Lesson#3 for Hip Hop Heads

PEEP THIS RIP BIG L

I have discovered a new group

Shabazz Palaces- album “Black Up”.

Really good stuff. Some electronic and some jazz/blues.

DimeSmash Dime Smash!
Off a missed lob connection by Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan, Blake Griffin cleans up the mess. Even when they miss they can’t miss.
5 minutes ago

The simple thing is that we need to play our best units more

CP3-Mo is our best backcourt, and though that 3 PF lineup was good once, it hasnt looked all that good since. Therefore, Butler needs more PT, or Foye at the 3.

Bledsoe should just not be playing right now. I was never a big fan, but right now we need shooters around CP3 and Mo, and Bledsoe is not that. His defense also looks very suspect this year, though hopefully he recovers.

I agree-he's explosive but very to prone
That is another issue

But right now our off guards in VDN’s playbook stand in the corner, and while that isnt good for Mo and Foye, that simply wastes Bledsoe. He needs the ball in his hands, but I would trust any of the 3 aforementioned guys more. If he isnt playing great D and being a real sparkplug, he should simply not see the floor.

issue is that his explosiveness offsets his turnovers

but off his knee surgery ,he hasn’t recovered fully yet

It's really weird that Primus is in an NBA commercial.
they should sign one of those kids playing at halftime

and drop Gomes or Cook

Preferably the one who got nailed in the face.

Haha I love watching those guys play :)

These refs are pretty whistle happy tonight-let's hope they don't F it up.
For once I wouldnt mind Paul getting tossed (as long as we win of course)

If it helps Foye and Mo get some of their mojo back.

You shouldn't focus so much on their troubles

players will have good and bad periods. They will snap out of it eventually.

Both Mo and Foye are having rough stretches right now

And I understand that.

But I also want to see them less reliant on standing in corners waiting for a perfect CP3 pass.

Of course, most of that strategy is on VDN, but that is a whole other point.

Well I still think that is the best plan

but I don’t like Mo with Paul. Mo needs the ball in his hands and a licence to shoot.

No I agree

Right now he is just standing there, only taking wide open shots or bailouts, which also get his rhythm off.

These Wizards are hustling--they can easily go on a run and we'd be screwed if the shots aren't falling for anyone besides butler
Rhino is seeing solid minutes for Portland

5 points and 5 rebounds in 9 minutes with 2-2 shooting.

I would take him over Reggie any day.

only because

LA is out

I wouldn't

Reggie gives us something we need: rebounding and soem defence. Smith would be nice for his offence but let’s face it, even last year he was an end of the rotation player.

I dont think Reggie has played great since the first 5 games or so

I still like him, but I feel people are giving him too much residual credit.

sometimes he effects a game sometime he doesn't

that is as much as you can ask for a rotation player

and Rhino didn't do that much last season

so give me Reggie

Looks like

the clips got another top-notch crew of officials…. cant even see the ball hitting the rim wow… Im also not like what vinny is doing with the rotations!

Yeah -I don't get his rotations
in portland tomorrow night

that’s a really tough back to back…trying to buy rest for key guys

He got them down with Chauncey in

Now he just needs to find a way to give Martin and Butler more minutes in particular. And stop playing Mo for 17 minutes in a row every game.

My cousin Vinny needs to do a better job with his rotations
Let's get this 2nd quarter started with a big run--
3rd quarter...
Oops

Meant 2nd half

Paul should have shot that!
Paul, shoot that.
I don't like seeing the words "Wall", "Paul" and "match-up" in the same sentence
Why not?

John Wall has skills

Cmon Chris!! Shoot it

That’s one thing he does I wish he’d stop

What the heck kind of call is that?
HOw the hell was that out on the Clips?
looked like a foul on caron to me

so I will take it

damn right thats our ball
These refs are a bunch of jokes.
You gotta be kidding me
What the hell are we doing?

Honestly, we don’t deserve this win right now. They are playing TWICE as hard as we are.

Bingo!! finally
Butler!!!! I love you!
Holy fuck, are these refs serious
Blake is missed off
WHAT ARE THE REFS DOING?!?!?
This game is comedy!!!

Too much starring at the refs. I don’t like their attitude today

now the Clips have some momentum

let’s sustain it

Don't you guys just like Butler?
butler with back to back bingos
What the hell are these refs doing?
This refs are idots
the Caron Butler show!
congrats Trevor Booker

you get to be on my ‘players I don’t like’ list

Washington has no right to complain.

