This is what has me scared about Vinny the coach, Crawford is clearly our best 1 on 1 scorer and he leaves bledsoe in and has chris paul take the last shot when he was off tonight? I feel like crawford would have ended the game if he was in thats what we brought him here for.

I think Vinny was scare that Crawford would go one on one and might turn the ball over. I actually agree with Vinny on this and if they had a timeout, he would have switched Bledsoe for Crawford.

It doesn't matter if CP3 is 0 - 23, if there is a last second shot to be taken, he will have the ball in his hand. If he feels that someone else has a better shot, he will pass it off. When Billups comes back in a few weeks, it might be him. So I am okay with him taking the shot. As for why Crawford was on the bench? Maybe our next coach can answer that!

Who can guard jamal....no one... so if i was vdn i let jamal do what he does....If they double someone is open, but who dont let your best scorer not get a chance to score

Vinny has to have the balls to Paul no I heard Paul waved off the timeout Vinny was about to call. Vinny should of stepped in and told Paul you are cold lets come together and get you better spacing with Crawford in. Hell Vinny could of put shooters on both sides with Green and Crawford and bigs for the putback.

^^^if VDN would of took the time out....he would gained alot of respect....Yea CP3 is CP3 but you are the coach, and he should of took that timeout. You brought Jamal into score, he is the best 1 on 1 player and is the clippers best clutch player how you dont have in the game is crazy...

In my opinion...

There wasn't anything wrong with vdn not calling the timeout as we had one of the best closers in the game with the ball.

However, vdn SHOULD have called the timeout, put in jcross to at least give him an option.
