Torn on this Clippers/Spurs series. I could see a gentlemen's sweep by S.A. or a tough 6/7 game series.

Im rooting for the Clippers.

With a Clippers victory they would dethrone the Lakers as the best team in L.A. and would also be easier for us to beat then the Spurs in the Finals.

Spurs have too many 3 point shooters that can actually make 3 point shots.

They're going to be tough to beat.

WUT!

Hope he gets suspended for that move. He won't but it would be justified.

Watch the Heat fans or bandwagon fans say he didn't mean to do it. They'll say it was because he was attacked first and had to retaliate to defend himself.
People actually made excuses for his take-down on Rondo saying Rondo tried to hurt him first so he had to protect himself from the fall and Rondo was hurt in the process.

Wow - didn't see the game.  That is an utter cheap shot on the smallest guy on the court (just like Rondo).

I really don't understand why you don't hear more criticism of Wade out there for stunts like this.  He's not as chippy as a lot of bigs on a play-by-play basis, but in terms of dangerous plays intended to hurt guys, he's one of the dirtiest in the league.

Yup, should have been an ejection and a suspension.

This is a worse foul than the Jason Smith flagrant on Blake Griffin as its from behind and he doesn't even have the ball.

Did they even call a Flagrant 1 on it, or was it just a regular foul?

I'm not even mildly surprised.

Not surprised Wade would do something like this. And I won't be surprised when nothing more comes of it.

That is plain and simple, wilfull intent to injure a player by making a non-basketball play.  There is no way during the course of any normal play, a foul of that nature should occur.  It is a perfect football tackle, but not a basketball play.

Wade should be suspened, without discussion.  He won't be though.  The NBA is becoimg sad to watch on some nights.  Stern blatanly allows certain teams, and players, to conduct themselves outside of the rules all others must follow.

Glad to see Indiana win tonight.  Especially considering the dirty play of Wade.

Karma sure is a LeBron!

As of now the winner between the Spurs and the Thunder will likely win it all. Both are on cruise control right now.
