we do need a new title since rivers can't carry his team anymore
By RBK Go To PostShould we bring up how Ron Artest saved Kobe from that 11-33 performance? Stop being silly.its gonna be a goddamn flopocalypse between paul and harden in a game 7
Over/under 20 FTs for Harden in Game 7?
Clips failing to close 3 games in a row would too much for Adam and Frenchman. Like, this is exactly how you would imagine the most successful Clippers season ending.
By fertygo Go To PostHow many Corey Brewer had point in that 4th quarter?14 or 15.
My favorite player
how does a 40-15 drubbing even happen? some semblance of pride should have activated in their heads to forestall or even avoid that kind of abuse.
By Trey Go To Posthow does a 40-15 drubbing even happen? some semblance of pride should have activated in their heads to forestall or even avoid that kind of abuse.The only pride the Clippers ever had was white pride and that's gone now.
By diehard Go To Posti hope there is another collapse or something in game 7cp3 in elimination games
Its all i have to be grateful for
McHale da God(after GM 3, but still applies):

Notable quotes:
Passing extraordinaire Joakim Noah is better though.
BONUS, since Frenchman loves the Rockets W-L record against .500 teams so much.
Still hyped from last night, need to find some DawkinsMTA highlight reels.

Notable quotes:
There will be a Game 7 in Houston on Sunday where in the history of Game 7s, the home team wins at least 90 percent of the time.
Only eight teams have ever come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a series, and one of them was the 1995 Rockets.Fuck TMac
Howard?
He scored only one point. But he grabbed five rebounds and blocked one shot. Overall, Howard's 20-point and 21-rebound night was a thing of beauty.
According to Elias Sports Bureau, he became only the third man in the last 40 years to have a 20-20 night with his team facing elimination on the road.
Passing extraordinaire Joakim Noah is better though.
And the Rockets as a team?Amazing stuff.
In their history – one that dates to San Diego in 1967 and features legendary players such as Calvin Murphy, Clyde Drexler, Hakeem Olajuwon and hundreds more on their roster – the Rockets had never won a playoff game when trailing by 10 points entering the fourth quarter (0-49).
Never.
Now they have.
BONUS, since Frenchman loves the Rockets W-L record against .500 teams so much.
The Clippers finished 9-10 against the other five teams in the top six of the Western Conference. (The Golden State Warriors, by comparison, finished 13-4 against the other five contenders).
Still hyped from last night, need to find some DawkinsMTA highlight reels.

YOO THAT STEPBACK JSMOOVE 3 WAS VICIOUS.
YOO THAT STEPBACK JSMOOVE 3 WAS VICIOUS.
I've literally never seen a team as shook and frantic as the Clips were down the stretch last night. Looked like a team of college kids flown in as a last-minute replacement.
I feel like RBK was the only one who kept the faith, while I lost my shit after the hack-a-shit. Props to McHale for sticking with the lineup that was getting it done. Please, please don't initiate the hacking next time. Hope Harden finds something for Game 7.
As for the rest, please keep up your negativity. Keep shitting on the Smoove acquisition, and maybe sprinkle in some Harden hate while you're at it.

By KingGondo Go To PostI've literally never seen a team as shook and frantic as the Clips were down the stretch last night. Looked like a team of college kids flown in as a last-minute replacement.I think they're not shook tho, they think they already won.. goes cold in the process, shit happens and might cost them heavily.
SQUAD.
Also truly LOVE how the narrative all damn season long was that the Rockets were a "Harden-centric" team yet not only did we win the game after being 19 down, we scored 40 in the 4th with him on the bench.
Keep grasping brehs.
Please McHale, don't make me look stupid.

Maybe my favorite part of this is the suddenly cocky attitude of Rox-SLAENT. You guys aren't fooling anyone. You can't believe it happened either.

At the same time, don't try to rain on our(or my own) parade. Go back to the offseason thread.
I'm actually hyped for game 7. Nothing would surprise me, including all the good players fouling out followed by Turkoglu hitting a buzzer beater over Papanikolaou.
That lineup for McHale in the 4th was playing some frantic defense. They just can't do that with Harden because he's a lazy fucker on that end.
Oh Btw,
Doc Rivers has lost 4 series as a coach after being up 3-2, going for #5 on Sunday.

