Paul has more bad passes causing turnovers...and still has the nerve to flop/whine. Unbelievable. Let's go Clips.

Don't understand Vinny's lineup. You have a chance to pretty much end this series and Paul and Jordan have sat for long stretches. I know Paul is playing with an "injury" but you've got to use him.

and Jordan > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Martin, who is a scrub.

Put Paul in, bam 4 point play.

When he puts Jordan in the Martin fouls will turn into Deandre stuffs.

Clippers are cursed.

How so?

This is random, but the Grizzlies have a badass fanbase. They were loud and those yellow towels were awesome.

I kinda wish A&M would bring the 12th man towels to Reed instead of exclusively for Kyle. It creates an awesome atmosphere

The Clippers shot 57% from the field, 56% from 3, and still lost.

Grizzlies won the scoreboard battle though.

Grizzlies won the offensive rebounds battle (16-4) and the turnover battle (12-20).


And as mentioned above they decisively won the pro wrestler battle...at least tonight.

Win 1 in LA and home court is regained.

what a little whiny ass b.tch.

I hate Chris Paul.

Reggie Evans strikes again

Apparently there was a fan that had a shirt that said "No Flop Zone" and had a picture of Fake on it.

They have an awesome fanbase during the playoffs just like every other NBA team that makes it to the playoffs. During the regular season they only sold about 80% of their tickets for each game which is pathetic considering they're the 4th seed.

The fan base is interesting because the majority of the basketball fans in town really care more about the Tigers than the Grizzlies, especially those who are locals.

It makes for real shaky attendance during the regular season, but when they show up at playoffs, they give pretty strong crowd support. It doesn't help that it is a poor, small market that will always struggle to support the team.


I cheer for the Tigers, but unlike a lot of fans here, even when the Grizzlies were bad, I would have rather seen them vs. Shaq and the Suns, or the Spurs, or Dirk, then the Tigers beat up on Rice or Tulane.

Chris Flop flopped getting a technical against Speights.

Chris Paul is the William Shatner of the flop.

Yeah there was barely any contact on the drive just before the half. Then Fake stole a terrible pass and dunked it. Down by 4 at half not bad not good.

Apparently, Fake is the only player getting hard fouls this year.

I'm kinda getting tired about hearing that story, unless they start talking that the Clippers getting the flop calls and having some of the dirtiest players in the league.

Rudy needs to step up as well, but props to Caron Butler for playing.

Clippers so lucky Billups went down with an injury. Young and Foye are killing it

Yeah I agree I do not know why the announcers are building up Billups so much. He was amnestied for a reason.

Fake flops to draw the 5th on Marc.

This doesn't look good.

This is BY FAR the best series in basketball. Can we get some more primetime versions of this?

Still alive somehow.

Wow, Bledsoe with a monster choke

So close!!!

dodged a bullet there

Connely should have taken it to the rim, he only had to beat 1 defender.

Bad execution but then again they had no more timeouts.

If things were just slightly different Grizzlies could be up 3-0.

Clipps buying the spurs more time to scout. Can't believe Memphis is playing so crappy.
