Clippers should have played better in the beginning, and not turned it up in the last 3 minutes of the game.
I can't believe Gordon missed so many 3's!! No matter what anyone says, he's hit the rookie wall, no doubt. His 3's have been off lately, even the wide open ones as you've noticed. At least he has the determination to keep at it and keep driving in, and did actually play some solid defense on Kobe.
That last play though killed me... Kobe was holding Gordon, and Laker fans sighed a breath of relief when the foul wasn't called because you know what would have happened if they did call it right?
2 free throws AND Clipper ball. The foul took place before the ball was thrown in.. So it would have been 2 free throws and the ball for the Clips. Lake show dodged a bullet there...
It's alright. I'm glad I saw some kind of fight from the Clippers, a win for the Lakers who needed it for HCA, and an awesome future for Gordon (with his clutch 3 and free throws in front on one of the biggest stages of the NBA, with the best player in the world guarding him, while also having to guard him back)
Respect me and I'll respect you. Don't respect me... we'll cross that bridge when we get there

See guys, this is what happens when you underestimate a team... "OmGzZz iTz GnA b A bLoWouT LuLZZzz!11!"

Yeah I said it would be closer then people thought it was going to be. Clippers fought hard, but the Lakers just let another big lead diminish. The bench was ridiculous during that stretch. Notice to the bench players: When your starters have ice packs on their knees, MAKE SURE THEY DON'T NEED TO COME BACK IN.
But Calm, you know I back you up on these forums, but don't complain about that last non-call. Because the play before that when Gordon hit the three and the Lakers tried to inbound the ball, Pau Gasol was blatantly being held by his jersey by Zach Randolph. So that deserved a foul, and it would have been free throws and Laker ball. So it's kinda a thing of two non-calls canceling each other out.
Kobe and Gordon had a good laugh about it though after the game. Kobe knew what had happened. Good fight by the Clips though.

I understand, but Kobe held Gordon 4 times when I watched, and I tuned in from work when there was like 3 minutes left in the 3rd.
I wish they called both then, because Gasol is more prone to miss a free throw than Gordon is, lol

I'm not all for losing just for a better pick, but if I needed one.. They all sound great. I've been a huge fan of Griffin, and he is exciting as HELL. Also a great rebounder and good scorer, a great player to center your team around.
Rubio is also unbelievable, kinda like a Shaun Livingston. He's proved himself in the Olympics, one of the biggest stages, even against the USA's best. He plays great D, amazing court vision, pretty good jumper, pretty tall..
I've been a HUGEEE fan of DeRozan ever since seeing him play in Compton, and he's going to be a star, but I don't see him going anything before #8 or so.
If Clippers don't get Griffin I would want Rubio hands down. He could be our future, and he's a solid player in almost all aspects.