DJ goes up for a rebound and 20 people hit him.

the whole bench AND coaching staff!
Chris Paul can't buy a shot
its amazing how much worse NBA refs are than any other sport
You must not have watched the last World Cup.
they can't keep up...they should probably have refs on both ends of the court
Cp3 needs to be more aggressive!
Get the ball to Butler!

What are you doing Clippers?!?!

how the hell is that a foul on blake?
"a scoreless randy foye"

no truer words have ever been spoken

Hehe

I would laugh in most times but today it is just not funny. Cant have a scoring guard who takes 2 shots, has 1 rebound, and 1 assist.

OMG this is fugly!
Foye's offense seems to be regressing every minute
Someone mentioned he does better when he starts but I don't see it
historically, he does

that’s why ‘someone’ is me, Steve, and John

last year he did

This year it’s another story

also, last year, when he started

he was actually a top 5 player. this year he is playing limited minutes as a starter with Mo being the true 2nd guard

Omg-WWF reunion----lol
Congrats McGee and Young.

You deserve to be smiling and celebrating, you finally made a shot and you are ahead by so much against one of the WORST Clipper teams I have seen this season.

We're not doing a good job on second chance opportunities

and the game is just so sloppy…

don't let Nick Young get hot

freaking Rex Chapman 2.0

Mr. Sandman

bring me a dream? please?

I'll take the one in the commercial
I dont care how cold Mo is

Stick him in for Foye, bring in Martin two minutes later for DJ.

foye has been defending young well
Can we trade that TPE for Nick Young??

I’d love to. Excellent spot-up shooter. Washington won’t do it, though.

orwe could trade cook for him

and gomes for Batum. because we get what we want. because we are the LAC, and we are entitled,right?

Foye hasn’t made a shot in like seven quarters. 7!

Great move by BG!
Calling it now.

Missed FT

God damn it!

you can tell the clips young age when they have stretches like this.. and thats because they let the refs get into their minds with the no calls and bad calls. They just have to let it go and play hard.

NICE SCREEN BY FOYE BUT NOOBYD WILL GIVE HIM CREDIT
we will mention he just turned it over though
washington's jerseys suck so bad
You can HEAR Blake thinking

while shooting FT’s lol

Foye, you are useless.
Honestly, I hate these bailouts for players like John Wall.

He is completely out of control, he bangs into a ton of players, and then when he throws something up, they call a foul.

Here comes the blue light savings!!
they need to fix their offense. It is not good enough

to win in the playoffs.

Damn one point game
So much of the -13 Clips had
Yikes...down by 2
What did DJ do??

How is that a foul?? Cmon refs, this is the NBA, where oversized beasts will bound to bump into each other every play.

???

?

DJ picked up his 4th foul

On a bullshit foul

Clips are in the bonus..let's drive, drive, drive
did he not pick up his dribble?
jr smith

how nice would it be to have jr smith out there right now

Sloppy and physical game tonight... Wizards much better
Clipperoo,

as a starter last year, Foye played 36mpg
this year, as CB’s replacement, he is playing 27mpg

it’s not all about starting. part of it is starter’ minutes

I think one thing that we forget about Jr.

He doesn’t hesitate like Foye and even Paul sometimes.

its mind boggling how shitty professionals can be from the free throw line
cant be good all the time
I mean, its such a basic thing.

And just about every player in the league has played basketball their whole life

Bingo!!!! Thank you Butler!!!
thank god for butler!
And Caron is still hot!

Keep going to him! How hard is that

Our spacing makes it pretty hard
That to me in inexcusable
"Butling" all day!!
Dang-- I heart Butlers shot!
Ralph called caron rasual
“Where would the Clippers be without Rasual Butler”
I just caught that myself :)

I love you Ralph, but Rasual is with the Toronto Raptors

rasual butler lmao ralph
caron should put up 30 tonight
I hate these little ticky tack fouls!

I hate how the refs want to let them play but then want to go ahead and call all the little things

Wow...great hook shot by K Mart
Nick Young just got hot...shit
nice assist from Foye
thats a man sized play!
Good job Foye.

You suck

McGee just walks away lol
Blake with 2 huge dunks!!!!
That was a foul.
someone drop a bucket of cold water on Nick Young
THERE WE GO!!!

I when blake shows that kind of emotion!

Damn what a dunk especially seeing as he got hit on his forearm
Has anyone else noticed more beautiful women at the Clipper games?
the brian cook effect?
Gross--cookie
cookie is a hottie

and you know it

Now let's keep this momentum going dangit!!!
We seriously need to run more
need to get steals like that more to run.

