You're both right.
Even though I don't know the circumstances, scoring the ball with a few seconds left thus making the clock stop is a mistake. I was thinking the same thing when Jason Maxiell stole the ball from David West and dunked it instead of running to the opposite corner and let the clock run out. The clock is your friend in those situations, don't extend the game unnecessarily. But I guess that's the instinct of a scorer, I probably wouldn't have done it any differnetly.

But still, Blake should be an All-Star, next to Dwight Howard and Kevin Love(who should be in as well) the only player to average over 20 points with 10+ rebounds. (Pau Gasol not quite with 19.5 PPG). Pretty good company if you ask me.
Too bad that there's too much talent at the Forward spot in the West, so sombody's gonna get snubbed.

maybe because i can see him more because i get all the clipper games without league pass, but he's putting up amazing numbers. a rook hasnt put up 20/10 since Elton Brand in 2000

Still a rookie mistake. Definitely lost some points in my book with that one.

Like cheat says the LA Factor helps blake out a lot with the ASG movement. But dude is probably the most exciting player to watch in the league right now. You're damn near guaranteed to see something crazy with Blake playing.

he's very basketball savvy. that play isnt even that bad. others score there too. that late in the game, get points
plus if he holds it, the kings players were pretty close and the clippers were still on the other side of the court. they would have fouled him before he could pass the ball and he's a bad ft shooter. would have been disastrous

ryan gomes is stupid fouling tyreke "i cant shoot jumpers" evans on that 3

But if Evans' floater goes, you LOSE the game. If you're up by 5, sure, dunk the ball. But up one? You run to the corner and run out the clock. Worst case scenario, they foul you and you go the line, after seconds tick off the clock.

yeah, lakers are the worst team in the league

couple things.
1, im wrong about the spurs. i love their team. i love their defense. duncan only had 2 points today and they won easily. they're a problem. still think dallas is better if dirk is healthy

2, lakers suck. i already said that, but they're so bad i need to say it twice. you can dismiss the bucks and heat blowouts as not focused, but not this game. yes the spurs are good, but you cant get blown out again. at least keep it close. they looked pathetic today

idk what they're going to do. it's more than just a "switch". they are back to being soft, bench sucks again. bynum cant rebound, kobe has really really aged quick. fisher and artest are dead weight. yikes

Ron Artest is the definition of Flabby and Sick. His game is absolute garbage at this point.

Idk I dont catch too many games but for him to pride hisself on D. LeBron lights him up like a christmas tree every time they face up. And Kobe's definitely lost a step. Wade was working him off the dribble.
