Where is CLIP JOINT tonite!!! go CLIPS go!!

He's probably afraid of jinxing them. Wow Suns playing like crap. This is just like the last series, horrible first half effort in Game 2.

ClipJoint · May 10, 2006

I'd like to thank Shawn Marion for the early lead...regardless of the outcome of this series, he is one of the more overrated players in the league.

Very athletic and has incredible stats because of their style of play, but I am very unimpressed with his game in both this series and the last. He gets more easy shots than anyone I have seen. Most 20 point a game scorers are forced to earn their points...Marion gets easy dunks, layups, and uncontested 3's thanks to Nash and this teams style of play.

Nice 1st quarter...just as many open shots as Game 1 but the Suns just aren't hitting yet. They will make their run. We just have to keep pounding it inside and keep forcing them to play from behind. Pack the paint and hold them to one shot.

Tim Thomas has really been lights out in the playoffs. I remember when I thought he was a star in the making. Injuries really slowed him down. He looks like he is rejuvenating his career in Phoenix.

clip, I think if you take both team totals OVER for this series, the odds of at least not getting a SPLIT are slim to none...

I was dumb enough to bet UNDER tonight. It may be over at halftime.

If we get outrebounded 36-14 and are only down 14 I consider ourselves lucky. What a joke our effort has been. Feels like deja vu, big offensive first game and then we don't show up with an effort next game.

SportSavant · May 10, 2006

well call me a cardboard box but I am on the SUNS & the OVER for the 2nd.

:nohead:

It's fun watching Shawn Marion take off to try and get a fast break and hoping someone else gets a defensive rebound. Every player he is guarding is crashing the boards. He gambles for steals and runs out when the shots go up. He has been exposed in the playoffs.

I hope he gets his points in the 2nd half...cause he doesn't do anything else.

Radmanovic - 3 off boards
Livingston - 2 offensive boards
Mobley - 2 offensive boards

These are not big men...

WildBill · May 11, 2006

Exposed? He has been guarding guys he has no business guarding and getting a big guy on him all series long. It happens each year in the playoffs too and it doesn't surprise me. He just needs to play better under control and know open jumpers aren't really his game. He and the rest of the team should know they have to get to the basket almost every play, but they get lazy.

WOW Suns getting outrebounded 48-18. It is easy to see why the Clippers are winning this game.

ClipJoint · May 11, 2006

Need to get Mobley off? Just stick Marion on him!!! :missingte

Is Mobely another one of those guys Marion has no business guarding? By the looks of things, he is a little too tough in the post for Marion.

:lolBIG:

Kaman and Brand already have double-doubles, Mobley is 2 boards away from a double-double, and Radmanovic is 2 pts and 3 boards away. Amazing.

It would be fun to play this style of basketball all season and see their season averages. Inflated stats when you play this style of basketball.

WildBill · May 11, 2006

Maybe this will be the wake-up call we need. Horrendous effort out there, Clips will beat us by 20 every night we play like this.

HinesWard86 · May 11, 2006

Hey Clip, does Elton Brand have a nickname? With all the royalty nicknames now (Sir Charles, Prince Fielder, King James), I was thinking maybe Lord Elton??? I like the sound of it. Duke Elton is too cheesy although he did go to school there.
