Hey ruff, the chick you asked about is Rachel McAdams.

Griffin postgame interview shows he's clueless.

We scored the ball pretty well, just need to get more stops.

Uh, no you played Spurs pace all game where ya been!?!

Dude needs to spend a bit more time in the film room to help avert another dissection.

Blake in the post-game: "We scored the ball... decently. But we just can't give them as many open looks as we did tonight."

The problem, Blake, is that if you try and get out on those open shots, Tony Parker is going to cut you to pieces. Pick your poison. This team just has too many weapons.

Jinx!

Yeah and his body language said tired, injured, defeated, in addition to the aforementioned lack of awareness of what just went down.

Pop you can have Neal at Point just don't let him be the one to dribble up the court!

unsung heroes of Game 1 for me:

Kawhi: 16 pts, 3-3 from 3, 6 boards, 3 steals, 1 blk

Diaw: (who was an integral part of the run in the 3rd quarter that put the Spurs up 20+) Not sure why he didn't play any of the 4th quarter: 7 pts, 12 boards, 5 assists, 3 steals

* Also I blame this tweet for why Splitter air balled his 2 FTs...

Just watched Tiago Splitter airball a free throw after shootaround. Series back on.

Odd to because even last year when his form was bad, I never remember him airballing any FTs. Of course, he didn't really bend his knees much on those 2 FTs either.

Diaw didn't play in the 4th cause the Clippers went small and we know Pop loves to match the opponent although I think Diaw is basically a small-ball 4.

Agreed. I also gotta go with Danny Green. Dude played HUGE tonight. Him and Kawhi were awesome...

Green played a lot on Paul. Kawhi got some time on him in the 4th. Chris guarded Tony a lot in the first half. Some other players guarded him in the second, I honestly can't remember off the top of my head.
