The Los Angeles Clippers led by Chris Paul will be facing the Stephen Curry led Golden State Warriors in round 1 of the NBA Playoffs. I expect this to be a very exciting and likely a high scoring affair throughout each game of the series. I expect Chris Paul to continue to get the better of Curry throughout this series as he did in the regular season, averaging 28 points and nearly 13 assists in the regular season vs. the Warriors. Ultimately Im picking the Clippers in 6 or 7 but I have no doubt it could go the other way.

 

 

Starters:

Clippers                                                           Warriors

PG: Chris Paul                                                 PG: Stephen Curry

SG: Willie Green                                              SG: Klay Thompson

SF: Matt Barnes                                               SF: Andre Igoudala

PF: Blake Griifin                                               PF: Draymond Green

C: DeAndre Jordan                                          C: Jermaine O'Neal

Can't wait.  I live in the area now so I'll be at Monday's game.  Pulling for Curry but I am a CP3 fan as well.  Should be lots of fun to watch.  Surely they'll try to beat up on Blake but I don't think that works anymore.

CP3 is my 2nd favorite player in the NBA tied with Nick Young and behind LeBron

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
