I feel bad for Memphis. The Warriors generally are on too late fr me to watch but they looked unbeatable tonight.

I went to bed after that shot..Didn't need to see anymore..

The sick thing about that Curry shot is that he shot the ball. He didn't heave it. He didn't chuck it. He took a shot, a 3/4 court shot.
It was only a matter of time before he did that in a game. Check out this clip from All Star practice where he makes three half court shots in a row:
I suspect Curry is going to have two careers . . . PG until he's in his 30s and then lights out shooting guard for the rest of his career. Once he gets too old to be effective in the paint, he'll transition to Reggie Miller-style shooting guard and, you know, have time to work on his shot. Ha!

who cares who you are, metrics say ride the hot hand and don't forced the cold one.
If a guy is 5-20, there is no reason to see it turn into 5-30.
I wish we had the balls to sit our star when he was bricking uncontrollably.
Metric say ride the hot hand..Bite me!!
yeah ... maybe we could yank our guy when he is chucking but no ... lets compliment him and post dumb articles of how great he played ....hahah
btw, your favorite coach should be ashamed with the way his team played down the stretch. That was downright embarrassing.
Did you edit out your metrics say ride the hot hand? Pretty sure you don't need metrics to figure that out.
why do you ask if it was edited? Cant you see that it wasn't?

Because I couldn't believe you said it and when I went to quote your post it was missing so I quoted hol's quote that had it. It appears to be back now. Maybe I missed it or it reappeared somehow.

Huh? Metrics? What are you guys talking about?

just so you know, you can see if a post is edited. There will be an edited time stamp.

So who's winning tonight? I think the Clips are choking out of control- I expect Harden to have a big game and the Clips to leave the game in tears. I don't want the Rockets to win, but I just don't see the Clips psychologically recovering from that epic collapse in the last game.

Cant see them losing three in a row, the backlash would put pressure on dismantling the team.

This is a huge game for both teams/franchises..Two games ago McHale took Harden off the ball because he wanted the other players to get their game going..I'm thinking McHale thinks he can't win a Championship with just Harden going for his...It's interesting because Harden does pass the ball but it is almost impossible for another player to get hot and take over when he is in the game because he doesn't come up court looking for u...Harden needs the ball in his hands to be effective..But if he has the ball no one else gets going..DHow and Josh Smith gets going when Harden is on the bench..Should they lose, what does this mean for Houston??
Clippers folded like a cheap tent..If they lose they can't trade CP3 or Blake...But they will need help..Interesting game coming up...
H1AND1@ 5/17/2015 3:17 PM
Houston is going to win. Just have a feeling. Well see should be a good game.
smackeddog@ 5/17/2015 3:26 PM
mreinman licking his metrics chops at the prospect of the Rockets winning this game- hawks won, warriors won- I need the Clips to win this game to save face!
holfresh@ 5/17/2015 3:43 PM
Clippers looking lost...
holfresh@ 5/17/2015 3:52 PM
Blake Griffin is soft..
dk7th@ 5/17/2015 3:57 PM
crawford reminding everyone once again why he isn't a winner

Harden playing D like it's not a win or go home situation

Its not like the clippers play old school ball, I really thought they would beat Houston and can not believe we are even here.
Either way, great game for the fans!

while this may be partly true about Harden, this can be set about a number of star players that don't look for their teammates and look to score too much (like our leader).
