Can Clips win West?!?!

No shot. They will lose game 6 at home. 

nope, Clippers wins game #6, why?

because Warriors are looking ahead to Houston just like they did in game #6. 

Lets talk about why...

Hi guys, I'm new to your site. I have been an NBA fan since the 90s and basically gave up caring about the NBA the day that Kevin Durant signed with the Warriors. He essentilly killed basketball. Last season's bizarre series with Houston aside, the Warriors have been over 90% to win the title every season since they signed one of the most unstoppable scorers in NBA history. 

Ok, so a lot of focus is being placed on the Warrior's bench now that they've lost two home games to a pretty weak overall playoff team. I'm here to tell you that there's virtually zero relevance to that point with regards to their game 6 matchup against the Clippers. Could the fact that GSW is feeling the loss of Cousins and are now having a hard time acclimating Looney/Bogut to the larger roles they're forced to assume impact their overall performance against a foe like Houston? Perhaps. 

But the idea that a team with multiple MVPs, another fucking finals MVP, (and I haven't mentioned Klay Thompson who can and would be a 30 ppg star on half the teams in the NBA OR Draymond Green who has played in more of these tough games and continuously finds a way to be in the right spot at the right time year after year in big games) could lose to a team who's top offensive threats are Danilo Gallinari and Lou Williams? No that doesn't fly. 

So lets just accept the fact that GSW is going to win this series. I mean, lets. You know it, I know it. Everyone knows it. A team with the same exact core that just won b2b NBA finals running away against the best player on the planet isn't losing to the fucking Clippers. Ok, so if we accept it....are we then at least on the same page that GSW will NOT leave this series up to chance? Anything can happen in a game 7. Green could get ejected (It's happened). Curry could roll his ankle. Durant could foul out in the 3rd Q. All of the above would probably have to occur but you get the idea. Yes, they lost two home games. Yes, that happened. Although....one of them was a complete fluke in which if they had the opportunity to play out that 30 point lead again they would carry a win percentage north of the odds you have of winning the Mega Millions top prize this weekend. Another required Harrell, Williams, Green, & Gilgeous-Alexander to shoot a collective 66.67% from the floor and 94.4% from the line. Please re-read that last sentence. 66.67% from the floor and 94.4% from the line. Yeah, ok, that's not going to happen again. 

So then I ask you, is a title-winning supporting cast that is as well coached as the Warriors are, as experiened as the Warriors are, as poised as the Warriors are like Green, Iqudala and Livingston going to go 31% from the floor again? No. 

And before you ask, YES...Curry, Klay, and Durant will all show up and crush because lets face it....The Clippers simply cannot stop them. 

GSW has gotten somewhat complacent and they slept through that 2nd half with the 30 point lead. They slept through game 5 just expecting LAC to roll over. On the flipside, LAC had ZERO pressure on them, nothing to lose and EVERYTHING to gain. Is that going to happen again? No. 

Every bit of that has changed. GSW will be playing game 6 as if it were game 7 of the NBA finals and LAC doesn't exist in that space. The line is what it is because of home course, which in this case, is entirely irrelevant and the previous 5 contests which in this case, are also completely irrelevant. They are 25 points better than LAC in a must-win playoff game and game 6 will show you that. 

Prediction for the final? GSW 128- LAC 101 

No

Hell No. Close thread, the truth has spoken