Maybe this will wake them up

CP3 is more of a half court set player

Too bad Vinny only knows pick and rolls

Haha!
explicit version of tyga's new hit single "lob city"

lob city bitch
lob lob city bitch

dunks on dunks on dunks on dunks

racks on racks on racks on racks
bacon strips on bacon strips on bacon strips on bacon strips

Youknow times has changed

when your gf wants to attend a Clipper game at the Oracle. +1!

And..

that while I am in the Bay, she’s in LA watching the game herself. +2!

Wow, why are we leaving Nick Young open?
that woulda been sick
Whats up with Mo's play lately?

I

He came back to earth.
I dont know!

i like that hes getting down the middle but when he gets there hes not make good decisions lately

mo got a hurt ring finger??
portland going down the wire with GS in oakland...

give em an overtime

why the hell are they trapping?

these guys arent gonna score much in the half court anyways

mo = missed layups

foye = missed everythings

I think Foye is seriously curse
Foye is just trying to miss shots now.
Mo gotta work on his hops
we seriously need to get jr smith to replace foye
Mo is missing everything...yikes
wow mo cant make any layups
Mo and Foye are terrible tonight
1/2 of those

are not much of a surprise..

mo = missed layups

on missed layups
on missed layups

how many freaking layups are we gonna miss!!!
Blake was just like:

Mo, make the layup or give me the lob. I’ll clean it up for you this time.

brick brick city clips
Settle down
slop city clips

slop slop city clips
cp 3 3 2 jack nich

CHEESE WTF!!!
Is a bit moldy tonight
mo + foye = 2-14

without the CP3 trade, this would be our starting backcourt right now

Foye+Mo= 2-14

Damn miracle we are winning now.

No Gifs if we win..

Just letting you guys know.

good

save em for tomorrow. in portland = big. even then, SA on saturday is HUGE

blake told mo to miss

so he could pad his rebound stats

Ok Keke's voice is boring
focus on his words

he has good things to say

the bob ross of sports analysts
gonna watch the end of this portland game
Mo is a bit rusty tonight but Foye.. well you know the rest
A bit rusty?

He has missed 3 or 4 layups. If that is a bit rusty, I don’t want to know what an off night for him is.

Just trying to nice and polite
I think we can give mo a pass

mo is going have bad games…. but foye come on!! i know you can play better then that!

So Blake is hacked

And there is a foul on Martin. Great Job REFS!!

silence in the gamethread

as everyone watches the portland- gs game

Where would we be without Kenyon?
why is monta out
stephen curry time baby!!!

do you think we could get him for our TPE?

Nah

but if you throw in Cook, I think they’d take it. I mean, lights out shooter for… lights out shooter.

Oh man... what should GS do? Go for the win or for the tie?

I say for the win. Steph Curry and Klay Thompson are deadly shooters.

Finally Foye! Thanks
Loving the K-Mart acquisition more and more.
portland wins. lol nate robinson
NATE ROBINSON!!!
wait did foye hit a 3 i was watching the port game
Wow.. Mark Jackson is an idiot lol
wait foye scored wtf

I don’t believe it. conspiracy

It was CP3

He just had a Foye mask and jersey on.

I saw it and I still don't believe it.
What's the joke about "Washington Generals" anybody?

I really don’t know about it

Harlem Globetrotters always play and beat the Washington Generals
washington generals are the team that always plays the harlem globetrotters

basically joke is that neither can win a game, since the generals always lose for the enjoyement of the crowd

oh wow lol thanks fellas
Is it just me or do all of these Wizards have bad attitudes?
Not just you

Awful team all around.

They remind me of us when it was barons first year
Loving this Jerry Seinfeld commercial.

DAMN THAT NSX IS BEAUTIFUL .

washington generals won 1 game against the globtrotters
It would be pretty great

if one of the Generals was actually extremely good at basketball, and decided to take a game over and steal a victory as a means of quitting the job.

I thought I read about this.

I thought they won more than just 1. But I know the 1 famous one, the Trotters forgot about the score and then missed a game winning shot.

never true

I payed attention. The globetrotters pull ahead fast, and then even when the generals go on a run, they never cut the lead to single digits. EVER

Come on now

Let’s not break down now.

i hate those calls.

just because the dude got blindsided doesnt make the pick illegal. a player moving makes it illegal.

Pretty illegal to me.

He hit him pretty hard.

I didnt see him move.

