I was wondering if we would have a rematch from last years playoff series. We all know it went 7 games and this season we're not getting much credit for what we accomplished. Who cares, our team has always been the underdog and if most people want to think that way so be it. Memphis is a tough team, but they can be beat. (We just beat them not too long ago) We also have the best player on the court, Chris Paul.

The issues I see the Grizzlies giving us are their defense and rebounding. However Memphis does struggle to score. If we can play the game the way we want, fast, we should get positive results. In order to play fast we need to defend and rebound the ball. If we can do that the series is ours. I'm anticipating a tough game tonight. I'm sure Memphis wants revenge from last year and this season. I hope the guys are ready for playoff basketball!

27 hrs til tip. Excited!!

This is going to be a very,very fun series.

SO PISSED I'LL BE WORKING DURING THIS.

Really hope we make a statement in Game 1, and the series. Let's go Clippers!!!

we have the home court.
people wrote us off when Memphis beat us at home a few weeks ago.
instead of acknowledging our win in Memphis last Saturday, pundits pretend it didnt happen.

we're in a no win situation here.
we have to "prove" ourselves even though we beat them last year.
if we lose, we're what everybody expected and our development plateaued somewhere.
if we win, everybody will suddenly remember that we did beat them last year and nobody will give 2 craps about how different their team was with the trade.


it literally is us against the world.
a world that is still whining and moaning over 2012 flopping.
a world that hates how we complain to refs and pile up techs (so do I here).
a world that thinks we're soft and can be punked.
a world that thinks we only fast break even though we're 19th in pace and they wont pin the same stigma to the Nuggets.


we're a team and a franchise on a mission.
not just some random mix of good players like those dudes on the other side.
rally around each other...and lets get'er done.
why? because we're better than them

This one can't start soon enough.

Both teams with a case of nerves on their opening possessions.

just rewatched that game one thing from last year.
WE ROCKED!

Nice hustle Caron! 6-0 start for the Clips.

I like the start, we've been scrappy
