Did anybody hear when the announcer said the Clippers was America's team?...When..did..that..happen? ???

That is ridiculous. Media hype as always. I may or may not be siding with Donald Sterling about his racism comments, but c'mon. Some people just like to make a big deal out of it...

Sigh, tf the Miami Heat wins the NBA Finals again, all that hype will shift back to LeBron and his third ring.
I was against the comments, but please don't force feed the Clippers on me , which is what the media is doing..ugh.

Imma root for Clippers to beat OKC because they have the best capabilities of doing so and I hate that attention-grabbing-hero Durant and the Thunder, and then root for Portland to take down Clippers in the West Finals because the Clips are annoying.


I don't always root for any of my hometown Los Angeles teams, but when I do it's the Clippers lol. They're my guinea pigs.

I used to have quite a soft spot for OKC, mainly due to Perk.

When they drafted Steven Adams I was perfectly happy to do the good diplomatic thing and wish the big Kiwi and his team the best of luck. Then came this:

http://www.smh.com.au/sport/basketball/nba-kiwi-okc-thunder-star-steven-adams-wants-to-make-australians-miserable-20131120-2xv5f.html

Soft spot - gone. I want the Thunder to get swept.

I really wish Adams had been with OKC during the 2012 Finals, I would've supported Miami :o

I started to dislike OKC because of that Durant guy, Westbrook being selfish, and Harden being a nonfactor in the finals. Then their hype just made me detest them even more lol. Then there's the arrival of Derek Fisher. But add on to that Adams kid...he's the same kid who used a cheap shot trick to get Zach Randolph suspended for Game 7. Now it fuels my hatred towards OKC lol. They were much better when they were still the Seattle Supersonics.

Amen brother. With Z-Bo in the line-up Memphis would have won that Game 7.

It seems the Pacers are going as far as Roy Hibbert takes them.

Would they have?

They got their lead in game 7 by using a 4th shooter to create space for Gasol to go to work and hitting a bunch of 3s.

OKC took a while to adjust to it, but they ended up pulling away easily. They'd just crushed Memphis at home with Z-Bo in the lineup after all.

What is going on with Hibbert?

Gilbert Arenas is getting into his head -- I don't know if anyone's following him on social media, but he's been putting his troll powers to work for Washington (probably NSFCB -- not safe for Celtics Blog -- but google can help).
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.
