2003 vs. Detroit according to basketballreference. I heard it on the radio before the game, but didn't know who. I actually remember that now. I felt so bad for Tracy McGrady. In Orlando: Lost game 5 by 31 Lost game 6 by 15 Lost game 7 by 15 In LA 2015: Lost game 5 by 21 Lost game 6 by 12 Lost game 7 by 13 In LA 2020: Lost game 5 by 6 Lost game 6 by 13 Lost game 7 by 15 Not only have his teams lost 3-1 leads thrice, but they really weren't all that close except one game. Doc is a problem.

Doc is a problem. I vividly remember the Clippers losing Game 6 to the Rockets in 2015. I stopped watching it figuring they had the game in the bag and I turn it back a while later and the Rockets are up 10. Same thing happened this past Sunday too.

According to some report I saw on Twitter, the Clippers were apparently very fatigued in the fourth quarter. The hell is this mess? The Nuggets played more games than the Clippers and they had to come back from three double digit deficits in the past three games. Guess the Clippers were tired the past two games as well?

I don't feel bad for Clippers fans. Ones I've come across are just not cool people. I've met so many who are entitled like they deserve a championship, this season especially. After they got Chris Paul, it got worse because they got him and the Lakers were screwed by David Stern, Clippers fans got so insuferable. Then they pile on when the Lakers are bad. I have no sympy for them.

People were seriously talking about Leonard challenging Lebron James's legacy, please. He was lucky to play with Tim Duncan, and he was lucky to play with a solid Toronto team. He's overrated. Thatβs Bullshit

NBA def hoping for that classic Lakers vs Boston NBA finals feud
Ratings already down I believe, and no doubt Denver vs Miami wouldn't be as appealing but would be a shock for sure
Lakers vs Miami would be interesting too just because that is LeBron old stomping grounds and you know Pat Riley wants to talk shit while Wade will be rooting hard for Miami

I actually feel bad for legit Clipper fans. They've been waiting all their lives for a chance to move on, and the team just craps out. Now they have to put up with all the memes and shit thanks to all those bandwagon fans. I don't care. Talk shit on the Clippers blowing a 3-1 lead. I'd do the same thing if the Clippers came back from a 3-1 deficit. It sucks, but in the end it's a game, there are more important things to get mad about. After decades of constant shit, I'm still proud of the Clippers. My issue is misdirected trolling. Like, troll Doc Rivers and Paul George and even the team itself for thinking their arms were long enough to box God, but don't mess with the fans who've had to put up with decades of Donald Sterling's bullshit and being "the other team".

Stephen A trying to say this might be the biggest choke job in NBA history
Nah, that still belongs to recent teams like the Warriors losing to Cavs after 3-1 lead and Miami losing to Dallas. Hyperbole is going to run wild for a min and Kawhi going get backlash he never felt before. He won't be doing that rest shit next year and I can see him being a vocal leader cause you can't afford another f*** up like that

Clippers basically pulled what the Steelers pulled a few years ago where they overlooked the Jags and were already talking about the Pats

I get that within the context of them blowing a 3-1 lead it's bad but everyone that from the start acted like the Clippers were this OVERWHELMINGLY better team and the Nuggets had no shot was f***ing dumb. They finished third in the west! They were a game away from the conference finals LAST YEAR. They're really f***ing good, man.

Because Nuggets have choked away these opportunities year after year They are/were a good regular season team but every time playoffs came they fell short. Denver was the Western Conference version of the ATL Hawks because they didn't have that star to takeover and overcome other star best players

This is complete karma for the Clippers being premadonas.
Safe to say 95% of the basketball world had them crowned as champions before the season had even begun.
Kawhi chooses Clippers over Lakers Kawhi got PG to Clippers instead of him heading to the Lakers Clippers get Marus Morris and Reggie Jackson at the trade deadline preventing them from going to the Lakers
Meanwhile Lakers get AD - Oh they gave up everything and got no depth Lakers - Get Dwight Howard and Markieef Morris oh that is nothing Lakers got no bench and are still just AD and Lebron Clippers will trounce them
All these narratives and more that put the Clippers on a pedistal before they ever did a damn thing and now look at'em is complete karma...oh Pandemic P you in the drivers seat alright driving right back to LA on a half tank of gas and 4 flat tires.

Last year was their first playoff appearance in 6 years before that and they were a game away from the conference finals. The Jokic/Murray team isn't the same as the previous teams.

Last year was their first playoff appearance in 6 years before that and they were a game away from the conference finals. The Jokic/Murray team isn't the same as the previous teams. They beat a mediocre Spurs team, then lost to Portland who a perennial quasi-contender. This is the first real contender Denver has beaten, they came from behind, and it's seen as a gigantic upset. Nobody was in here seriously talking about Denver going to the WCF or winning the West in here all year. Yeah, they're a good team but no one called them a real contender or even conjectured that they'd be a mismatch like Miami/Milwaukee. Murray put up basically the same stats this season as last season, just upped his game in the playoffs. Jokic came into the bubble in great shape. I just wish the game was on TNT so we could have gotten all that reaction.
