I feel the rot started when Curry was substituted out way too early in the third quarter. By the time he came back in, LAC were already on a roll and had grown in confidence. We still should have won that one comfortably.

He got subbed out because he picked up his 4th foul.
Right, for some reason I thought it was his third foul, which didn't make sense at the time. So perhaps the rot started when Curry picked up his fourth foul! But either way, there was no urgency on defence and some horrible ball movement on offence from that moment on.

Bogut starting looks so much better than when Cousins started.

He's no where near as good as Cousins obviously, but he's he perfect fit.

Still super worried about us having to reply on him being healthy.

Agree, like the Bogut/Looney combo.

Looney has improved a lot, is very solid, smart and plays within himself.
Like that has added a 10-15 footer to his game.

Looney drives to the basketball for easy dunks really well too. The players notice when defence slacks off him and he gets fed for the slam.

Looks like we get it done in game 4.

Cranked up the D when it mattered and controlled Lou Will.

Steph struggled but a few big buckets late.

Rebound and D good, but needs to sort out early foul trouble.

Klay got it rolling with KD on offence.

Really like McKinnie, long, quick and active, great pick up.

Bogut has been seamless and Iguadala looks 5 years younger once it gets to playoff time.

Great season for the Clips, could have shut it down once Harris was traded, interesting to see what they do in the offseason.

Understanding we still have to win game 5.

Yeah, I was surprised by the media piling it on Iggy throughout the yeat, saying he wasn't as good as last year.

The two years were identical. 6 points, 4 boards and 3 assists. He's actually shot better this year.

People seem to forget he never gets stats. That's not what he's there for.

What a dumpster fire...no urgency at all. No cuts or working the ball inside...rather throw up deep contested two's. Drinks on me if we pull this one off, but I guarantee my money is safe.

On we go to game 6.

Normally Lou Will beats us once a year with a dominant 30 point game.

Has done it twice at Oracle this series, where we have been scratchy compared to recent years.

KD pretty much the offence tonight, with the odd three from the Splash Bros.

Wasn’t our offence that beat us, it was the D.

Gallo came to play but the Harrell/Lou Will combo and Beverley’s intensity and 3’s early that gave them belief.

Didn’t think Houston was that impressive in games 3-5 vs Utah, could have lost all 3 if the Jazz made some shots and Gobert wasn’t stripped down low repeatedly.

Need to put this thing to bed.

We know who you are KD!!!!

D was excellent, everyone looked engaged.

Interesting that Liv started, but the story is 50 from KD.

What can you say? If he does head to NY I think all Dubs fan can say is THANK YOU.

KD was amazing. One of the great post season performances.

Liv was a weird start, and he was terrible. I wouldn't be shocked if he is traded/bought out in the off-season (unless there is some injury I'm unaware of).

Shaun has said he might retire at the end of this season.

His knee is swelling and body in general is giving him grief.

Great career after the injury he had.

Used to be good for 8-10 points a game when his post/mid range game got going, still solid with the ball and plays D, smart head.

The bench will need re enforcing next year.

Miss D.West.

Miss the Blur too.

We'll be real shallow again if Durant stays. Might get some cheap championship chasers.

If Durant goes we'll obviously need much more depth. But at least we will have some money to do it.
