    Dallas isn't a team that will just bend over against the Spurs. Carlisle will make Pop work. Though those 15 first half TO played a major part. If Dallas manage to win one at home, this is going to 7 games.

    Dwight howard is a great player but doesnt have heart. He never worked enough on fts and finishing away from the basket, so its remarkable he is as good a he is. James harden, a great offensive player, but the worst sg defensively i have ever seen. If u want to do as little as possible, at least stay in front of your man! How can a professional, millionaire athlete not compete defensively?

    I love aldridges game, i would love him to get through this round! I think he can be the modern td21 and can see pop making a move for him in the future

    The bobcats are a good team, they have one of the best cs in the league, a promising pg, a nice 2 and one of the best man defenders in the league who can make it slightly more difficult for james. If al jeff was fit, they might steal a game. Bob mcrobb is a decent point forward too

    Paul injured his hamstring on Monday, missed practice, but says he'll play tonight. This is a concern.

    I just saw this article on Grantland regarding Chris Paul and his success (or lack of) in the post-season.

    http://grantland.com/the-triangle/the-clippers-and-the-chris-paul-paradox/

    The ending is brilliant. “When all is said and done, it doesn’t matter how unbelievable CP3 can be in the playoffs. The person who defines how we remember Chris Paul is probably Blake Griffin.

    There is nobody on the Warriors who can do a damn thing about Blake Griffin.

    I would trade four, maybe five of our healthy players for Bogut right now.

    It would be shame for warriors to go out, maybe the best fanbase in whole of nba.

    He's been really good this series. But all we've got for rim protection is old man ONeal who's arms just don't move that fast anymore. Jordan is killing everyone on the boards. Only thing that can save us is Splash Brothers going ham.

    Durant isn't the one talking about 8 championships or how it will all be easy

    Griffin would have got his 25ppg with Bogut, probably a little tougher and with a worse FG%. The one most benefiting is Jordan IMO. This game is so much fun. :D

    Very happy I discovered this thread. Love the game and play a lot myself. These playoffs so far have been phenomenal. Crawford starting to heat up!

    ^lol

    Clippers got what they wanted in Oakland. Curry was insane for the last 3 minutes, huge three's. This could've ended a lot uglier for the Clippers. Anyway a win is a win and I'll take it. Game 3 will be interesting.

    The Draymond Green last foul was a load of crap.

    Good game though.

    That could've been called a charge for sure. I guess it balances out that missed call on Paul in game 1. This series is really as interesting and tough as it was predicted. Imagine the series with Bogut, every game would be a game 7.
