  The Clippers have now been eliminated in a series they once led in 5 straight postseasons, the longest such streak in NBA history.

  And the people who, for some reason, think Doc Rivers is a great coach.

  I was thinking this yesterday. They need to part ways with him.

  Doc got gifted a Super Team in Pierce, KG, Pierce, and Rondo that won him a title and propelled him to the status of great coach.
  
  He's trash.

  Can't emphasize "gifted" enough either. That trade to get KG on the Celtics has to be the biggest trade rapes in NBA history. At least the Kwame/Pau Gasol trade netted Memphis Marc Gasol.

  Lol. A touch dramatic, but overtime has certainly been anticlimactic.

  That's about the 5th time that Washington has switched on that screen and Thomas has scored on all of them.

  I'm drunk and really hate Isaiah Thomas. His trash talking made me root for Washington really hard. John Wall had an awful 4th quarter/OT. Pissed me off lol

  I'd cheer for Boston. Wiz are a better team, imo and Boston hasn't shown HC to be much of an advantage at the moment in the playoffs.

  God damn this GS - Utah series might be a huge dud.

  Brandon Roy's incredible unlucky streak continues even after retirement. Dude was shot outside his grandmas house the other day in LA.

  Yep. At least the reports say this. He is one of the most likeable guys to not make it, ever. Damn injuries.

  Always loved his game. And he was so smooth. Really wish he could have had a Grant Hill-like career after the injuries.

  So Markieff Morris got hurt in Game 1 but healed super quickly and played his best game of the playoffs last night. Just happens to have an identical twin.
