I'm saying all it takes is one bad mistake at the end of a game to ruin a series momentum. And the Blake TO in the second game changed the entire series.

C'mon Leonard, get to 40. I know he won't because they're too unselfish.

BEAT LA!
Ha...you guys had that one first round upset though.
You said the series is gonna be 2-1 because of him. That's absurd. It was a mistake at a big time but they wouldn't be in any of these game without him. He's their biggest advantage in this series and he's played very well.

Chris Paul will be forever ringless

Doc should go to the thunder , boom

They are combined 12 because they know they don't have to do much. Ducan stepped up when they needed him in game 2,etc
Yeah that one was painful to watch. Made it seem like the Spurs dynasty was old and finished.

Well I hope after this game he uses his leadership to get this team going the next game. I'm no clipper fan but I do want an L.A. team to go deep in the playoffs.

Time for the Clippers to go on a 30 point run.
That's a crazy stat and is the insane thing about the Spurs. One game they win by pounding the ball into a 38 year old post player - the days of winning games by doing that in today's NBA are pretty much gone. Then today they win a game like this.
I think Doc is an above average coach, but Pop is Pop.
It would be 1-2 right now but Blake choked. It's not absurd at all. He is why they lost game 2.

Bayern vs. Porto: Basketball Edition.
That wouldn't be a good fit, in my opinion. Thunder need a coach with some offensive creativity - Doc is not that coach.
You're crazy if you don't think the soul of the clips wasn't ripped out at this point.
Same here. Duncan doesn't even have to score and the Spurs depth is killing the Clippers.

Calling it now, the Clips wont win another game in this series.

The Spurs haven't needed to do much. Leonard took the game over on both sides of the ball.
No it's absurd. He's only the reason they lost if the game started with 30 seconds left. It was a huge turnover, no doubt. I don't think he should've had the ball in that area of the court, but whatever.
And it happened with 15 seconds or so, it's not as if he could've dribbled out the clock. And Mills' FTs only tied the game.
Like I said though, Blake's been great this series with the exception of two minutes or so there. Saying they're down 2-1 because of him is narrow-minded and silly.
11 seconds left up 2 you have an unforced turnover allowing them to tie the game and it's not his fault?

Maybe the next game in their home? [hope not of course! ]
I think it probably was, but that's been my issue with them all year. I don't think they have the mental toughness or discipline or coaching to win the title, and Blake and Chris being the stars plays a major role in that. If it didn't happen that game or this series, it would've eventually. But pinning it on a guy who has probably been the best player in this series is dumb; I understand we always have to have a 'choker' though.

It's like watching Brock/Cena match. No contest
His length and versatility forced a Spurs turnover on literally the possession before that when he disrupted their possession.
Either way, say he 'blew' that game. How the hell is this game his fault?

Spurs in 6. I don't see the Clippers winning a game in San Antonio.
I agree. Could even see 5. The scary thing is that the Spurs got in rhythm in the second half this game, their shooters got reps, and Ginobili Parker and Duncan had to do basically nothing. We've seen this show before.

Spurs are like Super Saiyans. They have to get beat up at first until their full power is unleashed.

I don't know why you guys are counting Blake Griffin and Chris Paul out.
They have plenty of time to do more commercials.

The Spurs would have been the 2 seed with a win in their last regular season game, and possibly have been considered the favorite to come out of the west.
Doc has been a bad GM especially compared to the Spurs. CP3 has no Patty Mills to back him up and etc.
