Series Thread: LA Clippers vs San Antonio Spurs

[purguy12]

Taking a Big upset here. Clippers in 7. Spurs will show age. Clippers lose in the 1st rd Rivers should get fired.

Either spurs in 6 or spurs in 7

Fire doc for what?

It'll be fun to watch but what is everyone going to say about Popovich when he loses and his old team can't make it work anymore? They'll give him a pass and the players because they are old. Also, we have to watch and "listen" to his interviews (more like grunts) during the game and everyone laughs it off. We'll see how things change if the Clippers can pull this off.

I don't think this is a great matchup for the Clippers. They may have the top overall offensive efficiency rating, but they are 15th in defensive efficiency. The Spurs are 6th and 3rd, respectively. The Clippers average defense is going to have troubles against the efficient highly experienced Spurs offense. Who guards Kawhi? Barnes? Nope. Kawhi is going to tear them up.

That hot Clippers team (14-1) isn't exactly hot against Western Conference playoff teams (4-7).

 

[bksballer89]

Series is going 6 at least

 

[Hambombs]

Spurs in 4 EZ sweep

 

[DJ Fieri]

This will be the best series in the opening round.

The Clippers in 7!!!

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Only Duncan and Ginobili are really old
Parker and Diaw are middle age careers
Corey, Danny, Kawahi, Patty, Tiago, Aron and Marco are still young

The SPURS have not been an old team since about 2009 (Horry, Barry, Bowen, Finlay, Vaugh, Stoudmire etc)
I dont understand how its still the same storyline for 6 years.

Then, I look over and see Barnes (35), Crawford (35), Turkoglu (36), Redick (31) and wonder why the Clips are considered the YOUNG TEAM?

Both teams are more balanced with young/middle/vets.

Spurs in 6.

interesting stat for tonight officials
Last 10 San Antonio Games by Ref:
Ed Malloy - Spurs are 7-3 in the last 10 he's reffed. Average Margin of victory = 17.5
Ken Mauer - Spurs are 10-0 in the last 10 he's reffed. Average Margin of victory =18.5
David Jones - Spurs are 8-2 in the last 10 he's reffed. Average margin of victory = 17.6

A combined 25-5 in the last 30 Spurs games they've officiated with an average margin of victory of about 18.

So I should bet on the Spurs?

Fuck Ed Malloy btw

hard to tell if this pure coincidence or these refs favor spur teams

 

[Logicallylethal]

Best series of the first round. I'm hoping for 7 games. Slightly pulling for the Clips. I want to see CP3 finally make a deep playoff run
