Things just got Crazy in the West...

That was a nail-biter from the Spurs/Clippers game. I had no clue who was going to win. It looked like it was going to be the Spurs originally in the 4th but they couldn't buy a bucket. The Clippers couldn't buy free-throws as the Hack-a-Deandre strategy was in full force. Matt Barnes was given some freebies too but he couldn't make them in. He was off all night to be real. But yeah, I feel like the Clippers couldn't won this game but Blake Griffin's two lame turnovers cost the team. Tim Duncan was a beast in this game. Huge effort from him. We got an even series here and an enjoyable one. I hope the Clippers still win this series.

Surprised that the Nets have kept their series close with the Hawks. Unless this means the Hawks are a real pretender and not contender. Who knows. The Hawks are going to need to win this series convincingly if they want to look like contenders. The Nets need to utilize Brook Lopez constantly. He's been such a beast for the last month or so. Meanwhile his twin brother's team the Blazers continue to look helpless against the Grizzlies. There isn't much to say here as the Grizzlies are in full health with the return of Tony Allen. The Blazers are going to be lucky to win one game.

Tonight was such a Heartbreaking loss. DeAndre's basket interference call was very very costly...

I don't know if it's because of their relative inexperience to the Spurs but...In the two losses at Staples Center the Clippers have managed to shoot themselves in the foot, turning victory into defeat. =_=

Clippers/Rockets Game 2 facts:
Game last 2 hours and 58 minutes. That's as long as a football game.
67 combined fouls.
96 combined free-throw attempts for both teams.
Hack-a-Dwight and Hack-a-Deandre strategy for both teams to use.

Good lord.

In the end, though...Rockets just got destroyed

Epic choke job by the Clippers last night in Game 6. They had it won. Now I have no idea who will win Game 7. The Rockets have come alive and wont go down without a fight.

Houston Prevailed. Clippers tried hard to keep close but it was too little, too late at that point. Rockets have found themselves, especially after Game 6.

Being Clippers fan is suffering...

And being a Bulls fan is also devastating but oh well. I won't be surprised when the Cavs will finally win the NBA Championship trophy.

I feel bad for you guys man. To be up 3-1 and looking like the dominant team in all those 4 games, it hurts to see them just flat out lose 3 straight games. Kevin McHale starting Josh Smith proved to be a huge difference. His shooting was on point for once. The Clippers seriously need to get a better bench. When your main bench guys are 3 veterans (Crawford, Davis, Turkoglu) and Austin Rivers you got problems.

We had a North vs South...with the Kings and Lakers...I was expecting a North vs South with the Warriors and the Clips...THE WARRIORS WERE EXPECTING TO MEET THE CLIPS!!!



Golden State (after hearing Rockets advance): ...err...um...uh...I though we were facing the Clippers.




Sometimes I face palm on how "Texas" makes Cali look like chumps.