If he runs into a stationary brick wall and falls thats not an offensive foul

BINGO!!!!!!!
Gosh Chris is ice cold
cheese bingo.. my feed is late
lmao

Sammy just called mo a mother fucker lol

he's a cheesy motherfucker
I love good old Sam Cassell

Haha

Sam for Clippers Coach!!!!!
Sorry, but

No. haha

Sammy > Vinny
randy foye getting helped out with the foul! at least he can hit free throws
Randy is playing well in the 4th
I'm liking this KMart acquisition more and more
Im liking this reggie evan signing more and more!
He's been great for the team. I hope we resign him next season
Bingo Foye!!!!!!
RANDY BACK, RANDY BACK
Wow-Randy got his groove back
He just needed to hit a shot and sink a couple of fts
Game over

we lose

We are going to miss every shot from now on.
FOYE! OHMIGOD FOYE! FOYE FOYE FOYE FOYE!
RANDY FOYE BUMAYE RANDY FOYE BUMAYE!!
Mo and Foye decided to show up for the 4th quarter

Great idea!

Yeah for Foye--but in the meantime- Gomes Still sucks
He only played less than 2 mins and he is -5
Mojo...

I guess Mo and Foye got my last post of knowing they can play better lol

Pretty sure that was a 2.

But I’ll take the 3.

blake and DJ please
Let's go boys--finish strong
Wizard fans have no right to call Blake a flopper.

I just realized, McGee is a HUGE flopper. He flails his arms with every little touch.

That's his third one tonight
Lmao!!!

REGGIE REGGIE REGGIE!!!
@ McGee trying to take a charge from cp3

REGGIE CHANT REGGIE CHANT YYYEEEEEAH!
REGGIE IS WAAY BETTER THAN RHINO NEWCAVSFAN
This is the only time I saw Reggie upset.
Why is Reggie always pissed when he comes out in the 4th?
who was yelling at the ball?
'get in there ball'
I think it was Kmart lol
Mike SMith makes me mad

Reggie Evans was, in fact, on the team at the start of the season. He just had a foot injury.

Brian Siemen makes me laugh 'cause his name is s(i)emen.
Reggie is the only active player

whose rebounding rate is “99” in 2k12

Blake Griffin is a 99
No way.

If that is true, that’s a lie.

yes lol
his offense is what... 14?
Is that true?

Awesome.

yes.

Kevin Love is second with 97

reggie is a 99 in both rebounding stats?
Mike smith lives in my neighborhood hes a great guy and takes time to talk clipper basketball with me
Seriously?

Do you know if he is still scamming old folks?

I don't know the details

but unless you do, don’t say that.

As far as I know, he basically made a deal, the deal fell through, and the other guy sued him with no backing.

It was a joke...like haha...lol
SWISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lane violation...haven't seen that in a while
haha not sure im hoping not but he is a geniounly nice guy with a couple hot daughters my age (18 ish)
How is that a foul on Griffin?
My Internet hit the skids

for about a half hour, it’s good to be back!

We missed you dearly.
hahaha thats a foul on blake

Im done with these refs

Booger booger booger booger!
I read that right as I started to pick my nose.

Mind = exploded.

Ball never lies!
Either does Reggie-I ain't lyin--lol
Bingo CP3!!!!!!
BINGO!! game over!
This game is over right?
ok im not worried anymore

BINGO!!!!

its over

I think this game is over
The Clips should have this one on ice
man, you cant slip up in the west.
nope you cannot
I can't believe Detroit didn't beat San Antonio last night

that got me so frustrated…

16 pt lead....how did that happen?
can we get our bench in there?
Dang San Antonio gets two days rest before playing CLips

Damn! They are on fire right now

UGH!!!

i know i checked this out yesterday… and i was like damn they have 2 days rest and they have manu back… i think we really really need to beat the spurs to be legitimate!

DJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow. Just wow. Nice, DJ.

Travis, meet Wall
Paul almost dunked it lol
Game, set, match.... Its the law
Game Over!!!!!!!!!!!
Washington gave up after CP's 3

This is the team I remember

Did you see DeAndre pose?

That was sick!

Blake has 8 offensive rebounds
I like how Ralph pimps his law!
Ralph does not pimp
Tough game tomorrow?
yes

even with LA out. Rose garden is never a good place to be.

plus PDX

stole a win against the Warriors they never should have had, Nate McMillian has them playing scrappy again

very tough. Aldridge or not.

