    Obvious game plan by clippers. They have trapped curry the same way for years. Our role players have to step up

    Sometimes you just get taken to the woodshed by a better team. Anyone with misconceptions about who the better team was in this series is quickly being answered. Just too many missed shots and turnovers to beat a better team.

    I just don't know how we can't coach out of the trap/double team. It's Lillards kryptonite for ever.

    Nope. Hopefully, they can get some momentum into the 4th and game 2.

    This could be the first year that all the Western Conference 1st round series end in a sweep.

    Let's see a little something here in the fourth. Give them something to think about for game two.

    I wish Roy could work with Crabbe in the summer. I feel like Crabbe could easily develop some on ball moves.

    A 15 point deficit isn't too bad when you divide it by swish3
