It'll be a much closer game (obviously) but we got this game still! 2-0! let's go!

Hopefully, our playoff MVP can continue to outplay the league's MVP and Griffin will be unleashed with Westbrook inefficiently being Westbrook.

Not feeling confident about tonights game, but do think the Clippers have way more than a "fighters chance", if only due to Scott Brooks being an inferior coach, even to Mike Dunleavy Sr. But the obliteration by the Clippers during game one, teamed with the emotions will play big factors. Not to mention, the crowd being a sixth man of sorts. Also expect Durant to get a ton of love from the officiating crew, leading to unearned free throws as a result of the award.

But the Clippers still have four great things going for them. Doc Rivers takes multiple shites on Brooks. Chris Paul is Chris Paul and is coming off two spectacular, throwback CP3 games. I expect Blake to have more of an impact, he seemed pretty much going through motions during Game 1. Finally, the Clippers team oriented style of play is superior to the Iso-Chuck scheme ran by OKC.

Yeah,being realistic here I expect a loss,whether it be a blowout or a buzzerbeater,it feels like they're going to do to us what we did to GSW in Game 2,we won't come to play and we'll most likely play that unmotivated style of basketball responsible for all of our losses

Just my opinions on the matter

Refs will be on okc side. Nba darling durant will be babied to the max now.

Hard game. If we keep it close and come out aggressive we might have chance

i view these playoff games on a game to game basis.

we understand fundamentally how you can lose Game 1 at home and get the momentum back in Game 2 before even touching the other teams home floor (see last series).

we need to play tonight like we did Game 1....that same intensity...those same rotations.

oh and Paul, that same 3 ball. 8-)

Anyone know of any viewing parties anywhere in the Valley? Don't feel like going to the BWW with a bunch of "Laker fans"/Wagon Hoppers again.

valley as in sfv? tbh though, i haven't seen a great place for em... yardhouse in northridge, big wangs in noho, Madbulls in sherman oaks, i actually watched a game @ bww in sherman oaks, it's not that bad at all there.

edit: you'll probably see more OKC fans everywhere. BWW @ sherman oaks had a lot of okc fans when they were playing mem.

Yeah, the Porn Capital of the World.

I was at the BWW @ the Galleria for Game 3 of the first round, too many Laker fans cheering for the W's, or dudes that didn't know who Danny Granger was, but claimed to be Clipper fans.

Was thinking of going to the SpringBok down on Balboa, but not sure if they'll pass up a Dodgers game since it is a predominantly baseball location from what I recall before moving out of here. Or this little Mexican joint that has been showing the Clipper games since I was in my early teens down on Lankershim.

But meh, think I'll just end up at Applebees or one of the many bowling allies that have games on in the background.

Clippers' Ralph Lawler said he's coming back next season. "I positively don’t want to get thrown out with the dishwater, so to speak."
