The Los Angeles Clippers stood no chance against the San Antonio Spurs — and that’s why the rest of the NBA needs to be afraid of Gregg Popovich.
When you piss off The Hulk, he gets all heavy with the testosterone and turns green. When you piss off Gregg Popovich, he straight up embarrasses you on the floor and drops the mic on his way out of the building.
The San Antonino Spurs are only up 2-1 on the Los Angeles Clippers in their series, but Game 3 was a back breaker for the Clippers in so many ways. The Spurs didn’t just destroy Los Angeles, they murdered them and were as American Psycho about it as inhumanly possible.
Los Angeles is shaking in their shorts — but the rest of the NBA was just put on notice as well.
The rest of the Western Conference though that the Spurs might be taking a step back, but they showed with great force that they’re going nowhere without knocking out some teeth before they exit. After the way they played in Game 3, the Spurs won’t be going anywhere anytime soon and that’s scary for everyone still standing in the playoffs.
It was like the scene in Game of Thrones where Prince Oberyn knocks down The Mountain and then mocks him as he lays dying. That’s what the Spurs are doing right now, as they’re simply mocking the rest of the NBA while the Clippers lie dying on the court, bleeding out from their various errors committed and from the brutal battering they endured on Friday night.
