    From the get go, I saw GSW adjust and play beautiful ball. I don't know what people here are saying that they are playing bad. Clippers just started red hot HCA

    Actually I would rather draw OKC, the clippers are just a terrible matchup. Vs OKC we can count on at least 2 games where westchuck will implode. I'll take a wildcard like that over a 0% chance of beating LAC.

    This game alone has shown he has a pretty good post game.

    The warriors just do a great job on the clippers defensively. They are a fluke team but matchup well with LAC as well.

    Right, what I mean though is that the Clippers/OKC would be a brutal series and the winner might come out battered. I don't see GSW giving OKC much problems.

    Of course this is very premature. Clippers are still going to the 2nd round, who are we kidding?

    NBA is so much about match-ups. Warriors are definitely the inferior team but they play Clippers tough. Clippers have a very tough playoff bracket. This series looks like it could be tougher and longer than a lot of people predicted. We'll see.

    Same here. We've actually had close games with OKC. The Clippers are the team I'm scared of the most.

    At least with OKC there is a chance that they will play undisciplined and stupid.

    Not just bad match up but terrible coaching from Mchale.

    So "pretty good" means he is a top player in this league like 90% of people say? Cool standards

    Well you asked what the hype was. What do you want me to say? He's got a good post game, he's a great passer, and he's amazing in transition. He also has a decent jumper this year.

    I want absolutely no part of the Clippers. I don't think they're a true title contender, but they've got our number just as bad as Seattle did back in the championship years.

    That wasn't a foul on Griffin.

    I'm no Blake Griffin fanatic, but if you don't realize he's a top player in the NBA, then you're just in denial or don't have a clue...

    Paul and Griffin getting taken out of the game with foul trouble. Reddick can't be their best player if they expect to do anything.
