Clippers/Lakers game thread. Clipshow beatdown in progress.

[midnightpulp]

Oops. Meant Clips/Suns. Honestly can't tell the difference these days between the Lakers and the Suns.

Anyhow, LA's best team doing work.

[irishock]

10/10, legitimately believed that it was LA vs LA.

[midnightpulp]

Shoulda been an And-1.

[Clipper Nation]

Suns are a pretty annoying team, tbh....

[midnightpulp]

I'm delighted every time Willie Green checks out.

[Clipper Nation]

I'm delighted every time Willie Green checks out.

He's only even on the team because CP3 likes him :lol

When Chauncey comes back, he'll be riding pine and getting zero minutes, tbh...

[midnightpulp]

Phew...

[JRHernandez88]

damn you had me

[midnightpulp]

Griffin's stroke looks nice.

[midnightpulp]

Crawford with a sweet move.

[Clipper Nation]

Griffin's stroke looks nice.

He's definitely starting to become an all-around great big... he's even improving defensively, tbh...

[midnightpulp]

Nice fuckin' sequence there.

[Clipper Nation]

Jamal is back, sons!

[midnightpulp]

He's definitely starting to become an all-around great big... he's even improving defensively, tbh...

If he turns into a knock down shooter from 18 feet, him and CP3 will be near unstoppable in the PnR.

[midnightpulp]

:lol

Wow

[Clipper Nation]

Blake da gawd :worthy:

[midnightpulp]

Perspective:

Jamal Crawford has 12 less points than Kobe did last night on 30 less shots :lol

[DPG21920]

Goran surrounded by scrubs..

[Clipper Nation]

Bench is just fucking around now, tbh... :lol

[Pelicans78]

Goran surrounded by scrubs..

That's his own fault.

[Pelicans78]

Jamal Crawford is what CP3 and the 2007-2008 Hornets needed. They didn't have a wing score who could create his own shot. That's why Jannero mutha-fuckin Pargo got so many minutes and shots.

[midnightpulp]

Lawler's Law imminent.

'It's the Law, folks.'

[DPG21920]

That's his own fault.

He built the team? It's not like he left a team that was great to be on a scrub team.

[Pelicans78]

He built the team? It's not like he left a team that was great to be on a scrub team.

But he knew he was signing for a scrub team anyway. Did he expect the join a playoff team in Phoenix? The Rockets had been the 9th seed the last two seasons and were in better shape due to the draft picks, young assets, and cap room. Plus, he broke out (not the Durant/DRose acne type) in Houston and basically told them to fuck off even though it was a better situation than Phoenix that's going no where.

Griffin is a player you can win a title with, tbh..I've defended him since last year against critics that constantly accuse him of being merely a monkeyballer..his post up game is decent, his face-up game is nice, his jump shot is progressing..he takes intelligent shots(for a star player), he's constantly active..

Excellent passer, as well.

The Rockets have been inept for a long time. He saw that first hand. It wasn't like he had a ton of choices and HOU didn't want to pay him. If you are going to be on a bad team, you might as well get paid better/in line with your services (lol paying Lin, but not Goran). Point is, this wasn't something where he left a great situation for a little more money. PHX whiffed big and now he's surrounded by scrubs. I hardly blame him for that.

[Clipper Nation]

13 straight, bitches!

Truth bombs, son... ESPN is giving people the wrong impression of him, focusing on his nasty dunks only, tbh...

I agree Houston has been inept, and I can't remember how much more PHX offered compared to Houston, but still, he really had no clue what direction PHX was going in this offseason. They went after Gordon when everyone knew NOLA would match. They gave Beasley a dumb contract after he was one of the worst players in the league the previous two seasons and really didn't do much else. Maybe the Suns can improve in the future, but its unlikely with the current owner they have who has proven to be inept as much as anyone.
