Jesus. Clippers suck and OKC is on fire.

Yeah, can we just start watching San Antonio and OKC already?

Clips are back in it

Believe it or not, Chris Paul is locking down KD.

But the real mismatch is Collison on Westbrook, and Russell for the most part is exposing it by posting up

Wow

Wow indeed

What an incredible game!

Griffin has played a heck of a game. That guy is tough (suddenly)

Wow great finish. Hero ball

Holy crap I can't believe the Clippers won this. I gave them up for dead when they were down 16 with <10mins left.

Yesssssss

Westbrook helped OKC snatch defeat from the jaws of victory again.

What did he do this time? I didn't watch, just followed the boxscore.

Four games down in this series and the only game I felt like the Clips were in control was Game 1. Yet they've won 2 of them and been in 3 of them at the end. I still doubt the Clippers win this series but man this has gotten much better.

Wow - Clippers outscored 38-24 in the 4th to win by 2. Take it to seven!

I could make a living off of giving seminars to NBA and college teams on end of the game clock management. I know I shouldn't be but I'm dumbfounded time and time again how dumb teams are at the end of games. I feel like my middle school basketball team back in the day had a better understanding of what to do at the end of games than the best players and coaches in the world. It's unbelievable.

Deputy, not really following what DC is putting down. I was only half watching until the last few minutes, I'll admit, but I don't think he did anything to cost them the game. Maybe I missed something though or maybe DC just thinks every Thunder loss is his fault like half the country does.

Ok so I guess he just took way too many shots in the last 6 min when Paul is on Durant. Not surprised.

If a team is willing to give up a half foot+ in size by putting Paul on Durant, how do you not post up Durant and feed him? That is exactly what every team ever did when the Spurs had Avery Johnson. Suddenly Spud Webb becomes a post up threat.

Westbrook also took a 3 at the end from 3-4 feet behind the arc instead of driving or passing to get a better shot.

Ya I thought DC was talking about that last shot but I didn't see anything wrong with it. He got a pretty good look.

For some reason, the Clippers purposely had Chris Paul guarding Durant and I think Durant only touched the ball twice in the last 6 minutes. It was all Westbrook hero ball.

That's not how it happened at all. JVG made a good point about small guys getting more liberties guarding bigger guys. After Doc made the switch to get Paul on Durant, Paul basically had both of his hands wrapped fully around KD before OKC got into their sets. He couldn't get open at all and the refs weren't calling **** on Chris Paul.

Westbrook was destroying Collison on the offensive end. He took it to the hole like 4 times on him since Collison couldn't stay in front of him.

The last play was messed up because they didn't have any timeouts and Sefolosha tossed it to Westbrook at halfcourt with only 5 seconds left.

The Clippers shot 3-21 from the 3pt line. It's like the basketball gods are punishing them after gifting them that crazy game 1.

Oh and Chris Paul is 9 or 10 inches shorter than Durant. Not a half a foot

So nine inches would fall under "Half a foot plus", correct?

I can only hope OKC attempts to play hero ball against the Spurs. One dude dribbling around and taking a shot after 15 seconds <<<<< 5 players passing the ball trying to get the best look.

Yeah but 4 inches is a lot more than plus

Is this a dirty play by Westbrook?

Watch the recap. On the second play, Westbrook intercepted a pass to Paul and streaked down the court. As he neared the basket, he peeked over his shoulder and saw Paul, and then a few steps later threw a head-level clear-out elbow as he started the layup.

I don't know if he was just trying to draw contact, but he missed Karl Maloneing Paul by just a few inches.
