"Lillard doesn't make his teammates better"

Elite defense my ass. Clippers played much tougher defense.

Great win great clutch shooting by the players. Get ready for next game.

RIP MOTHER FUCKING CITY

Think about that folks. A team that lost four a five starters beat maybe the best team in NBA history twice. The only team to do so. If that doesn't shout CHARACTER I don't know does.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

That was nerve wracking but AMAZING!

 

[Chris Craig]

We've got their number...sly no prank calls

 

[oldmangrouch]

OK...I will even admit it was a nice suit!

 

[Strenuus]

Damnit, Gerald isn't saying "special" or "man". COME ON GERALD.

 

[Sinobas]

Maybe we can make it to the WCF and all of San Antonio's old players will get injured. Then it's on to the championship!

 

[Blazinaway]

Great win, Dame and Chief came to play, very proud of these guys!

 

[Chris Craig]

DANCE PARTY!!!
