The script. Whenever a home favorite loses game one at home the game two is always a plunger raping.
Clippers when they want to be are a much better team overall than the Warriors. If Blake Griffin comes to play I don't see the Warriors winning unless they have one of those games where they are hitting every 3 they throw up.
This series is going 7. I think GS is taking 2 out of 3 at home. I still think the Clippers pull it off. Warriors need Bogut back to have a little rim protection so Griffin doesn't completely dominate.
I think RoadDawg meant Bogut the other overpaid 7 foot stiff rather than the overpaid 7 foot stiff who is fucking lazy(Bynum).
I think Clippers win this series and they are a bad match up for OKC. Jordan and Griffin are two good bigs so Brooks will be dumb and trot Perkins out there. Paul I think is slightly better than Westbrook. Ultimately I like the Clippers because I think Doc Rivers will coach circles around Scott Brooks.

Clippers in 6 imo. Bogut being out is going to be too big to overcome.

Bogut finished 10th in defensive MVP. Yes 10th is quite down there but it is still a key piece to have against the #1 scoring offense in the league. I do agree he is getting paid way too much because of how often he is injured. Even when he is healthy his minutes aren't that great but he is still a defensive force.
Paul and Westbrook are different, both are pretty close for the best PG imo.

This. 10+ million is what a serviceable center costs. DeAndre Jordan gets 10+, Tiago Splitter gets 10, and Tyson Chandler gets 13, so Bogut isn't too unreasonably paid. He's at least a big body who plays defense and would make Griffin think twice about coming into the lane. Griffin can do whatever he wants with Avid (no d) Lee and Jermaine O'Neal in there.
I'm actually not a huge Clippers fan. I like Doc and CP3 ... Blake is good but a whiny little bitch. But they are a very solid team that Doc has helped a ton.
Part of the reason that Steph and Klay haven't had huge games is b/c the Clippers actually try to play defense unlike a lot of other teams in the West.
The Warriors are winning at least one of the next two. Book it. Granger and Turkolu combined for 28 in 32 minutes. The game yesterday got out of hand fast, and the Clippers are the better team, but they aren't rattling off 4 straight wins. Take all the screenshots you need.
BTW Tequilla, the Warriors allow 99.5 ppg. The Clippers allow 101.0. I don't know about the pace adjustment, but if the Clippers are better than the Warriors at defense, it's not by much at all. The Clippers are an above average defensive team. Nothing special.

Clippers were 7th in defensive efficiency, Warriors were 3rd. But that was with Bogut for the Warriors.

I doubt Blake Griffin plays only 19 minutes again in this series.

No Bogut is HUGE in this series. I don't think that many realize how good of a fit Bogut is with that team.
