    That's no fun!! I was enjoying kjironman's embarrassment. Unless of course @crandc was offended by his initial comment, in which case I fully support the deletion thereof. Although her comment which he replied to was hilarious. I wish that had remained.

    I was noticing a trend when watching highlights and rewatching parts of the last game. Whenever the Clippers made a big shot, the Blazers players immediately turned to go to the other end and play offense. Whenever the Blazers made a big shot, the Clippers players tended to slump their shoulders, sometimes argued and gestured at each other, and then go up the court to the other end. Looked like every shot we hit was driving the knife deeper, while every shot they hit didn't faze us. We are no doubt the mentally tougher team. That's why you don't see us making our living off bitching at the refs every single play. Now we might be even or ahead in the talent department. We just have to be ready to face a team with nothing to lose and take them as seriously as a fully healthy Clippers team. Our biggest key has been how hard we've attacked the boards. We just have to keep working hard.

    I was just trying to make a joke about the Clippers being out for blood with a pair of child's safety scissors. :sigh:

    We should double Crawford and Redick off pick and roles like they've been doing to Dame.

    No, I'm not worried about that...both Dame and Stotts have said every game is treated the same...must win...and they way we have been playing in that last two games shows that...the Blazers are hungry and they are liable to eat

    They always say that though. "One game at a time."

    That would be lowest-common-denominator oppression.

    Man I am very embarrassed for sure. Really did not intend to offend anyone. Should have left that alone.

    Dammit, I should have said the refs were going to be out for blood.
