NBA 2015 Season Talk

...and even that might not be enough. The Spurs/Clips are playing on a different level.
 
Spurs and Clippers showing that HCA doesn't mean much to them.

Only by comparison. :cool:

SA has made only .701% of their ft's in the postseason (fourth from the bottom). Hou is 2nd worst at .679%, while the Clips are dead last at .628%.

true...very true... but where numbers lie.... when the game is close in the 3rd or 4th......pop is fouling the right guys... so paul and jj, become d jordan... and 3 point leads become 3 point deficits... or big baby... which is just as bad...o_O
 
the dallas mavs players voted note to give rondo a piece of the playoff money they earned....


rick james..... cold blooded....
 
CJ McCullom, & Myers Leonard performing well when forced into action due to injury...... Will Barton, and T. Robinson contributed in other places once traded.... even Luke Babbitt found somewhat of a role.... It makes me wonder how good of a player developer Terry Stotts is.... I do think he's a good coach.... What happened to Steve Blake... he just disappeared.

Stotts is not aplayer developer.
That role will be with someone else on staff.

Stotts is a game manager and X's and O's guy and he is good at that.

What he may lack that really matters is the charisma to keep Aldridge.

The Mavs will certainly try to sell that they have the Coach who taught Stotts everything he knows.

good possibility.
 
Boris, and Marco played hard, made big plays... but no one played bigger than chris paul in the second half...
good game, game 7 willl live up
 
Clips in 7 has been my thought all along and I'll stick to that given the home court (which has admittedly been meaningless thus far).

This is the biggest game in the last 20 years of Clippers basketball in a town where they can steal the largest fan base in basketball.
Think the Clips size and strength is enough especially with home officiating being what it is in the NBA.

This is a stupid series to have in round one. Will be interesting to see if Big Baby is out for game 7. If he is, expect Pop to give Jordan a police escort to the FT line.

Honestly, the Spurs have played poor enough to lose this series in five games. Marco nearly bailed them out last night, and Patty did in game 5. Parker, Green and Splitter have been playing like crap. Hopefully this series is a wakeup call like last year's round 1. Either way, the Rockets are in for a lot of trouble next round.

Hopefully, whoever the Rockets will play is worn out from this series.

Also, how does a team lose by 54 in the playoffs???

Clippers were arguably toughest match up for Spurs round 1 because of size and physicality.
They aren't great at executing but they wear on you.

I think the Rox are gonna have a real shot at winning the next series because they are rested and largely healthy while the winner of spurs/clips limps in tired.
Rockets D12/Harden/Josh combo is a tough one if they keep their composure.
I'd actually give the Clips a better chance of winning just because they are so physical that Houston is very likely to try and match that then realize their main guys are too valuable to get in foul trouble.

The Spurs are really good though and Pop finds answers where there seem to be none so who knows.

Doing away with divisions/conferences for playoff seeding and selection has never looked more sensible.

They say it was a sprain, but nothing about that looked like a sprain. It didn't roll at all on the replays, it almost looked like he straight legged it. They said he screamed when they tried to move him. I'd be shocked if it wasn't an achilles.
 
Well there will now be a new champion. I am in a down state right now. I am very disappointed with how this series went. IMO, the Spurs gave it away with poor FT shooting and even poorer defense rebounding. As much as I hate to say it, I have to give the Clippers credit. They didn't back down, no matter the obstacle. They answered every challenge the Spurs put in front of them. So my basketball season is over.

I hope it is the Hawks and Warriors in the Finals....with the Hawks winning.....Go Coach Bud and Go Hawks.

Time to get ready for the draft.......
