Qs Quote:
The Clippers continue their exceptional defense, while the offense has gotten it going. Memphis got Parsons back and will be without Tony Allen. I still see Memphis challenging for the 5th slot in the West, but Fizdale needs to figure out how to get Gasol and Z-Bo together on the court, as much as possible.


#1 vs #17 on Q's Power Rankings (http://mikesmind.sportsblog.com/posts/29319721/nba-power-rankings--week-4--clippers--cavaliers-keep-rolling.html)

Q's Prediction:
Clippers Win 103-93
Q's Prediction Record: 16-5 (10-1)

Almost time

[qrich]

Parsons makes a huge difference for Memphis, compared to last game.

[qrich]

Memphis is up 14-12 with 5:53 to go....have to say, the Grizzlies look on the road to climbing into a top 5 spot. Offense is more fluid out there, Fizdale should keep Parsons-Ennis as the wing duo even when Allen is back. Both are decent to solid defenders and actually provide offense. Still not a fan of Green starting ahead of Z-Bo.

[qrich]

21-19 with 2:54 left....this is reminiscent of the playoff series' we had with Memphis.

[qrich]

And in a close game, we see how bad it is to have both Jamal & Austin on the roster

[hold this L]

Just playing like shit.

[WadeStan]

Clips still playing soft

[qrich]

This is just bad man, no way we should be losing to the Pedo Bears and having their offense look amazing.

Doc just needs to bench either Austin or Jamal for Alan with the second unit

[SAKOTXA]

ball don't lie if I've ever seen one :lol :lol

[qrich]

Hue, nothing is going right tonight man. Blake is absolutely killing but everyone else is just disgustingly bad.

[TommyGriffin]

Give. Blake. The. Ball.

[bdreason]

Conley earning that paycheck tonight.

[SAKOTXA]

Mike Conley outplaying the "best point guard in the league"

[SAKOTXA]

If that's a flagrant 2... just wtf

[L8krH8tr]

Clippers are the kings of complaining.

[qrich]

D stepping up :applause:

[qrich]

Paul putting in fiery effort but what the **** was he doing trying to dunk it...lay it in you unathletic midget

[To4]

Memphis making everything they throw up

[qrich]

Hue, Memphis can't miss while Blake botches easy lay-ups man, :facepalm

[L8krH8tr]

Chris Paul has a torn right labrum in his shoulder.

[qrich]

Blake and Green are gon get into it tonight

[qrich]

Ray Felton with a block hue

[qrich]

Oh that three would've been sweet....7 points is manageable

[bdreason]

Clippers defense finally showed up. Or maybe it's just the Grizzlies offense finally showing up. :oldlol:

[qrich]

We only have 5 turnovers...feels like so much more.

I love Felton man, dude has high intensity

[qrich]

Raymond Felton is a GAWDDDDDDDD

[qrich]

How'd Felton and Speights last for the minimum man?

[To4]

Memphis is just making everything tonight. G'damn!

[qrich]

JJ :eek:

[SAKOTXA]

Notice how happy the Clippers owner got for Reddick compared to when Jamal was rolling? Smh racist piece of shit.

Just kidding

[To4]

vince carter mayn.. he doing PEDs.. lol kidd

[JebronLames]

Vince carter this year looks better than Kobe's last 3 years

[qrich]

Two things you can always guarantee on with these Clippers.

Jamal killing Uncle Mo

Austin blowing a wide open lay-up

[SAKOTXA]

JJ is a fu.cking beast

[Relinquish]

Redick my goodness :bowdown:

[qrich]

Clips gotta break Lawler's Law

Jamal you dolt

[dazzer87]

Conley is nuts.....:roll:

[Naero]

Conley. :eek:

[To4]

Redick is awesome

[Smoke117]

Come on blake...you gotta put that down, homeboy.

[qrich]

Blake has missed five bunnies today...FIVE


Why is Jamal in the game over Felton?

[To4]

Conley playing great today. show us your worth of 30m per year

[SAKOTXA]

Chris Paul 7/6/6 on 2-8 shooting, but nobody will talk about his terrible play...because he's Chris Paul...

[To4]

b*llshit call

[qrich]

What an idiotic call.

