Let me be the first here to take the Clippers in 6! The Suns were exposed last series and they won't have an answer for Brand.

How's aliens defense these days?

Golem doesn't play defense at all anymore. He doesnt have the legs.

That said, he can still post up and score at will on any other PG.

Brand setting a new Clippers playoff record for points in a half, which is like Matt setting a WTF record for posts since 1996....

130-123? Nice.

This is quite the popular game thread.

I figured the Clippers would fare better than the Lakers because their post players are actually good.

Kstat
05-09-2006, 01:24 PM
Yeah, but they still dont play much defense.

And unlike the Lakers, the CLippers actually DO want to get out and run.

Black Dynamite

the clippers had the right gameplan. but the shots were coming too easy so easy that next thing you know they running with the suns. oh how they fell into the Suns trap. :(

The Clippers are playing a hybrid game and Cassell is punking out Nash so far. I love that fucking Alien. I hope he gets paid this Summer.

Well, thats makes it 3 series our of 4 tied 1-1 right now.

The Clips outrebounded the Suns 57-26.

Kaman could have outrebounded the whole team if he wanted to.

Did Marion just choke away 2 free throws to put his team up in the last minute of play?

Wow! 8 second violation on Cassell.

Both Nash and Cassell miss jumpshots. Tim Thomas throws the ball full court rather than call a timeout for a last possession.

Livingston made 2 bone-headed plays near the end, although Barkley disagrees with the out of bounds call.

Edit: Maybe Barkley is right after all.

Kstat

it was one bonehad play, and one phantom out of bounds call.

I saw Cassell's 8 second violation on ESPN this morning.

WTF was he smiling about?

How Embarassing!!

My dream of a Suns-Pistons finals is alive for yet another day.

Apparently he forgot about the shot clock running off a bit before they got the timeout called (immediately prior to the call). He had to go to Dunleavy and ask him what happened before he understood. The announcers said Bell (I think it was Bell) was talking to him as he came up the court.

Glenn
05-17-2006, 10:37 AM
I really like Raja Bell.

I was in favor of the Pistons going after him this offseason, and I really wish we could have landed him.

He did some work for ESPN during the playoffs last year and he really seems to have a good understanding of the game, and he was entertaining too.

He would have been a great addition to this team, much better than Evans, for sure. The chance at a starting role in PHX probably was a big draw for him.

Fool
05-17-2006, 10:41 AM
He'd be on the bench = he wouldn't play EVER.

If I were in the NBA I wouldn't want to be on the Piston bench.

Pharaoh
05-17-2006, 10:51 AM
Bell took more money, a starting job, better climate and an opportunity to actually shoot the ball a lot over a bench role, less money, worse climate and less shots?

No way! I can't believe it? Really? Are you serious? Damn!

Glenn
05-17-2006, 11:37 AM
Geez, I'm not saying that I'm surprised, especially since we never even had the chance to talk to him.

He was just somebody that would have made us a much better team, and he got the MLE, so I consider him a nice bargain for PHX.

As I said, just wishful thinking on my part.

Pharaoh
05-17-2006, 11:57 AM
I know you didn't say you were surprised, GD.

I just felt like fooling around.

Clips up 12 at the half......can they force a game 7?

Glenn
05-19-2006, 10:40 AM
Has anyone figured out why they played game 6 on a Thursday night and then game 7 is not until Monday?

They are going to totally miss the weekend TV opportunity and letting the fans in the east watch game 7 at a reasonable hour. I thought most of these decision were driven by TV? Why wouldn't they want a weekend game?

Does TNT just not do weekend games?

Darth Thanatos
05-19-2006, 12:01 PM
Game 7 baby!

It would be awesome if the Clipshow won, but the Suns have been the luckiest team in the playoffs. I'm starting to think they're more lucky than good. All the bounces go their way.

So yeah, go Clippers.
