2017 NBA Playoffs Thread - CLE @ BOS Game 5 on TNT

[a-friend]

I know Joe got all the Glory but Ingles was the key to that game.

He sparked the revolution of belief when Gobert went down.

He had JJ looking for his bag like, "I know I brought it"

I remember threading my brow in the middle back in the day but dudes take it to the max these days.

Joints be curving and ish like the Females.

Gordon Hayward needs to not do that.

 

[whiplashtw03]

Jazz are better coached and have more depth than the Clippers, and should win the series even without Gobert.

 

[art vandelay]

Rudy hyperextension and a bone bruise, but nothing structural

Can he come back this series?

 

[P C H]

Can he come back this series?

No word on that. I would assume he's for sure not playing game 2 though.

 

[whiplashtw03]

If I were the Jazz, I rest Gobert the entire series and save him for the Warriors because they won't need him against the always underachieving Clips.

Gobert is the X-factor against the Warriors should they meet in the 2nd round.

You know the unibrow hairs that grow in the middle?

I can see threading or shaving those so they don't connect but dudes be out here these days with eyebrows like this.....

 

[MVP]

Never had those problems. Brows and lashes always been luxurious.

Fun Fact - Joe Johnson has 8 buzzer beaters in the regular season and playoffs over the last 10 years, the most by any current player in the NBA. Acquisitions such as this one is just another reason why the Jazz will advance. Clippers did nothing in the offseason to make their team better and are virtually the exact same product they gave to their fans last year.

Why does Kyrie write Whiplash on his shoes every game? He just love the movie or what?

Well if my man whiplash says it then This confirms that the Clips will win this series and vastly improved their team this past offseason lol

 

[freddy fig]

JJ cold Blooded.seen dat 3 ball was still wet vs the Pelicans aint his first big shot..pg13 should take notes

 

[tyevvyotcu]

Too late? He hit the 3 to bring them within one with 3 minutes left.


All I know is the 5'11 PG showed up when in the clutch and the 6'9 skywalker ain't.

he literally took over the entire second half
dudes just gonna find a way to blame him so they can continue with their narratives

You didnt mention Raymond Felton and Marreese "Mo Buckets" Speights. 

Elite bench pick-ups. Elite, Bruh.

I think what really hurt the Clippers was no Austin Rivers. I think he would have dropped 10 on they heads in the fourth alone.

I know you love your Clips but here's my issue with the team and its fan base:

1) Clipper fans at Staples lack passion, big time. They're boring, they're never loud, and the Clippers truly don't have a home court advantage. Maybe that's what happens when you don't have a solid history of playoff success. Your fans don't know when to get loud and when to rally your team as the "6th man."

2) The organization has fallen short in the playoffs the last couple of years due to a lack of depth. What do they do to resolve it? Sign a 50-year old Paul Pierce. Wes Johnson gives you nothing. Speights is under utilized, MBah a Boute is a big time bust and I don't know why he's still starting, and either Redick or Crawford should have been dealt a long time ago for a player to replace MBah a Boute at the starting SF spot. And Felton? Lol, as long as CP3 is there, Ray ain't gonna see no more than 5 minutes a night in the postseason.

3) Doc Rivers should not be a GM and should stick to coaching, but what does Balmer know about basketball operations?

Honestly, I feel bad for Clippers fans because they will NEVER taste a championship. Not in this lifetime.

Felton and Mo Buckets were pickups for the regular season. As long as DeAndre and CP3 are playing big minutes, Doc ain't using those "elite pickups" in the playoffs. 

Austin Rivers is their only legitimate bench player who can produce and help the team. The problem is this:  Crawford and Redick, two proven veterans, are going to limit Austin's minutes. That's why I said above that either Redick or Crawford should have been dealt a long time ago in order to allow Austin to flourish.

Rare of me to say this, but I agree with Whip. Dippers never gonna win a championship.

I mean sure, you're probably right but do you know how many teams win a championship? The odds are against most teams to win a ring

that's how the NBA works

Great trivia question: How many teams in the NBA are ringless?