[JebronLames]

LeChris Paul with the clutch shot

[qrich]

Emmanuel :bowdown:

[SAKOTXA]

That didn't even look like a kick ball in live play, these refs are on crack

[aj1987]

That was a terrible call.

I've never seen any team in my entire life complain as much as these Clippers. Stop crying and play ball, idiots. You have a 20 FT advantage over the Grizz.

[TommyGriffin]

Blake has become such a good defender.

[aj1987]

Clearly off the Clips.

[qrich]

That is a clear as day call....why are they reviewing it man

[aj1987]

They're still reviewing it??? Wow!

[Naero]

Another late whistle. :facepalm

[SAKOTXA]

I heard that slap on TV, wtf is CP3 crying about?

[dazzer87]

omg what a late call.......:roll:

[qrich]

What was that...are you kidding me?

3 Seconds later?

[qrich]

Ball is knocked to JJ, JJ hands it off to Paul and then the whislte comes...:wtf:

[SAKOTXA]

Lmao the guy in the background :lol :lol

[qrich]

Jamal :facepalm

[dazzer87]

Gasol........ that walk....:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[SAKOTXA]

LMAOOOOO Gasol trolling the Clips

[aj1987]

Choke!

[Naero]

Gasol. :roll: :applause:

[$LakerGold]

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[aj1987]

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Gasol... :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Milbuck]

The Notorious Marc Gasol :oldlol: :roll::roll::roll:

[SAKOTXA]

Somebody gif that shit :oldlol: :oldlol:

[dazzer87]

choke again....:facepalm

[To4]

choke again....:facepalm

Honestly memphis was hitting everything. Mostly 3's.. like WTF? :lol

[qrich]

Why didn't they let Blake control it at the top of the paint man

[hold this L]

That's the Clippers that I know, good job Jamal

:yaohappy:



Can someone please gif that GOAT Gasol troll celebration dance :applause: :lol

[qrich]

Doc simply got out-coached, he needs to figure out how to keep one of Paul/DJ/Blake in there at all times. Memphis killed us with Fizdale having Conley/Z-Bo/Marc all in there against our second unit. It was just deadly.

Also needs to stop playing Jamal so much, he provides nothing really.

Blake missed way too many bunnies.

Memphis wouldn't stop missing.

[Threezus]

The Notorious Marc Gasol :oldlol: :roll::roll::roll:

Gasol with that Billion Dollar Strut XD Connor takes it from Vince Mcmahon and Gasol takes it from Connor. Although gotta say no one does it as good as vince his is so outlandish and over the top.

[TommyGriffin]

Shouldn't have run a hand-off to JJ. If Blake had held onto it, he would have had a left-handed drive to a dunk.

DEAD. :oldlol:

[ClipperRevival]

This game reminds me why I have little faith in this team come playoff time. They lack that certain something. They leave plays on the floor.

CP3 tends to go into defer mode when the team needs him to do the opposite. This game was another example. This is exactly what he did against Houston a couple of years ago.

Crawford straight up sucks. His negatives outweigh his positives. And this gets magnified in the playoffs.

[ClipperRevival]

Blake has missed five bunnies today...FIVE


Why is Jamal in the game over Felton?

Lack of mental focus.

10-2.
Lose a close game to one of their biggest match up problems in recent years.
With all due respect my friend, isn't that what you call first world problems?

(We're 3-7. While we did slay the Lakers, we also lost to Brooklyn and Denver. )

Basically, your team looks great, chin up.

The point for me is that they didn't maximize their talents. And anytime you leave something on the court, you shouldn't be happy. There were several sequences yesterday, especially in the 2nd half, where they lost the little battles and the momentum switched back to the Griz. Like forcing a turnover but Blake blowing gimmees. Or CP3 getting blocked from behind in trans. Why the f*ck did a "smart" guy like him slow down? There is no way a 3 should be able to catch up to a 1 in transition. That's a dumb play by CP3. It's the little things that add up to whether you win/lose.

Fair enough.
I get your frustration. Trust me. (Top 3 in 1st, 2nd quarters, top 5 in 4th, and last in 3rd. It's like the Timberwolves spend halftimes doing lines of cocaine, coming bleary eyed to the 2nd half.)

Anyhow, best of luck. I predicted a big year for your team in July. I'm happy to see I was right, so far.

Rooting for you guys to make the finals this year. :applause:
