    Sinobas isn't wrong here.

    Without their best players each game came down to the wire. A gutted Clippers team with Rivers as your go-to guy isn't a fair fight.

    The two games where CP3/Griffin were healthy they beat this Blazer team by 20+

    What is the problem? Defense. Their guards attacked and were relentless.

    The Clips were a good defensive team all year (without Blake) and when you have shooters like JJ, Crawford and River......you are going to be in games. Could they have sustained it over a whole season? No, but a few games.......yes.

    In theory, he may not be wrong. The problem is he puts too much bitching mixed in with saying things saying how we suck we dont belong here, yada, yada, yada that he becomes unbearable and looks downright dumb.

    What do you mean, the 2 games they were healthy for? They were healthy all of game 3 and for at least half of game 4.

    It seems that some are forgetting that our young, inexperienced team just beat a veteran, experienced team. Injuries be damned. Every year there are injuries come playoff time, it is what it is.

    The Clippers just play us hard for some reason. It's just one of those things like how Portland used to beat the Lakers and Spurs when Portland were bottom dwellers, there's just those teams that play well against certain teams for whatever reason. And Portland plays GS pretty well this season given the context of just how good GS is.

    I don't think Portland will shoot as bad in the 2ND round, and I believe that we have a great chance to shock the world with Curry out. Or should we not get too excited if Portland does win because Curry is out? You play to win the games in front of you, Portland did that.

    You guys are so stupid...this is like seeing your favorite boxer get into a fight, but before the fight you find out the opponant has a broken right hand and a broken foot, and that fighter takes your favorite boxer 9 rounds and loses by a small decision. Sure you "won", but that victory doesn't mean shit.

    Bro, we don't even have a complete team. No one (Kingspeed doesn't count) thought we would win more than 34 games. The fact that we are even in the playoffs is a huge plus!

    You are witnessing something amazing this year. We've played well without a full squad.
