Not really. I'm pretty sure teams rather not meet up against #1 seed OKC in the playoffs when Westbrook is healthy. Or even the Houston Rockets, who is the hottest team in the league right now.

The Clippers are just going to fold during playoff time, like they did in the past few season while Portland is quickly falling from the #1 seed of the whole league to #5 seed rather quickly.

Rockets knocked off the Suns in a thriller last night.

big 3 Pointer by Patrick Beverly and 2 ice cold free throws by DMoe sealed the deal.

I was shitting bricks when DMoe stepped to the line - he shoots 59% from the line...

Rockets 38-18

The Clippers are such an enigma. At their best, they easily knock off a team like OKC (like they did yesterday). At their worst, they're dropping games to the Grizzlies and shooting 40%.

I think this season they have done a lot better against the elite teams than they did last year, and Blake has become a much better player. I think they get to the 2nd round, but I am not confident about anything past that.

I don't see Clippers getting very far when the anchor of the team, Deandre Jordan can't make any freethrows. He is shooting ~40% on the free-throw line, worst in the league. A smart coach like Greg Popovich would use hack a Shaq on Jordan.

If today was the beginning of the playoffs the Clippers would have to face the Blazers (4th and 5th seed). I would have a tough time choosing who would win that battle.

That's every playoff match in the West.

OKC is the only team I'd pick confidently in the 1st round (over Dallas).

I would confidently take OKC over Dallas, Spurs over PHX, Houston over GSW. The toughest to choose is always the 4th and 5th seeders.

Care to have a friendly wager regarding who represents the Eastern Conference in the Finals?

As I watch the Clippers trounce NO, anyone notice that when Anthony Davis gets mad, his uni-brow makes him look even more scary? (He just got a technical and was fiery mad)

Perfect. Nothing like a friendly wager to raise the stakes a bit.

One idea: Loser has to rep the opposing team (creatively and conspicuously) in his signature until the start of next season.

no no no i needs something better.

are you from indy? if so, the looser gets to:

1 - buy a jersey of the winning team
2 - make a banner that says "GO (insert name of said team)"
3 - Take a picture wearing said jersey and holding up the banner
4 - Post that picture up as his Facebook account profile picture and as signature here on bimmerpost till next season starts.


if you are not from indiana then i'm not interested, also the jersey doesn't have to be an official one just a cheap whatever kind of jersey/shirt represents the winning team.

Boys boys...let's not get out of hand here. This is getting too serious and complicated. Look at what happened to Litos. We all had to suffer his numerous posts with that embarrassing banner.

How bout we keep it simple, loser offs himself.

The Rocs are up & down.

Barely beat the Suns but lose to the Warriors. Beat the Spurs after losing 2 in a row to the Grizzlies. Never know which team is going to show up.

Upcoming games vs the Heat, Pacers, Blazers & OKC will determine if they have ANY chance in the playoffs or not. It'll be a very tough 2 wks for them.

We"ll see . . .
