    really, this series should be over and done with.
    Clippers just gave away 2 games to the Spurs with foolishness.
    Spurs won TWICE on Clippers home court.
    NO WAY that happens THREE times in a row.

    Clippers have the momentum back, D-Jordan was pissed and embarrassed
    and played great "D". Makes a big difference when he is hustling making shots.
    Spurs TOO OLD to do it again.

    might be Leonard's last game in San Antonio.
    He wants a younger team..

    Spurs done. He knows it.
    Even if they miraculously won this next game..
    next few years are finished for S.A.

      yep.. i think this is it. Game 7 out.

      Clips won this series. the Difference was not Duncan,
      the REAL difference was in this matchup was Pop vs. Rivers.

      Pop was too much.
      Pop is a far better card-player and can beat an opponent with a lesser hand.

      that it why it went 7.

      but the Clips were embarrassed BADLY at home TWICE.
      where they won, and just left the game on the table.

      The Clips WILL BE ON.. they will miss shots, but they will not play careless.
      They will make sure 100% effort both ends. And finish plays. Take care of Ball.

      Take the Clippers. EAT a single basket. (-2) right now

          fool me once shame on you, fool me twice– shame on me.


          a) They pretty much know what tricks Pop is going to run

          b) they have ALREADY been embarrassed TWICE in front of fans.
          they just won't permit it again.

          c) Pop pulled that out, because guys were nervous and insecure.
          but now they are pissed and determined.

          d) fouling Jordan, only works if he's nervous, and playing under capability.
          Jordan will be pissed and blocking shots, i expect Clippers to be ahead most
          if this game, if not all.

          e) he can't hack a DJ, if he is already behind, because it places too much
          psychological pressure for guys to hit all their shots.. and once they start missing them,
          it is downhill from there.

          Clips will play well, i don't think that an old bunch of men are going to beat a younger
          better team three times on their home floor in a single series.

          Clippers –2

          Pop, however gifted only has so many tricks.

              Hack a Jordan am be in full motion tomorrow. Pop will lose every player off bench of he had to. Could see Jordan taking 30 plus 40 or more FTs tomorrow. Should have inserted Bonner and Tiago last night and let them foul away instead of letting Paul year then up. No Big Baby, you think Hawes is a threat?. Guy has barely played this year.

                The Clips will give max effort, but effort is not their weakness. It's their mental game. They are really bad late in the shot clock, under severe pressure, they resort to just trying to jump the highest. SA moves the ball and finds the best shot better than any team in the history of NBA, everyone knows what to do and does it. I will take them +2 in a game 7 coming off a home loss vs any team in the NBA of the last 14 years. Remember, Spurs are the team coming off a loss because they let their mental guard down. Plus Splitter is getting better by the day and the refs will give the veteran team that never complains every benefit of every doubt vs the LA lucky ass billionaire boys club with all their clothes cars and commercials. You couldn't pay me to bet on that pack of shoulder slumping whiners.

                  Doc Rivers still has the ego of a typical NBA player. He would rather pay money than admit weakness.

                    His team reflects that attitude to the tee.

                          lol.. Clippers are better team. Pop won two games by himself,

                          no way they pulled that off three times.

                                last shot was HUGE.. but i do think he scolds guys openly too much..
                                in general, people do not respond well to public scolding.

                                i did think the Spurs would run out of gas, i thought Clips would win by more than 2 pts.

                                Legacy would have nosedived,, if he missed that shot and Spurs won in OT
                                i am really glad he pulled that off.

                                Good for him, needs more Lebron in him though,
                                build guys up, so anyone can hit that last second shot, not just him

                                Duncan will make excellent coach if he ever goes that rout, i doubt he would.
                                but great leader, no diva headaches.

                                CP3 is a bit of a Diva..

                                      i agree.. what a silly comment.

                                      Pop game 7 five years ago.. and Pop Game 7 today.. are totally different scenarios.

                                      Spurs are O-L-D

                                      they are lucky that the Clips have poor leadership.

                                      woulda been just 5 games vs. GSW
