German comedian, huh? I don't even...

I think the Clippers should come out in black face and wear white gloves. Especially JJ Redick.

If JJ Redick came out with his face painted black id sh*t all over myself in laughter. That would be epic.

yeah that's why I paid attention. Was an interesting fella, he was early 20's and he was talking about growing up and being made to feel ashamed about something his country done before he was born.
His act forms around that.

Marv Albert is incredible at calling games. He gets me excited when I could give two **** about the game.

Rockets are so disappointing to me. Arguable the best SG, and the best C in the league (yeah, I know Noah is up there, but when Howard wants to impose his will hes by far the best center in the league), along with Parsons.

They should not be in this situation of losing to Portland.

Harden's lack of defense put them in a bit of a fickle, a lot. Great player, but it's obvious that he save his energy for offense, and I think that take away from their ceiling as a team

I would like for Portland to win this series. They deserve a bit of luck considering how their luck has gone with injuries to star players in the past.

Mo Williams trying to act all big and bad after the horn sounded.

Houston needs a better coach. They have as much talent as anyone but their team is so flawed.

Harden is as talented as any 2-guard in the league, but way too often goes into iso/hero ball mode on offense and stand around and ball watch mode on defense

this pacer game is like the last game of the night at the YMCA everyone is giving half effort and ready to go home

Lol Mark Jackson trying to get Clipper fans to boycott game 5. I didn't see him trying to get Warrior fans to boycott game 4 almost 24 hours after it happened. What a joke.

Yeah, pretty convenient how they need to boycott now that the Warriors are going into a critical game 5 on the road but they didn't need to boycott when the Warriors are at home, even though Jackson claims he wants all fans to boycott, not just LAC fans.

That being said, the fans boycotting would probably be the strongest and most realistic thing that could be done besides the players just refusing to play, which I don't believe will happen nor should happen.

What would be even funnier is if Clipper fans boycotted and Warrior fans bought up all the tickets. That would be hilarious.

the advertisers are pulling support left and right for the clippers. THAT is the strongest protest possible. nothing moves the needle like losing advertising dollars.

Kareem on Sterling

So, if we’re all going to be outraged, let’s be outraged that we weren’t more outraged when his racism was first evident. Let’s be outraged that private conversations between people in an intimate relationship are recorded and publicly played. Let’s be outraged that whoever did the betraying will probably get a book deal, a sitcom, trade recipes with Hoda and Kathie Lee, and soon appear on Celebrity Apprentice and Dancing with the Stars.

The big question is “What should be done next?” I hope Sterling loses his franchise. I hope whoever made this illegal tape is sent to prison. I hope the Clippers continue to be unconditionally supported by their fans. I hope the Clippers realize that the ramblings of an 80-year-old man jealous of his young girlfriend don’t define who they are as individual players or as a team. They aren’t playing for Sterling—they’re playing for themselves, for the fans, for showing the world that neither basketball, nor our American ideals, are defined by a few pathetic men or women.

well said Kareem.

It feels like we were punished by winning 5 more games than the hawks, I mean they are shredding the pacers in this series that could be us, also if both hawks and wiz advance that will piss me off, espicially if wizards win they don't deserve to go to ecf, the bobcats and raptors are just as good NBA needs to reconsider their playoff seeding

I have heard some conspiracy theories that magic is the one that got sterlings girlfriend to leak the video in hopes of forcing the NBA to push him out and sell the team to him. if true Magic should be on house of cards

Sterling is a filthy boil on the ass of life that badly needs to be lanced, but there's a reason he's so filthy rich. He bought that team for $12Mln and will sell it for $700Mln. Magic Johnson will own the Clippers by July.
