Following the sudden shocking losses of Paul and Griffin, and the ensuing Game 4 for the Blazers to tie, I predicted the Clippers must lose Game 5 to allow Portland to take the lead 3-2. My prediction was true.
Now is the time to strike.
All the Clippers needed was indisputable proof that they were going to be eliminated. Being down 3-2 was the key. With that now firmly in the back of their minds, I see them going out in blazing saddles to prevent getting bounced out. There's a lot at stake. Paul, Griffin and/or Jordan could be traded. The Clippers could be forced to a painful rebuild. There is a growing theory that the Clippers may never make the playoffs again after being eliminated because of the curse. And with the Warriors awaiting the winner of the first round, if the Clippers proclaim themselves the winners, they are destined for an automatic 2nd round exit. Their championship hopes are over.
Then fight for something else.
Fight for your friends, the people you like being around.
Fight for your family, the father you respect and the son you love.
Fight for your fans, give the NBA a Clippers-Warriors dream rematch, even if it's against the Resident Evil Clippers.
Fight to save Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan from being taken away by the rest of the league who is ever so eager to see the Clippers out of the playoffs once and for all.
The Clippers are in no danger of being contracted. But they gotta fight as if an elimination in the playoffs gives the NBA their right to extradite the franchise from the league altogether.
