it's just the first game of the first round and we've seen a few great teams who weren't likely to choke choke. :(

The bad decision by Tony Allen is to try a risky steal that turns out to be the clutch free throws the Clippers needed

I saw the first half and then I though that the game was over. Luckly, I have NBA League pass and I can see the game again.

I'm watching the game. Is 9min remaining in the 4th quarter and the Grizzlies are 95-71. They only scored 3 points in 9min. WOW.

Looks like the defense of the Clippers improved that quarter or maybe Grizzlies became careless because of the big lead

I watched the whole 3rd quarter ... then did not watch the 4th quarter. I thought I just lost 20 bucks to my brother but after we ate lunch ... all i saw was Tony Allen fouling Paul and those free throws came out to be the game-winner.

I got my 20 Bucks. I got the 20 I lost yesterday when Durant beat the Mavs.
So, Playoffs is the best.

What in the blue fuck happened? I woke up this morning and checked out the score to see by how many points they lost but this is what I am served with? Chris Paul. You rock. :applaud:

And Nick's scoring is paying off here. Good to see that as well.

The NBA should just upload the last 8 minutes of that game to youtube or something.

Simply an unbelievable comeback by the Clippers...alternatively, one of the biggest choke jobs in history by the Grizzlies.

I would have liked a video that showed the Clippers defense during that run. Their defense is what opened up all those opportunities.

Yeah it is Bobby Simmons.

Clippers looked pretty scrappy this game. Some untimely awkward injuries stopped them from possibly making another comeback.

Just great defense by Memphis this game, but I don't expect them to keep this up.

Chris Paul looked frustrated because physically they were getting pounded due to being undersized pretty much at every position. He had a splendid game but it looked like the Grizzlies had their ways with them especially in the paint. Gay looked at ease taking shots over the defenders all game long and they took advantage of Clippers' lack of boxing out and small line up. Watching this game, clearly Chris Paul was the lone star for the Clippers and Blake was showing up here and there but overall got outmuscled.

Either of these teams would be a though matchup for the Spurs.

Going to the game tonight. :D It was either 150 a ticket for some second level, slightly left of mid court seats or 450 a ticket for second row behind the basket. I went for the cheaper option.

Looking forward to this game 4, hoping the Clippers can put Memphis on the ropes and go 3-1.
