Man i love my rockets...

Haven't been this excited for them since 07

Clippers will get upset if that's really a upset

With all the players the clippers have Doc better find a way to use them all like Pop.

 

[bonafide hustla]

& cheating off his man to get steals
& allowing penetration off the dribble
& help defense

But true he is strong and isn't easy to post up at all which is a great aspect when he switches on to 3's and 4's

he can actually lock up on the perimeter when that clown actually tries. Between his wingspan, strength, and solid footwork, he should be a really good defender. literally the jump he needs to be certified as a top guy in this league. i hope he embraces it before he turns ~ 26

I find George Karl very unlikable

 

[sea manup]

if the clippers lose in the first or second round does cp3 get all the blame?

doc rivers is considered a good coach so no one will blame him like they did vinny

You're not alone, I've never liked him as an analyst or a coach.

I presented this question a month ago,and while I don't wish failure on any team that's not the NYK I would honestly be interested in seeing them lose just to see how this plays out.

Phil going back to his first team 8p

 

[Peep Game]

Man Broussard sucks he may as well say "8 Western Conference teams are likely to make the playoffs"

Nope thats Magic Johnson

The only way San Antonio or Miami don't win the championship is if neither team makes the finals.

so...if spurs/heat have a rematch, then both teams will win the chip? magic got me confused.
on a side note...the dunk contest is back!

Magic Johnson on Game 7 last year: "If the Heat can score more points than the San Antonio Spurs tonight I really believe they can and will become champions"

It really depends on how it goes down. If CP puts up phenomenal numbers and they still lose, it will be hard to pin a series loss on him. No matter what though, yes, there will be some people that start the "CP can't win in the playoffs" narrative.

@ Magic...

He's clearly got the best financial advisers on the planet working for him.

 

[datznasty]

Thje best Magic won is the one when he picked like 9 teams in the West, still left OKC out

 

[herbshuttles15]

Magic is like JB Smoove in Pootie Tang

 

[had pants]

Magic...

Next line from him: "I truly believe the team that can win at least 4 games out of 7 in the Finals will become the league's champion"

 

[bhzmafia14]

i remember that

 

[blastercombo]

Magic is an idiot. "I think the team that has the least points at the end of 4qtrs will lose the game".

[captainsneakerhead23]

Here's a few I remember ... "The Spurs won't be able to play Kawhi Leonard much in this series because he can't guard Gasol." - Ervin Johnson

And when Wilbon asked him about LeBron winning his 4th MVP ...

Wilbon: "What does LeBron winning his fourth MVP title at 28, means for the NBA and his legacy?"
Magic: "LeBron doesn't have enough commercials."

Oh? The same way Bosh & Bron to Chicago was a "done deal"?

 

[senorroboto2k5]

And you can never forget Magic's greatest moment of basketball analysis:

"The dunk contest is BACK!"
