    nope cause that'll mean the "nba voters" would have to give credit to the "cancer" james harden for elevating the game of a career role-player

    Can someone enlighten me as to why did we ceded this game to Clippers? Wouldn't we have rather faced them in the playoffs??

    Certainly not worried about playing the Clips if they need to play their stars huge minutes against our scrubs at home

    Reed would go crazy on another team that treated him like a #3 pick

    LOL at all of you clutching your pearls at the mere of idea of playing the Warriors in round 1. F$@k those guys. I want us to send their old asses fishing.

    making 20 of 40 threes made it look deceptively close but it wasn't

    I was only halfway joking when I said he would get 30/20 tonight. The guy is playing at a completely different level this year. He's been a weapon for them, at times.

    certainly more entertained and impressed by our guys than I thought would be.
    hopefully we force the other LA to play their guys heavy minutes as well.

    Relax, we won't be playing the Warriors in the 1st round. Memphis will fall back in.

    This. ^

    I was thinking this the last 5 minutes of the game. We were forcing Leonard, Harden, Zubac, Bogdonavic onto the floor to finish out this game with our Stay-Ready-Crew. We're a really solid ball club if we can push a 4th seed team to the last few minutes when we played with 1 starter and 1 rotation guy.

    I'm proud of this team not giving in, not giving up, fighting to the end... that sends a message of hopelessness to other teams. I LOVE IT!