The offense cannot be this stagnant and they expect to win

okay vdn you can put in cook and gomes in now
but don't make a habit of it
Gomes is a drug

lst year, we were addicted. WE knew it was bad for us, but we had no choice

Yeah, I guess you know the Law is in effect when Cook is in
of course Cook jacks it up the second he touches it...

what a douche

cook is such a ball hog lol
Wow Cook made one lol
DId he make a "sshh" gesture at the audience after that make?

I saw it on the Wizards’ broadcast.

Leslie, Trey, and Cookie in!!
At least Cook isn't afraid to shoot?

hahahha

2 plays, 2 jumpers by Cook

share the ball

Can we do warmup layup drills?
Cookie-Showing signs of life
Trey is playing SF
well it is garbage time and the Wizards haven't got any decent Sf anyway
well I always though we would win easily, even at the half
Bledsoe isn't showing much

is he all the way back yet? Because if this is it…why did so many people not want to trade him?

I think he is just a bit cautious after hi injury
ok,

that makes sense

the hornets got raped... A busted EJ, a mid level pic, a disgruntled Kaman, and Aminu
he isn't

the explosiveness is not back. Knees are tricky. It’s one thing to be cleared to run and jump, it’s another re regain that attitude and jumping

We won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Catch ya'll later Clipets lol
nice win guys, thanks for having me!
we're more talented than New Jersey?
don't get too crazy now
We win, as expected

No GIFS for tonight

Dammit

this is so tempting!!! I dont know what to do!!

Follow your heart
I love KMart

He’s all about playing the game right.

later guys

lol
can I get the link for this?
For future reference

just right click+"Copy image URL" or “Open image in new tab.”

Neither is an option when I right click
what options show up? what browser do you use?
IE7

I can normally ‘open link in new tab’, but not for this gif. I could have saved it, printed it, e-mailed it, or set it as my background

What kind of horrible browser could you be using?
IE7
oh god, might as well throw away your computer
2 things

that citizens give me shit for:
using archaic statistics,
and using IE7

Get yourself some Chrome, dogsie.
chrome is just damn fine
I don't like the chrome

lol

it reminds me of the spongebob episode where the spray everything chrome… baaad memories man

I use Modzilla

I like that it looks like IE.

Way to exit with style
K-Mart really has high esteem of himself

lol I like it

I havent seen alot of Martin's interviews..

but he twitches when he talks?

yes

he had a problem with it as a kid, had social problems. Has it under better control now.

Has speech impediment since childhood
Kmart has had that twitch/stutter his whole life
Bled still looks like a project

I don’t see him contributing much this season, but i still think he has crazy potential

Though I don't like DJ getting below 25 minutes
I like it if we can win
Hehehe

This fool

hahahahaha. I laughed at this video for a good 20 minutes when I first saw it. And it was during play

More Lebron being a douche:

wow did he really?
anyway VDN plan seemed to have worked

Wizards ran out of steam and the Clipperoonies won handily

Lol, those Wizards fans are saying all this stuff about Blake.

They hate his complaining attitude and the fact that he flops hahahahah. I don’t know how they get off complaining about Blake’s attitude with Wall, McGee… and…….. their whole roster! And they keep saying he “flails his arms.” I am sure that I can go to this replay and find McGee doing that 6-7 times.

don't be to hard for them

they had a great game yesterday, had the illusion they had an chance in this one and Clipperollies just accelerate for 5 mites and they lose by 18

the guy in the background is hilarious
Reply if you see it!!

Sucker punch to the extreme.

..

that has to be rewinded, right?
Reply if you see it!!

No... I didn't see it

Haha, ohmigod

That is one of my favorites.

I'm offended

not all of us like the same food, you know?

And we don’t all know each other, either.

Hey LJ

Nvm

Thought it said suck it. HAhahahhaha. Incredibly slow internet can’t load squat..

Kmart!

so where are all the people out there saying that kmart was a bad pick up???

Lmao look at Coach Spoelstra

This was quite Paul like victory

a bit of a sleeper until the 4th when we finished them like ninjas

lmao

think about how lucky we got! if we didnt win blake… we would have got this… lol

I hope not!

At the very least Rubio (with our knowledge at the time.)

Paris Hilton should make a sex tape with 2 black guys and call it NI**AS IN PARIS!

I put up a recap... you can move it up there, if you like...

But I think I’m gonna stay down here and check out the gifs for a few minutes.

Someone posted this one before but its still funny!!

If olive oil is made from squeezing olives, then how is baby oil made?
