Well, well, well. Shocked Definitely not surprised this is now nail biting time in the playoffs for us Clipper fans… well, except for the 'now' part. Love that Doc Rivers came to the Clips but this team has not passed the eye-test of this long-time Clippers fan all season. I do think they'll bounce back in this series and move on but there's certainly no guarantee that will happen.

So many of the components have improved so dramatically this season, team numbers are incredible, points scored, fast break points, perimeter defense, etc. DJ. Blake's all around game. All that stuff is great and that's why the team won a couple more games this year than last year's previous record season for wins. But I'd take last season's team in many many ways over this year's Clippers. You know those strides combined with a team that is as cohesive and all out hustle … yeah… we'd have a championship level ball club. I just don't see it this year and I've been predicting rough days ahead in the playoffs the entire second half of the season.

I don't know if anyone noticed what a force Big Baby was in game one. Pregame showed him LEADING the pre game all hands huddle. Seriously? This is HIS job now? Emotional leader of the Los Angeles Clippers. He played like a man on fire Saturday. Why aren't our guys as fired up as a guy who just came aboard? Rolling Eyes

Anyway.

Even with Bogut in the lineup, the Clippers' frontcourt is just too much for the Dubs. Without him, well ... things like last night happen. Laughing

Would love to see my Warriors move on, but it ain't happening.

Gawd I'm so sore. There's significantly more physical activity required at a tense (game seven) playoff game. I feel like I was making over my head layups and back flips all night. I also didn't know I had ANY of that in me at this age. Shocked

No Sterling saga… this thing might have been over in five games.

But this one…

There was a real bad energy in the building for most of the game. The whole atmosphere (at least this game) was not at all what it seems like watching on TV. And the first half was I think for everyone there except the many Warriors fans, kind of a nightmare. Our team was tight, turning the ball over, missing layups and open jumpers… and those guys couldn't miss. I could see so many people just staring straight ahead, as if in shock, not even watching the action on the floor.

Seeing all that, all I could attribute it to was the Sterling bullshit. There was a dark cloud over the game. Still.

It really wasn't until Collison's first free throw dropped in, giving the Clippers a five-point separation with just two seconds left that I think everyone started to accept that we would win the game.

In short, it was fucking rough. Shocked If you have a good TV…. I wouldn't so much envy people who are there.
