this is the worst basketball game ever.

shouldn't both of these teams be accustomed to 1pm games? I don't think having to travel from LA to memphis should have this much of an effect.

No way man. A 10 am local start for a west coast team in a game 7? so dumb of the nba.

 

[ThisWreckage]

Neither one of these teams has an offensive flow of any sort. It doesn't even look like they're running sets. And it's been like that the whole damn series. Compare San Antonio's offense to these two teams. Yikes.

 

[Igladius]

Is it just me or is Pau way better at speaking English than his brother Marc?

VDN doesn't know what a set is.

 

[Srsly]

Why are the refs letting the Grizzlies get away with murder but the Clippers can't touch them? That last foul on CP3 was obviously a continuation, but the refs called it on the floor. This is garbage reffing

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Butler. Ugh

 

[methodman]

Is it just me or does Marc look like an actual human being while Pau looks like a freak?

 

[marathonfool]

These are two poorly coached teams playing in a physical game. It's too bad because they're both talented teams.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Let's just call the winner as the first team to break 40 and get on with the rest of everyone's day.

 

[JoeFu]

Great show of free throw shooting going on here.

 

[h3ro]

Silly Memphis fans... don't they know that the white shirt on the seat means its reserved and not to be sat in?

they're actually sitting in the seats and wearing the shirts lol

No worries, they can tune in at 3:30 today and watch how its done!

not sure if I'm reading this right..

Memphis, Tennessee is not pacific standard time right.

Clippers have had 3:30 EST games which would be 12:30 EST.

both teams should be accustomed to this.

 

[Nori Chan]

lol cp3

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Even flopping after the whistle. Disgraceful.

 

[linsivvi]

Game would've been way better had they started just an hour later.

 

[Igladius]

Is it just me or does Marc look like an actual human being while Pau looks like a freak?

hahahaha

 

[Black Mamba]

this game needed to start later. They look like they're playing too early. body clocks messed up.

Thanks stern.

 

[h3ro]

Only if lebron is able to wash all that blue paint off his legs in time.

 

[Malleymal]

Hahaha. That flop at the end of the half was amazing

 

[filler]

lol at that kid begging for an autograph inthe tunnel and cp3 just completely ignoring him.

 

[Forceatowulf]

Chris Paul.. just give it a rest for one fucking game man. Just one fucking game...

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Game should had been the late game, but clips play a good number of early games because lakers get the late starts at staples

 

[GremlinFool]

Memphis will start to pull away midway through the third, book it.

 

[filler]

That McDonald's commercial, damn black people are so cool!

 

[jjasper]

Play like dogshit down 1 and starting to play better. I'll take it.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Chris Paul.. just give it a rest for one fucking game man. Just one fucking game...

U wouldn't say that if he was a laker in a game 7

 

[Nori Chan]

Thanks stern.

sounds like you just woke up lol

 

[ThisWreckage]

Randolph is going to elbow drop Paul before the game is over.

 

[Emwitus]

Good music today!!

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Because of this game, the words "tough" and "physical" will now be synonymous with shameball.

Can't we give the Spurs a bye in the next round and be done with it?

 

[methodman]

Magic: "Blake Griffin has not found his game..."

Pretty much.

 

[Black Mamba]

sounds like you just woke up lol

nah, just looks like most the players are sluggish.

It's weird for your body when do a physical activity around the same time every day, then all of a sudden do it 8 hours earlier one random day.

 

[Diprosalic]

seems like both teams play for the privilege to get swept by the spurs.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Magic: "Blake Griffin has not found his game..."

Pretty much.

Kind of hard to find what isn't there.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Lebron doesn't wear socks? Grimy.

 

[Black Mamba]

Lebron. So humble.

 

[Mothman91]

Kind of hard to find what isn't there.

looool.

Watched the games at a sixer's fan's house last night and all I have to say is that when Kobe plays in that balance of scorer/distributer the Lakers are so much better it's not even funny

My god you're stupid. Kobe was doubled all game, everyone on our team was hot, and we still only won by a few points. Just because you want him to be Lebron, doesn't mean it's what's best for this team.


Sure, when both bigs are efficient and establishing low post position. When our outside shooters are hitting shots, and when Kobe's doubles are creating quality shots early in the shot clock for everyone else, he should pass as much as last night. But that NEVER happens.

We lose this game if Kobe is passive and Blake and Artest miss a few more open shots...which based in their percentages is perfectly normal. Also, Kobe is rarely doubled all game and passing to perimeter players to shoot contested shots is just insane.


Kobe's best game of the series was game 2. 38 points...took over in crunch time to win a close game....shot the ball really efficiently.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

oh wow a bunch of shitty music acts at the billboard music awards. incredible!

 

[white dynamite]

There's no bite marks on Kate's jalapeno burger. The fuck?

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

I sure hope the Clips don't make it to the next round. Don't need another LA team getting swept next round.

she's getting her teeth fixed

I think what he means is Kobe didn't try to force his shots, which he does against doubles a lot, when the other guys had it going.

But I kept saying all season on here that playoff Kobe isn't as selfish as regular season Kobe. If he sees the other guys doing their thing, he's going to feed them. And he did. I agree, game 2 was his best game, but he played a very smart game last night. It's not just that he passed because he was doubled. He intentionally got in certain spots to draw the double to create open space for teammates.

 

[Omzz]

finally, now things are picking up for memphis

 

[NomarTyme]

How is that a shooting foul? wtf Gundy?
