How much easier is it to root for this team over the last group of guys? Instead of being the NBA's poster boys for crying at the refs and blaming everyone else, we just shut up and ball. Even with the refs blatant attempt to help the Warriors win game 5, Warriors players would throw temper tantrums every rare time the refs made the right call in favor of us... I’ll admit though, that Lou 4 point play was a gift, but the Warriors had about 10 of those bailout calls. Eh, it was a foul. His arm was hit in the process of shooting. Lou didn't even lean in to draw that contact, it was a legit foul on the shot. The only "gift" about it was the ref was right there to see it close up as it happened. Also, it was almost identical to this: twitter.com/i/status/1121271902276743173 |

The refs called a decent game with one exception - Green should have been tossed. |

The important thing is that the Clippers didn’t fall apart after losing that lead in the 4th. I’m so happy Klay’s bitch ass is still running his mouth. Let’s go beat them by 30 tomorrow night. |

The refs called a decent game with one exception - Green should have been tossed. I don’t think so. You couldn’t allow wind to go KD’s direction without him getting bailed out. Falling on your own 2 feet after shooting a jump shot is not a foul. What I liked, our guys just went back and played basketball while the Warriors threw tantrums Cam Newton Super Bowl style literally EVERY TIME calls go against them. That’s a big reason why I can’t stand the Rockets and Warriors and so happy we moved on from that soft, whiny Lob City era. |

The "fans" are even worse with their "refs, you suck" chants. Earth to Warriors "fans": you guys have been the beneficiary of rigged reffing your entire lives, first back when you were still Lakers "fans" and now when you've hopped on the Warriors bandwagon. Nobody feels bad for you. |

Hey I hope you saw my take on another page in this thread...yet again I gave credit... i can say when I was wrong..... Yeah, you gave credit to Lou, htownfan . Read this today to back up why I talked about Lou prior to this year's playoffs..........An ESPN article....... www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/26605302/5-5-clippers-exposing-real-warriors-problems Kevin Pelton, ESPN: The Clippers. Specifically, the ability of Williams and Harrell to be effective in the playoffs, something that's crucial for the Clippers with realistic expectations of a longer playoff run next season. Before this year, Williams had been as poor in the postseason relative to his regular-season performance as any current NBA player, while Harrell had played just 33 career playoff minutes. So their play has been pleasantly surprising. |

Before this year, Williams had been as poor in the postseason relative to his regular-season performance as any current NBA player, while Harrell had played just 33 career playoff minutes. So their play has been pleasantly surprising. Lou hit rock bottom tonight, he's not quite able to deliver every single game against a team really focusing that much attention on him. He came through even against hellacious defense quite a few times this series. He has struggled in the postseason before with his style getting exposed, but I consider Lou a different player now. He's the rare guy who has entered his prime really late in his career. Because his game is reliant more on angles and creating space through deception and not on explosive athleticism he should continue to play at this level or higher for a couple more years as his shooting continues to improve. |
