Wow, man, come on, appreciate what you have.

Let's see... blew a 3-1 lead, blew a 19-point lead, blew a closeout game at home, and we've still never been past the second round of the playoffs. It's real easy for a Celtics fan with 17 rings to come in here and tell us to "appreciate what we have," but we've got nothing - bupkis.

Blake is the only one in this whole organization from the front office on down who deserves another chance. The rest of these losers, I've seen enough.


Wow dude. With all due respect, calling CP3 a fraud is a complete joke and embarrassing. Doc is one thing, its actually quite easy to make that argument given his coaching style and the vomit he came up with tonight.

CP3 is the most cerebral PG in the league and an incredible player/leader. Calling him a pussy is like calling Payton or Iverson a pussy. Why do you dislike his play?

All those "brains" and he can't think of a way to get past the second round of the playoffs. How many more chokejobs do we need to sit through before the excuses go away and we can all call it like it is? Melo, Dwight, and even LeBron get KILLED for being "playoff chokers" and they all have gone further than CP3.


Isn't there a difference between fraud and playoff choker?

Not everyone is Jordan, man. Kobe is a playoff choker too, his team just made up for it.

Lebron is a huge playoff choker, but not a fraud. idk. to each his own I guess

yeah. Fair enough with that point. Wasn't thinking about it that way honestly but you're right. Kind of a dumb statement now that i think about it, haha.

remember when everyone was hoping that the clippers would get about a weeks rest before the next series? looks like they might get months of rest.

Yo, on the real though, **** Sterling. You might have a different coach without all the bs that happened. Allowed Doc to seamlessly seize power essentially.

I should have seen this coming. People like Doc don't change. SMH.

Kinda hard to plame Chris Paul for the loss, 31, 11, 7 are more than winnning numbers, the problem is outside of him and Blake the rest of the team didn't do enough. Jamal is our weak link for sure.

With all due respect to the Rockets, we just checked out mentally when it looked like the series was in the bag. First it happened in Game 5, then tonight in the 4th.
But let's look at the bright side: we played our best against the Spurs with our backs against the wall, and we are used to 7 game series. If we get past Houston after such a nasty loss, we'll be ready for anything in the finals. Still believe in this team!

Nope. I just don't accept mediocrity and loserdom. That's what we saw all season, and after a fluky hot streak in the Spurs series and Games 1-4 of this series, that's what we're seeing now.

Hey, man, everyone shows their passion differently, sometimes it can be annoying but I understand. I just don't think Paul is TRASH even if you want to make the choker/over rated argument.

Empty stats. How about CP3 DEMANDS the ball like an actual superstar whose legacy is on the line instead of just standing there and letting Jamal freeze him out.

Yeah, and that's a fine attitude to have, probably even healthy, but I can't imagine your avy endears you to people much around here. You'd be surprised how much that effects peoples opinions.

A tremendous amount of credit needs to be given to the Rockets for weathering the 19-point deficit and coming out victorious on the road -- I guess our guys thought the other team would just quit...lesson learned (I hope).

All of this pain goes away if we win Game-7.

Everybody in Clipperdom was all smiles and Hi-5's when we were up 3-1; don't become emotionally unhinged now that things have gotten tight. If we sit around playing the blame-game for the next 3 days then our guys might-as-well not even show-up in Houston.

Everybody needs to cry it out tonight, get over it tomorrow, and get ready to win another Game-7 on Sunday

Wow. This presser with Blake. Uh. Yeah not sure what to say. Clearly an extremely passionate guy who deserves to win for the franchise that drafted him. You should be ashamed Doc Rivers. You don't deserve that nickname anymore. The real Doc would never shame the sport like this.

That was **** a heartbreaking presser.

I agree, but you need to prepare to lose, man. I imagine everyone is screaming at Doc in that lockerroom, and additionally, they are probably depressed.

One thing to lose like this, another to have it be your coach's fault. These are people's lives, money and legacies he just toyed with.

But go Clippers. I picked you guys in seven again so I guess its time to pull off some ****. Ill be watching and rooting hard for you guys

Huh? 2/5 finals isn't choking? Losing to the Cs for years isn't choking? Losing in the finals this year isn't choking?

Insane player, just one of the greatest ever and his career isn't even over, but this isn't Magic, Bird or I guess Jordan type of clutch play.
Lebron is amazing though, makes the whole team better. **** him though.
