Clippers: vs Blazers - 2016 Playoffs - First Round Series Thread

[Kawhitstorm]

Then why the were you so into not playing the Clippers in the 2nd round if you expected this to happen?

Last I checked Chris Paul was injured in the 1st rd last season & still won Gm 7. (Although, I didn't expect the Re /Blake injuries)

[spursistan]

this some unreal as far as the Warriors luck streak.. ...i expect them to get by Portland without Curry who will miraculously heal for Game 1 of WCF..

[StrengthAndHonor]

Isn't that something that requires surgery?

He's done for the playoffs...

Is Prigioni getting out of the way really worse than Rivers screwing everyplay?

Portland favorite to win series if Paul is out?

[mudyez]

Felt weird rooting for Clipps (in order to give them a better chance vs Dubs) anyway. At least I can stop that now.

Go Blazers!

If POR holds on tonight, I don't see how LAC can win the series without CP3 .

[DPG21920]

Portland favorite to win series if Paul is out?

Absolutely. POR is not great, but they have more fire power and if Blake isn't 100%? I don't see a way for LAC to beat POR unless something crazy happens.

[TheGreatYacht]

Unless Splitter suddenly suits up for the Blazers... No way Griffin and the Clips beat them

[K...]

If the Guests get up by 15 pnts is it safe to go to bed or do the Clippers have an secret weapons to unleash?

[DAF86]

No matter what Clipper Nation says, Chris Paul is clearly the most important player in the Clippers. He's the reason the Clippers are even a playoffs team right now. Blake might have already be gone if it wasn't for CP3. This series is finished.

Isn't that something that requires surgery?

It doesn't NECESSARILY require surgery unless it's a displaced fracture, they can just use a splint or cast. There was a famous story about how Karl Malone broke his 5th metacarpal & kept playing b/c he didn't think it was serious:

2002 — Hall of Fame power forward Karl Malone broke the fifth metacarpal on his right hand while playing with the Utah Jazz. He didn’t realize the severity of the injury and kept playing.

Mason Plumbron

[DPG21920]

Plumlee been dropping dimes all year, but this is ridiculous

[Spurs9]

Pretty crazy portland could actually win this series now. They played dubs hard so who knows what could happen.

[K...]

So, do clips rebound for game 5? Or backdoor sweep. Oh yes I love a good backdoor sweep

[Chris]

Griffin ready to check out he's not ready for the team leader role

[NASpurs]

Errors

[D-Wade]

You can't make this up. My Dubs friend called this about four hours ago. SMH.

[mudyez]

Shocker...Ayers made the dunk!

[Chris]

Congrats tlongII

[ViceCity86]

Dubs with continued luck.I expect a Spur or Thunder to go down by WCF.

[LakerHater]

This damn series gonna Giv Stef more rest time!!

[Reck]

Can't believe the clippers let this series get tied.
