Round 2 Game 3: Clippers (1) VS Thunder (1)

[ReturnofMVP3]

Hope to see you guys in the finals. I really want CP3 finally make it.

Hey Clips, good game, looks like this is the only good 2nd round series, but man stressful to watch for all fans involved. See you Sunday!

I was expecting at least 2-3 games like this during our series. Great job by you guys tonight. Ibaka was a total beast and KD/WB sealed it when the game was on the line. Even old man Caron joined the fun.

Would be nice for OKC to relax a bit and be ok with going 2-2 back home, just so us fans get some more fun games to watch.

I hate how we kept crawford late in the 4th. He let Westbrook shoot an uncontested 3. We didn't even need JC since CP and BG were scoring well. Very entertaining game though.

Jj was brutal he had to play Jamal who went cold late.

he ha a point.
rotations were bad.

BOX OUT BOX OUT BOX OUt. not sure how much i been screeming this game 2 and 3.
rebound.
dont over use craw. he is instant offense he cant stay whole game. PENETRATE KICK OUT.

switching on rotations only works if its crisp.

kd/wb will do what they do.
STOP OTHERS> ibaka and other crap they have cant go off

I guess I believe that it doesn't matter if JJ/Dudley/Granger/DC can't shoot, I'd rather have committed defenders to give us the best possible chance to get stops at crucial times and play the two man game of CP and BG at the other end.

Probably a stupid idea but I'd love to see DJ, Blake and Barnes all crash the offensive boards on every shot while our guards run back to defend.

can't watch any post game stuff. too pissed.



i mean even if Crawford closed out and made him drive it would be a one possession game.
i mean...we're talking the BARE minimums though....far cry from close out and keep him out the paint.

We need to step out on Ibaka. So many of his shots were completely wide open. No one would rotate over him. What ever happened to the fundamentals of closing out a shooter? There's no way Ibaka will beat these guys off the dribble. SO just close out on him and make him pass. The only way the Thunder beat us is if 4 or more guys score double-digits including Durant and Westbrook. Both those guys can combine for 60, but we have to worry about the other guys. There's no way Ibaka should be getting 20 points.

Hey guys, I had a long drive to Vegas. I was stuck in a lot of traffic, so I didn't get to see any of the game live. Just some of the replay. I got updates and heard that we lost it. I have yet to get a playoff win. I heard that we had this one and then lost it. Now tomorrow's game is a must win. Hopefully I'll be able to watch the next game since it will be early Mothers Day.

In the actual flow of the possession, a better close out wouldn't have forced a drive, just a contested shot, Jamal was just very late, Westbrook saw that there was 5 on the clock and seemed already determined to shoot. I'm not worried that he couldn't run him off the line, but that there was no contest at all, he was like 5 feet back, not sure what he was expecting to happen with 5 on the clock.
