Sometimes it seems like Harden isn't even on the floor in any productive way.

Wes Matthews is doing a great job on him. But Harden is dumb as hell :lol:

just dumb decision making by him, Lin, and Parsons.

Harden's defense is just so bad... its even sadder when he tries because he'll still let Matthews go for a layup when he posts up.

I hope the league invalidates all Clipper player contracts. For one summer, if you don't want to play with an alleged racist who allegedly believes in a plantation style ownership structure...you can become an UFA, transferring your contract/rights to the new team.

Can you imagine if Paul and Griffin come on the market?
What about Doc Rivers?

I think voiding contracts would be the sanction that would come closest to forcing Sterling to sell.

I wonder if the NBA ownership agreements have a character clause.

I think another potential source of pressure on Sterling could be the state/city governments or the Staples Center owners. I don't think anything would happen quickly, but it seems they could be in a position to make it very difficult for Sterling to run the Clippers.

They were done before this started. After losing game 1 at home they are more then done. They are doner. Toast. Forget about it.

BRK has to much talent and experience.

hands, series tied 2-2.

If the Nets win in 7 hands will say "see, i knew it all along. Toronto was toast after the first game".

Sterling being a racist is old news. Curious to see how this plays out. The owners have turned a blind to his racism for a long time.

Hypnotizer · Post #1227 » by **Hypnotizer** » Mon Apr 28, 2014 10:38 pm

In my opinion he should be forced to sell his team. There's absolutely no place for racism in NBA.

ATL 10-15 3P @ IND at the half, unbelievable!
I thought Hawks would be better next opponent for Wiz, but no so sure anymore...

The Pacers fan absolutely destroying Paul George heckling is unreal.

"I guess you're ready to go home in the first round! You going to go out in the first round against Atlanta! You're supposed to be an All Star Paul George! Start playin' ball and stop travellin'!"

Never seen worse body language on a team.

Wow Indy getting abused. :lol:

Hawks werent even trying to make the playoffs in the first place and now they have a chance to take out the top seed.

Pacers are PATHETIC. Atlanta doesn't even need a true center to smash them from start to finish in this game.

They are up 30 at this moment... No.1 seed :crazy:

Time to start preparing for the... Hawks? lmao

Al Jefferson & Co.

I don't think i have ever seen a team melt down like this. Usually injuries play a roll when a season turns bad.

Evan Turner must be toxic... Or Danny Granger was the best ever leader of men

Pacers storming back tho... so conflicted... you root for the hot, less talented team over the ice cold, debacle of a talented team right?

We may actually get the benefit of calls against the Hawks.

MikeTheKid · Post #1237 » by **MikeTheKid** » Tue Apr 29, 2014 2:31 am

Roy Hibbert 0pts 0rebs 4 fouls

And he was an All Star LMAO

Curse of Danny Granger

It can't just be the trade.

Do y'all think that there's something to the rumor about one of the Pacers players sleeping with a teammate's wife?

tontoz · Post #1240 » by **tontoz** » Tue Apr 29, 2014 2:41 am

@ Shelvin Mack putting up 20 points and icing the game.

George has been putting up big numbers in this series. Hibbert not so much.
