Harden with big errors late in the game. 2 missed fts and a costly turnover.

Please not at the buzzer.

It’s a win but not much to be proud of.

seems kind of wrong that the Clippers could finish lower in the seeding than GSW even though they won the head to head season series.

Worst case scenario, the Clippers have to play Memphis in the play in- hopefully they would win that game and if they lost that, you'd hope they could beat Dallas or Sacramento at home- but in 1 game scenarios, you never know.

In terms of this game- man I thought I was having a heart attack at the end of the game- I somehow knew when Kawhi missed that 3 and Lavine came down and made his that the game would come down to the wire.

Sabonis gets away with murder on Zu. And I HATE Derozan floppin a$$.

Also, Carter and Johnson are master flop artist too that get away with reaching, grabbing and hacking and haven't earned that reputation.

So bascially Clippers have 3 chances to get into the playoffs.

First by beating the Warriors which would be super hard because Silver wants that Lakers vs Warriors match up(if Warriors win).

Second by beating the Grizs at home

Third by beating the winner of Kings/Mavs at home


If we can not win any of the 3 games above, we do not deserve to be in the playoffs...

I am confident we will advance in the end but just not sure about the warriors game. We are 3-0 vs them this season. Away from home, potentially playing 5 vs 8, it's gonna be tough.

We will see.

A win is a win. I have no ideal why it should come to a Harden nervous dribbling affair in the closing minutes of a tight game with Zu and Kawhi on the team. Lue had Zu clearing out of the paint so Harden could do his thing when the smarter play was dumping into Zu and letting him go to work in the paint. Its damn near an automatic bucket these days. But it was a must win and we got it. The finale tomorrow. Its definitely winnable.

Laker wise, I rather face them in the 2nd round because the Adam Silver, the league, and the networks will not want them out in the first round.

And don’t forget if anyone even hard looks in Austin Reeves direction it’s an automatic flagrant!
