PO Game 6 - Warriors at Clippers - Friday 7:00 PST

[clippers1121]

Clippers +9.5.  Early start to this game.  So be warned.  Charles, Shaq, and Kenny can't send us fishing no more.  Because the games will be on ESPN and ABC if we make it until Sunday.  Screw them.  What did Barkley say about us before the playoffs.  That we were as bad as burnt toast.  Well that is what his analysis of our team has been.  Toast.  Hopefully, the game has Van Gundy and Mark Jackson doing the color commentary.  From game one these two guys have shown our team a lot of respect and have been very complementary.  I like these guys.  Hopefully, they can do the game Sunday too.  So great that Barkley deprived of the chance to send us fishing as they did with the six other teams that faced elimination and did not survive the elimination game.   Maybe Spurs will be sent packing tonight.  Then we would be the last team standing in the first round.

This Friday game may be Ralph's last.  If it is it is nice to see it is at home and during a competitive playoff series.  Instead of something like winding up with a 20 win Clippers team in Sacramento or some place which is probably where we would be if Sterling still owned the team.  This is the way he should go out.  A great team trying to accomplish something great.  Lucky Ralph.  Get to leave on a winning note.  Lucky us.  For having him for 40 years.

The game plan I suspect will be the same as Wednesday's game plan.  Tighter rotations with Green at center.  No Zubac, Chandler, or anybody who did not play Wednesday.  Hit the boards hard and limit their second chance points.  Gallo can shoot a whole lot better but everybody else shot about as well as they can.  I think Shai passed up a lot of open looks Wednesday and I would like to see him shoot more.  I don't see us playing with any fear in this game.  We got two from them so now we are playing with house money so there is no reason to be scared.  Warriors are the ones who may choke.  They played well Wednesday and winning did not happen for them.  Must put at least some doubt in their minds.

So just play as hard as we can in this game and let the chips fall where they may.  Home crowd should provide the energy so that should not be an issue.  Just get this thing to Sunday and anything can happen in a game seven.

I think we are living rent free in the Warriors’ heads right now. The whole team including Kerr are throwing tantrums on every call against them (for every 10 calls against us smdh). They are mad and flustered during interviews. We might have the Warriors right where we want them. The Warriors have shown to choke under pressure so if we win tomorrow, there will be too much pressure for the Warriors to win game 7, even at home.

[clippers1121]

Before our win in game two I thought there was no way we could ever get these guys to doubt themselves. But after last night, when they played a good game and lost, now I think maybe we are getting to them. So I figure we play hard and loose tomorrow and they choke then we have a chance to win. Or they could come out like after game two and just crush us by scoring 73 in the first half. It is tough to imagine Green and Beverley having better games than they did last night. So who knows what will happen.

TNT will wait until their next broadcast, to send teams fishing that lost on ESPN and ABC games.

They never miss doing it to a team.

I am so glad that if we lose Ralphs last game will be at home so the crowd can send him out right.

It’s game day.. let’s do this. Play our style and stay aggressive and we will have a game 7 at Oakland. We need to jump on them early. I’m hoping our home crowd will be ready and loud.... still believe.

Did Ralph do games 2, 3 and 5 on the radio?

I signed up for Tune In, but I don't hear him in those games, only games 1, 4.

Coincidentally, 1 and 4 were ABC games, while 2, 3, and 5 were TNT games.

[nuraman00]

Ok, I see, games 2, 3, 5, and 6 have local TV.

That's why he wasn't on the radio.

I signed up for my free trial of Tune In Premium to hear the radio broadcast for Ralph in particular, but that can't happen now unless there's a game 7.

[nuraman00]

So if there's a game 7, I will record it. I'm at home, and will watch the game live, so I can record the radio stream using my recorder.

Actually since Tune In offers on-demand streams, I could always record it after-the-fact too.

This is for sure Ralph's last game on TV. Game 7 is an ABC game and round 2 is no local tv.

Then it is bye bye Ralph after tonight since I never listen to the games on radio. I am guessing that Don Maclean works the game with him like last game. It better not be Ryan Hollins. That would be a bummer.

Bring back Mike Smith as a surprise guest.
