NBA: Los Angeles Clippers (3) vs San Antonio Spurs (6) First Round Playoff Series Thread

u make a late run with kawhi, mills and belli hittin 3 3s to get the lead down to 12

then u go and chuck in that turd enrique for mills, then lead goes back up

seriously enrique does nothing on offense when his shots aint falling, especially when the team is daring him to shoot, all he does is dribble down the clock and n othing else on defense...at leasts mills provides shooting, spacing, and hustle defence...

playoff popovich is most glorious popovich

[TDMVPDPOY]

what killed the spurs momentum was green not hittin his open looks, allowing a big gap to chase down

parker and gino both kents

kawhi started going late, whether its due to not enough touches to go around, but he made shots with the bench....

notice they are setting double screens when kawhi is defending cp3...

[Infinite_limit]

IF clips win game 2 I will feel differently and maybe the Spurs have finally worn down from the three straight long playoff runs ...

But I wont over-react. Repeating is one of the hardest things to do in sports. was never gonna be easy. That is why I LOL at the overconfidence around here. I picked Spurs vs. Cavs but I didnt think it would be easy


And Kiwi trying to carry this team ...need to make Ft's though ...

Fairly easy to repeat in the NBA

Since 1987
- 8 teams repeated
- 8 teams didn't (4 times Spurs)


This would be a direct reflection on the Spurs run

[Koolaid_Man]

They are already all lathered up.

You look more like a sexual everyday..your avatar selfie is gay as you look like some hungry boy.....di c k sucking asss lips with the glasses tbh....

[ElNono]

Spurfan needs to stop making excuses. Yeah, you were cold from three, couldn't make free throws, etc., etc., but you got road cooking from the refs, especially in the first half. I'm sure Pop will make adjustments for Game 2 and it will be a tough battle, but you lost this game fair and square.

gg, completely agree. As Pop said, your defense was better than our offense tonight.

[AlexJones]

Spurs shot 34% on 3's for the road this year. 30.3% tonight. Yeah, if you're expecting them to just shake off the rust and go lights out next game you're delusional.

[TDMVPDPOY]

spurs are done man

i dont know why pop always take out the guy with the hot hand gettin the team back into the game, then he chucks on his ty players who was responsible for the blowout...fkn wanker

[ElNono]

also impressed with Blake's maturity on the post-game presser, tbh

Pop has been mediocre by his standards this year tbh. Having ty assistant coaches isn't helping matters.

Isn't there a broad on the staff?

Yop, tho she's mostly there to appease Enrique.

1987 + 16 = 2015

Math checks out.

[Silver&Black]

1987 + 16 = 2015

Math checks out.

I think you've got to factor in things like the Lakers and Bulls 3 peating (Bulls twice). That's 9 years for just two teams...

[LnGrrrR]

Well, the question becomes, do you count each year as a "repeat" or not? Did the Bulls of '93 count as a team that didn't repeat (technically fourpeat), or did they get a pass because they repeated already?

Edit: Did the math, and I see that as long as you repeated, then losing at the end didn't count. Math checks out, actually.

Of course, it's curious that he chose the year 1987... I wonder why...

Oh maybe because

NO TEAM REPEATED FROM 1970 to 1987. (technically 1988, as Lakers didn't repeat until then)

Makes his argument slightly less impressive when you change the cutoff date.

[Silver&Black]

Teams that did repeat:
1. Lakers
2. Pistons
3. Bulls
4. Rockets
5. Bulls 2x
6. Lakers
7. Lakers 2x
8. Heat

Teams that did not repeat:
1. Spurs
2. Spurs 2x
3. Pistons
4. Spurs 3x
5. Heat
6. Spurs 4x
7. Celtics
8. Mavs

He's not counting the last years for the repeating teams btw....and he's still a .

This and I said in all of sports ... just since 1987 if you add the 4 major sports Nfl, mlb and nil how many repeat champs are there? Lakers, Pistons, Bulls, Cowboys, Pats Lakers with with two more teams and Yanks? I think Penguins also got one two (Mario Not Crosby)

[LnGrrrR]

S&B, yeah, caught that. But if he went back to 1970, it would destroy his whole argument.

Yeah Killa, it's a dumb argument. Watch, if Spurs win this year, it becomes, "They didn't threepeat yet, like Jordan's Bulls or Kobe's Lakers".... it's dumb.
