I know this would not have helped in this case but maybe it's time to go back to best of 5 in the first round.

I mean... They both would have gotten injured even if it was a best of 5 series lol

Funny thing was that 24 hours ago the talk was about how fast the Clips could wrap up the Blazers to get to Golden State before Curry gets back. Now its the other way around

Golden State is thanking the Good Lord with this news. This series will last at least another 5-6 days. Then Golden State can stretch the next series against Portland at least another 10 days. Curry literally can just chill until the western conference finals.

It sucks because as a fan watching these games, I feel robbed of what would have been an epic battle during the conference semis.

"I know this would not have helped in this case" ;)

3 wins changes a lot though. Especially urgency. Best of 7 only adds games and chances for some freak accident to happen. And maybe if there wasn't 4 to win, these teams approach game 3 (up 2-0) differently? Just thinking out loud :o


Just to add, K Love's injury came in game 4 up 3-0. I think if they keep losing stars in round 1, it'll be brought up.

There you go, DJ.

And when you lose, tell your coach why luck is important.

DeAndre Jordan wants a bigger role on offense (http://clipperholics.com/2015/06/30/deandre-jordan-wants-a-bigger-role-on-offense/)

Isn't that article from 10 months ago? I obviously hope he has a bit of a bigger role now, though. Throw it into the post and let him attack Plumlee/Kaman.

I agree. Nonetheless, OKC vs SA and GS vs. POR will still be fun to watch.

He said it before the Dallas drama. It was one of the reasons why he wanted to go to Dallas.

Of course, by going back to Clippers, he remained the same role like last season. So now, he should be able to get 50 FTA.

I feel the same. It happened last year too. No Durant, Kyrie, Love, etc.

The Clips need to BLOW THINGS UP, period.

I'd like to see the Clips trade CP3 (and a pick if need be) for Kyrie ... the Cavs could then also trade Love to the Knicks for Melo and a pick and LeBron would have his buddy running mates in CP3 and Melo ... and the Clips would have a dominant trio that could be great for the next 5-10 years in Kyrie/Blake/Deandre

It's Illuminati.


Makes it easier for the NBA's Golden team doesn't lose out while Curry is hurt.
Even though they are still a pretty damn good team with out him...

Isn't this the type of bad luck you expect to find the Clippers

Oh how sad the tides have turned for clippers fans... Watch now the Blazers make it to the WCF, that'd be crazy

Sadly, I agree that the clips should make the cp3/kyrie trade. Blake is a good facilitator, and the clips are always better when cp3 is in a score-first mentality(something kyrie is always in). The age timelines line up better for both teams, too. It could be interesting...

Tbh, since cp3 is considered the better player, they might even be able to get a little bit more than just Kyrie. We can toss in Jamal also, that guy needs to go. The no defense and shoot every chance you get routine occasionally works in the regular season (while killing chemistry) but has no chance in the playoffs
