i fucking knew the spurs were going to lose as soon that jack ass on FSN was talking about this game being a gimmie for the spurs.

They should just dump Davis, Bledsoe is so much better for their team.

Clippers owe the Warriors part of that win too.

Two thunder players neither of them named Kevin Durant went for over 35
tonight.

Convenient of you to neglect to mention that they went over 35 in triple overtime.

It only took how many overtimes? Against the Nets?

But Bledsoe is already a smarter player than Wall by a mile. I didn't think he'd be so game ready at this point though.

Edit: beaten silly

Westbrook has been making 30 look pretty easy as of late, the only surprise was jeff green stepping up.

Doesn't really matter who they played, the spurs lost to the clips tonight...

It definitely matters who you play.

Just look at Miami...

They blew out the Pistons tonight. Time for a thread title change?
 
It only matters in a playoff series, plenty of good teams are gonna get knocked off by scrubs on any given night. As far as individual numbers go 35 points is 35 points in the NBA period, this isn't college football or some shit.

You know good and well that dropping 35 on the Wizards isn't the same as 35 on the Celtics...

I like how you can't resist trolling 19/8 even in the most innocuous of posts.

That's true, but it's crazy to knock someones performance because of who they are playing in Professional sports, where every man is paid out the ass to perform.

Only nobody is knocking them for their performance or saying that their 35 points don't "count." What we're knocking is your direct comparison between them and the Clippers considering that tonight they had fifteen more minutes to accumulate $tats.

It was inadvertent this time, I swear. But Wall was getting clowned by Jose and Bayless. Fortunately for Wall, Raps play no transition D worth mentioning and he was allowed to score in the 2nd half - long after his team was out of the game. GJ Wall. Way to make Bayless feel wanted again.

Not knocking him. This is the 5th time he's dropped 30 this season and he's definitely picked up KD's slack so far, but he had 15 extra minutes to boost his $tats - in a game that his team should've taken care of in regulation.

I wasn't making a direct comparison to the clippers, my point was the Thunder can play without their best player and still win games. The clippers without Griffin are winless so theres really no comparison there. Are we gonna shit on Griffins big numbers because most of them end in losses?

The fact that Griffin's talent can shine through the Clipper taint is an achievement in itself. I'm sure many of us thought he'd be dead by now.

btw, Durant's been off all year long. Its nice to see Westbrook stepping up in his absence though.

The Kevin Durant-led Sonics finished 20-62 in his rookie year. The point of the comparison is that the Clippers seem to have a really great, young nucleus that could potentially rivals the Thunders in a few years.

my remark was more about how surprising it is that the Clips are as bad as they are. They have a quality young roster that IMO isn't THAT far off from the Thunder, yet OKC will probably win 50+ games while the CLips will win 20. Is Del Negro that bad? Is it just the Clipper stink?

Westbrook has been their best player this year, Durant still relies on jumpers to much whereas if Lebron is off he can bulldose to the whole for and 1's all night.

They have Blake Griffin who is a monster, i don't think the rest of the roster compare though. Thunder have two top five players in their position, then Ibaka who has alot of potential.

Clippers usual stink.

Plus their schedule so far has been kinda rough too, especially for such a young team. Vinny isn't all that bad really.... Injuries and Baron hurt though.
 
Damn it must be frustrating being a Clippers fan. All of a sudden you beat a good team out of nowhere, gets the hopes up, then bam, lose against whatever teams again. That said, they do have B dot Griffin so it ain't all bad!

Yes and no.

Do the clips have young players that could develop into something very special around Griffin, yes. They need help though, and plenty of it. Good coaching,some decent leadership in the locker room, and lots of good decisions by their GM and support from the owner at contract time.

The biggest difference between the clubs isn't the young core, but the front office.

Time playing together and everyone accepting their role.

Durant and.... who is the other top 5?

If the clips draft well this year and get someone who can genuinely shoot really well and help create on th wing (presuming aminu doesn't turn into this player) or get a centre that can be a real defensive force but spread the floor for griffin. They'll be a long way there.

Westbrook is a top 5 point guard.
