Great win. It was especially great to see Steve Blake who's struggled most of the season come up HUGE in the clutch.

They definitely will be. That's why I laugh when I hear the Spurs fans saying the Clips will be an easy out. No team that has Chris Paul on it will be on it. Not to mention a very athletic frontline that can cause problems for the Spurs. I'm not saying the Clippers would win, but I wouldn't be shocked at all if they did.

One man can only do so much. He led a mediocre Hornets team to the playoffs 3 out of 4 years. In 2008 they beat Dallas and pushed the Spurs to 7. In 2009 they lost to Denver in 5, but they were incredibly outmatched talent wise. They didn't make it in 2010 because Chris was injured most of the year. Last year he pushed the then defending champion Lakers to 6 games without David West. This season he's made a team that was the laughing stock of sports to a legit contender. The guy is a great, great basketball player and a great competitor as well. That's why I was so pissed off and still am that the CP3 trade to the Lakers was vetoed. He would've made life so much easier for an aging Kobe and he would've made Bynum even better than he is now. Also we would've had the two best competitors in the league on the team.

I don't ever count out a Karl coached team. They're not just gonna roll over for us.

let me see if i got your hypocritical statement down. so the clippers have been a bunch of scrubs and CP3 all year! and now, they are about to play the spurs and they are good? and how bout you look at that 2008 roster, that team was a LOT better than this clippers team, and manu played that year with a broken ankle (his first of the 4 straight years he was hurt in the playoffs) and they STILL couldnt beat the spurs!

the clippers have NO chance! they got blown out twice vs the spurs and only won a game tony parker didnt play in, and dont give me your bull crap that regular season doesnt matter because it does, you just have selective memory on when it matter or not. if it didnt matter then the winners of every regular season series but the bulls wouldnt be on their way to winning every series so far!

I really don't care that they got beat by the Spurs a couple of times in the regular season because it doesn't mean anything. The playoffs are a whole different animal. We see it year after year teams who lose a regular season series against a team end up winning against that same team in the playoffs. The 2008 Hornets team wasn't that good at all. It was basically CP3, West, Chandler, and a bunch of scrubs. The Clippers are most certainly better from a talent perspective. You've got CP3 who's been the best player in the playoffs so far, Griffin (Yes he's a flopping *****, but he's still a top 5 power forward), Butler, Jordan, Foye, Mo, Bledsoe, Reggie Evans. That's a pretty good team right there.

chicago won series 2-1, now down 3-1

orlando won series 3-1, now down 3-1

those teams have a reason, injuries to their best player

miami won series 3-0, now up 3-1

boston won series 2-1, no up 3-1

spurs won series 3-1, now up 3-0

OKC won series 3-1, won playoff series 4-0

LAL won series 3-1, now up 3-1

clippers won series 2-1, now up 2-1

so thats 6 of 8 series, with the other 2 missing top 5 players!
