Sooner or later that will come back to bite them. Every one of these games against the Bucks have been close at the half.

Too much ZBO for the Clips today.

When they start playing better teams later in the playoffs, I suspect they'll start trying more. They did last year. I could see them being lazy against a team like Chicago on the road next round and losing a game because of it, though.

Clippers are like a petulant child, and it's led by Paul and Griffin. When things don't go their way, they act ridiculous. Blake's just out there taking shots at people.

That was a terrible call. They assume the worst of Barnes, for good reason. But how can you watch the replay and think that's a flagrant.

Appeasing the home crowd.

Wow. OKC Thunder's Russell Westbrook undergoing surgery to repair meniscus tear in right knee. No timetable for return

That's terrible. I assume he got hurt when Beverly crashed into him while he was callling a time out? Westbrook will fight that dude the next time he sees him.

This may open things up for the Spurs. Durant can probably carry OKC by himself to the Western finals, but it may take more than just him to get by San Antonio.

Well, we are done this year. We were kind of due for something like this to happen though. Better luck next year.

as a lakers fan, i know the feeling Every single starter suffered a pretty big injury this passed year. Nash, broken leg, Kobe's achillies, Dwights back still not healthy and labrum torn, Gasol tore his planar facia (spelling), Ron Ron with the same thing Russel is going through. Ron made it back in like 3 weeks though. Now we have blake and Meeks out.

Sometimes injuries happen.

-King- 04-26-2013 11:28 AM

Wow. First time missing a game since high school... couldn't have come at a worse time.

If Russ can come back in 3 weeks or so, OKC should be fine.

Of course, if they had a ball-handler/scorer like Harden to pick up the slack, I'd feel even better. ;)

'Hamas' Jenkins 04-26-2013 11:31 AM

Absolutely devastating injury for a basketball player. Hopefully they can repair it without having to remove it. Otherwise, you may have seen the last of Westbrook as the player he was last night.

Pitt Gorilla 04-26-2013 11:33 AM

Beverly needs to be marked. Perk may actually be useful for something.
