#focus#mustwin#playoffs#drama? : 2013 NBA playoffs

to me what makes it funny is the lakers seemed like they shouldve been a compelling storyline but really they were just super dull, and everyone kept on like they were interesting anyway

Yeah #mambatweets lovely enough to draw inspiration from / this one in particular captures the spirit of the playoffs imo.

yeah totally agree lagoon. seriously the only intriguing sub-plot of the Lakers season was Kobe in Nash mode for like 7 games or whatever. Made everyone think hmm "what if" for a minute.

you've just gotta let these guys take open threes

lol matt and jordan will be sniping at each other about this in 2019

clips lineup on the floor right now is kind of scary offensively

thabo scraping into the >250 criteria

I mean having butler and billups' shooting, griffin and jordan's power and chris paul all at the same time

no one even remembers how it all started *shakes head*

did cp3 just flop while being helped up by his own team

thabo has now shot well from three in his career for a grant total of four months. but yeah, teams will def have to be guarding him in the playoffs

fine him

link broken

;_; zbo playing injured.

looks like he's moving okay.

it's always weird to me how Marc seems like such a composed, leader-like character while his brother is such a whiny preening mess

god the clippers are disguting

Chris Webber Turn Offs: double fouls.

How is this game tied, Memphis has looked like trash most of the game.

is ed davis just out of the rotation?

damn

cp3 doin cp3 things

<3

Kev, was that "fine him" link supposed to be that moment where Tony Allen grabbed the ref?

I almost hate cp3 as much as D Fish at this point. reallllllly cant stand to watch him or his team.

lol that matt went back to november to pull up a sarge post, typical

sorry went to her but it was a griffin flop, dunno why it didn't show up

crazy how del negro is still going 10-deep for the playoffs.

would really like to see this Clips team with a better coach -- great pieces, so-so cohesion

their offense needs to be better than 'give it to chris paul'

Was wondering if people were still down on Del Negro. Got some luv for the former wolfpack alum.

popovich talked a lot about how much he likes paul and griffin after the all-star game...

but yeah right now it just feels like their strategy is having a guy who can create shots in the paint, a guy who can create jumpers/threes, and a guy who can create shots anywhere and just get one of them the ball. And they actually do have a potentially very good passing team and they're a reasonably smart team, so I feel like someone else could do so much more with them.

Swear announcers almost have a slapstick routine built around "It's almost like the Clippers have two coaches: Chris Paul and Chauncey Billups." Seems like CP3 + a great coach would be deadly.

Also, coming off Drew sitting Horford / Hollins sitting ZBo for the last four minutes last night ... would love to know if there's some obscure stat about sitting players in foul trouble vs. letting them play through. Have always had a feeling that coaches over-coach those situations and end up sitting their better players too much.

yeah, I heard that line once or twice.

At one point watching last night I had the thought "this is the greatest team in the history of pickup basketball."

nah that's houston

Paul George most improved

jesus avery bradley had the first pass of the game deflected

protip: dont pass to knicks

hey guys mike brown! coaching the cavs! lebron is coming back right? right???

i hope his contract is in comic sans

feel bad for mike dunlap :(

I would feel bad for Dunlap if management had made him give all those minutes to Mullens (which they may have)

whoa Jr from deep

JR is just nuts this year where did he come from

i've always believed

JR's offense this season isn't much different from his better seasons in Denver, it's the defense that's better. Also a little less insane.

JR's defense came and went tbh. he just got more minutes this year

hey there it is "you just cannot leave..."
