    Shows how absurd the rule is though. What constitutes an away from the ball foul in the last 2 mins and whats a loose ball foul? Too ambiguous.

    Again, CP3 fouls harden after he does not have the ball, should be an away from the ball foul (2 fts+ ball back in last 2 mins) but they dont call it that way. Just a stupid ambiguous rule.

    Great, Clips choke again. Houston will probably lose in 5 against GS. The only thing that we're missing is our top 5 pick; that will be icing on the cake for me before we even hit July in free agency. Things are looking up, fellas.

    Clips clipped.

    Only one team in LA with LA in their name. #16

    Another year. Another 2nd round exit for the Clips.

    This offseason is going to be interesting. Where will Deandre Jordan go?

    I love it, I friggin' love it. Don't like the Rockets (but I love Ariza), but the Warriors play them well while they struggle with the Clipps, and I want the Warriors to win it all. Also, how can you not love seeing this wannabe, flopping, whining, CP3-lead team lose? LMAO at clippers fans, they talk ish all season about us, and their team still doesn't do JACK. LA will always belong to the Lakers, we will be back on top, while they will never have gotten there at all.

    Side note, real smart strategy if you're the Clippers to carry one PG on your team, and have to play the aging, often injured star one you have.

    There's no doubt about it. The only question is how many games. Dubs defense is tight and the MVP is truly unguardable and don't need ref's help to score.

    From Earvin "Magic" Johnson tweet:
    "I thought the Spurs taught the Clippers how to win after a tough 7 game series. I was wrong. The Clippers are still the Clippers."

    Well we got a taste of what it would have looked like to see D12 carry CP3 in the playoffs. Sadly those are the plays CP3 will be remembered by.

    People here, or back on CL, have called Ariza overrated, one of the most overrated Lakers of all time, etc.. Might be true, but the dude steps up his game in the playoffs and in huge moments. His steals and 3's won us a few games that led to a title, to me, you can't overrate that type of contribution (unless you literally overpay someone).