By KingGondo Go To PostMaybe my favorite part of this is the suddenly cocky attitude of Rox-SLAENT. You guys aren't fooling anyone. You can't believe it happened either.I had to watch that second half again. I knew that it happened watching it live, but I still don't really get how. The momentum should be on our side, but I really don't know with this series. Knowing our luck, this was some sort of cruel set up for an Austin Rivers game-winning BS three.
Still, knocking Josh Smith after he did what he did in the Mavs series was dumb. Knocking a team's depth when their starting PG and most improved player are out injured also seemed dumb.

yall cats always talkin shit and a unlikely comeback happened.
Cp3 out there flopping and pointing to the crowd, techs everywhere , reilo up here posting like he about to bust a nut, SLAENT in general was ready to "but Morey"
But no
DY unleashed his super powers and combined with my avy change it was too much.
DEAL WIT IT
Bless you SVG for Smoove da gawd
Gotta say... McHale has been by far the better coach in this series. Made great adjustments when doc is just floundering. Putting smoove in the starting lineup, keeping haren on the bench last night, keeping Dwight out there with two fouls kept him engaged. Dwights been a fuckin beast

By RBK Go To PostKeep grasping brehs..
By Smokey Go To Postif only our dear leader reilo was here to answer this for usI get up at 6:30am every day, but you still love me though.

I didn't ask for your daily schedule bish
you love the Rockets more than the Blazers breh
By Smokey Go To PostI didn't ask for your daily schedule bishThen why you asking my friends where I'm at though...
By psychintellect Go To Post[Don't get carried away.
Spo>doc
An entire team that looked like it was a deer in headlights. I don't think I've ever seen that before.
That was the biggest mental collapse on the offensive end I think I've ever witnessed.
I'm speechless.

it broke your heart to watch rockets force a game 7
I know you had twitter quotes on deck you ain't foolin anybody
By RBK Go To PostDon't get carried away.I don't think doc has made one adjustment all series.
Maybe he hasn't had to but I don't really think the clippers have played really well in this series, especially in second halves.
Spo>doc.
By db Go To PostHaha Smokey what you don't know could fill a library.
Hahahaha
As a blazer fan whos team has been at home for 2 weeks+ and biggest FA is about to leave yall for the fuk franchise you are
Explain to me what I don't know
Besides you trying so hard last night to make a funny to hide your salt. At least reilo cried by himself on the bus ride to darkness
By Smokey Go To Postit broke your heart to watch rockets force a game 7Bruh I couldn't give a fuck about the Rox this season. You guys are the ones catching feelings from a year ago... My team didn't lose to y'all. At least my comeback memory was on a series winner and not some "but we still got one more game to hopefully not fuck this up" shit. Look back and you see I dislike the Clippers just as much. Lob city went flub city.
I k ow you had twitter quotes on deck you ain't foolin anybody
This series had 'MVP' Harden sitting in a 20 point comeback, Chef Rivers and Josh Smith draining stepback threes and McHale throwing shit on a wall to see what sticks best and somehow lucking into "what if I sat Harden..." kermit.gif thought bubble and IT ACTUALLY WORKING. Either way, this is the kinda fuckball that makes shit supremely entertaining cause I don't give a shit who wins.
Look at Rox fans still talking about me rather than why Harden sat in the fourth. Let's talk basketball...
Blazers fans now want to talk basketball lmao yall cats ain't never wanted to talk anything rockets except when it's time to clown
reiLo
Struck a nerve I guess. I guess non Blazer fans also recognizing the absence of Harden were just in my imagination.
Again…
By RBK Go To PostKeep grasping brehs..
Blazers-Brehs, you guys are obsessing over the Harden benching instead of the very real possibility that the Rox will lose in soul-crushing fashion in Game 7.
This series has already shown us new depths of fuckery. WE NEED TO GO DEEPER.

Nobody stopping you from talking about what you want to talk about. You have so much basketball knowledge, why don't you share the wealth and get a discussion going db.
How bout it
