I've gotten burnt over the years by doing that. And when he's playing like this...

They'll be absolutely fine. When you have a player at the level Stephen Curry is right now, the rest falls into place.


Playing the Clippers right now makes any team look good



Just wait and be patient. My team loves to blow leads. :banghead:


I bow to your judgment. Klay dribbling off his foot just about personifies that last few minutes.

Why is Clippers playing this early ?

It was Hardens idea so evening time he can go strip clubbing?

The last couple years. No one expects any team to be dominant for over a decade, but at the same time, it can be hard to watch the decline. Let me flip back to the Georgia / Alabama game. :(

Lakers have first priority. This is the last season of the Clippers playing in the afternoon.

Clippers just have to play with urgency and effort and they can win games.


Mind boggling why they are so casual.

Is that what happened? Bisme statue gets another foot taller outside RealGM center.


I can't take credit for banishing cam24thomas lol. I mean I certainly moderated the crap out of that poster but they were banned for trolling and arguing with a mod on another board.
