It can happen to anyone and any team can beat any other team on any given day in this league. I've watched the NBA for far too long to get over confident. Most folks regardless of the subject have short memories. I try not to be one of those people.

Biggest thing to keep in mind is the Clippers came back on the Spurs in the same situation a few years ago. Of course, they did have Griffin.
But think of this: Utah lost at home in game 3, and we almost lost in game 4. Had to come back a little bit on them in the 4th from 7 down. So yes, it's possible. It won't be easy.

The Clips don't have enough 2-way players to guard the Jazz and score at the other end. If the Jazz make their shots at an average rate they should win.
The other thing is that the Clips can't normally keep up with the Jazz on the boards, and it means the Jazz will get more shot attempts. The Clips will need big-time offensive performances from CP, Crawford, Redick and probably Rivers too. They just don't have any margin of error against us
The Jazz have enough depth that if someone's having a bad game they can be replaced. Hood, Hayward and Johnson have all been in a good groove. If the Jazz get some touch out of Hill, Favors or Ingles, the offense should flow. Plus, Rudy's going to play like a raging bull.

I think this game is gonna be tough as hell to win. If we win, it will be just barely. Paul has been Dynamite in this series on 2+ days rest. I think Paul is gonna have another epic Point God night and if he gets help from Crawford or JJ we could easily lose this game.
Fans were way too confident after game 5.
Our team has more growing to do.

Absolutely. There were folks on this board and other internet sites talking about the Warriors. They were talking about the 2nd round. Those folks are the same folks who blame refs for these types of losses.

I started this thread to tell people not to do that.

The op was not necessary to begin with, it was just stating the obvious

Okay...
So is denial a powerful thing? Or is it that this thread wasn't necessary? Or do you just have some kind of problem with me and you're gonna post stupid **** in response to me over and over?
