Did you see that?

We are wrong that the Warriors will sweep the Clippers, series is now tied 1-1.
Lou Williams such an undervalued player was the best player for his  team tonight, this team just give a  statement that they can win even against the warriors.

Actually, this is the greatest comeback in NBA playoffs history. This is how they got the lead back. First it was their teamwork to put their back in the game, JaMychal Green's effort in battling for the board and getting the lose ball and hustling towards an open man. Next, Patrick's defense and how he destroyed KD's game, he also did this during the first one. Last, Lou's efforts on everything. I can't believe that a sixth man is carrying their team. He might be the Sixth Man of The Year.
Agree,if you dissect those players contribution on the game you can actually say that they have done it pretty good.I didnt even expect for them to tied out with Warriors on 2nd game.
Lets see on how they would able to sustain the pace.

Freaking Beverley garbage playing worked.
Even though he gained 6 fouls at 4th quarter still he made a lot of mess by making Durant uncomfortable and also gaining 6 fouls.
Looks like that is the real purpose of him out there. Durant cannit even move much while Beverley is defending him and also got offensive fouls.

While that is happening Lou Williams became a monster. Oh that man is really worth all that expensive salary cap. Grin

Warrior did get beat last night by a score of 135 - 131.
Watched the first half and as soon cousins went down that was bad for the home side cause he will be undergoing an mri on his quad. Of course he didnt return to the game and this is when the game turned when a warrior player went down clippers knew they could take this game.
And durant fouling out sealed the game for them.

Actually without Cousins they still made a 30 point lead.
They just cannot preserve that high energy from the 2nd quarter and little by little Clippers is taking that lead out.

Haven't seen the game though. So it looks like Clippers pull some 'upset' in game 2 as most of the fans here says that GSW will have a sweep. I agree that Lou Williams is very underrated. I saw his performance in game 1 and he was doing good. So another interesting series to watch and let us see if GSW will response in game 3.
I want this series to last longer, a game 7 would be nice to witness.
We all are not expecting this, but this young team are just hungry enough and they prove to everybody what they can do.

23-41 clippers was the 4th quarter score, in just one quarter alone they stop the GSW way to 2-0.

Well that was a surprise. And that's after being down 31 points i think plus homecourt advantage to gsw lol.  The first round is proving to be quite interesting than i expected to be honest. But i don't think it'll go far. The next 4 games can be swept by the warriors you know.

It could be swept by the warriors, yet reverse could also happen. The warriors can also be swept by the clippers if they play like what they did today. He ball is round and basketball is a game of momentum in which any given minute will change.

Just watched the hilights of Nets vs 6'ers. It was really close in the first 2 quarters, and eventhough sixers will have a run, nets will simply close it out. However, in the 3rd quarter, sixers made a good run and nets doesn't have any answer for that as they win 145-123.

I wonder though about Joel, it looks like he is injured or something is bothering his foot. It will be a factor as the series will probably go on 5-6 games, imho.

Surely Detroit Pistons won't be winning this round much more with Blake Griffin out of the first round due to a sore left knee. Milwaukee Bucks would surely destroy this team even with a complete and healthy team much more without their star player in the lineup. With the Bucks showing how good they are in the first game compared to the Pistons you know they wouldn't stand a chance against them. Milwaukee will be advancing in the 2nd round early as most likely they will sweep if not win the round by game number 5.
Chances of being wipe out because Blake is not there to give them a good fight, Bucks is too aggressive looking with how they performing and
too eager to win, Giannis and the rest are fully overcharge coming to this first round, there's no question for them to have this advantage and
a possibilities to also be in the finals, too early but just an speculative opinion.

Casual basketball fan hehehe. How strong is the Raptors during the playoffs? They were leading by 16 points versus Orlando in game 1 and managed to lose the game in spite of the lead.

Lol! Raptors hasnt changed a bit. No wonder why they were called the "Barneys" in the post season.

It's a bad timing, if Griffin, they certainly have a chance because he is the main man of the team. (although others might not agree)

Meanwhile, I'm watching the game 2 of the Sixers vs Nets now, it was a close first half but Sixers had a good run at the start of the 3rd and this gives them a double digit win, hopefully they can split this series today.

You got point on your observation but 1st game doesnt guarantee some sweep but somehow they are starting the pace with their own side. Or Curry did just reserve these plays for Playoffs?  Cheesy
With due respect to the LA Clippers, i think they are at the wrong end of the rope in this first round of the playoffs. The Warriors are so motivated right now to prove that they can do other few teams achieve, the 3 peat. I bet that the Clippers will be sweep on this round though it is not over yet but basing on the first game, Clippers is not yet on the same level with the Warriors yet. KD and Steph exploded, might be Klay on the second game. That's tough for the Clippers.
It's too hard  for them to handle the Warriors, since even Green and the rest of the team are joining the parade, Harrell and Williams can't match the superteam of this league, with Curry's and KD's playoffs activated performance it's hard for anybody to stop the defending champs, can be swapped
or maybe 3-1 if they will entertained the clippers fans.
Although Clippers are not the strongest team to match the warriors, I guess that they can give a good fight to them. Clippers is one of the team a team with all star don't want to face in round 1. Their number 1 scorer? A sixth man, their center, a 6'8 stretch. PG starter? A rookie.

I do feel sad for Paul George on having a bad night during the game between Rockets and Oklahoma, for those people that don't know about PG not having a great night he has a minor injury. It's on his shoulder. But he said that, he only needs rhythm and everything will work out. Unfortunately, it didn't.
Man, he said that 'I couldn't even lift my shoulder'.  Cry  Undecided

LA Clippers will be so frustrated with their series with GSW. Curry has step up his game specially his 3. And imagine if KD and Klay will also erupt at the same time will be very difficult for LA Clippers to at least win one game. If will be a good match if that is LA Lakers, but unfortunately, we won't see it happening this season though.

Every team that will face the GSW will get frustrated because they are so good.
Just remember what they did to the Cavaliers last NBA finals, if they can sweep Lebron, how much more this Clippers team.

GSW will crash any team that is going to play against them.
During regular season all the teams strive to win GSW but when the times for play offs come they struggle to win them. They cannot endure the series and the quality in GSW team is shown.

PG needs to find ways to work with his injury, without him helping the squad things is really different, OKC still have chance as the series just begun,
they have to adjust and work it out as a squad if they wanted to extend this series, whoever win this match up  is well deserve to advance to the next
round.

I have watched enough NBA to know that the first game is never the decisive one on a series and remembering last year even warriors who can be argued as the best team ever assembled almost lost to rockets, it was game 7 for both teams and I remember texting my friend Rockets are finally ending the warriors dynasty on second quarter but afterwards they managed to miss 27 games in a row.

So, not only that 1st games are not showing which team is better but even a game 7 second quarter beat down could change so much drastically, you gotta really wait until the last buzzer of the last game to know which team will win. OKC could really rally back if PG returns with a healthy shoulder but it looks like without him playing at 100% OKC will have a big big trouble for sure, I am just happy that Blazers actually won a playoff game, they really deserve it after years of hard work.
