He’s only in this one scene. Police officer who pulls them over and takes a swig of what he thinks is beer

Ooh. Great reaction. Bad officer drinking an unknown substance even if it is in a beer bottle. Shouldn't be drinking on the job anyway. OK, enough analysis of what is supposed to be dumb and dumber.

[Shabazz]

Best player in the league through 3 games.

According to VORP, yep!

And Torrey Craig is #3!

Mikal is #9 and KD is #12. Oops.

Ayton coming in at freaking 184! LOL

Zubac is 199, so DA’s winning the matchup.

Now do VORP/Salary.

NBA.com doesn’t even know Who He Play For!

Even trade:

Either that or they don’t know the difference between “on” and “for”.

No excuse not to go up 3-1.

Ya we need to finish this in 5. Don’t mess around. Get this series over and get some rest. Will they wait to start round 2 with Denver or will they go right into it if both teams are done playing?

They generally go right into it once teams are done playing. It occasionally leads to a team sitting around a week before the next round when we get further down the line but usually it works out.

[Split T]

Shoot…think I’d rather have the time off before Denver. They are scarier than whoever comes out of the other side of the bracket. Guess we need Minny to win some games.

[JeremyG]

Yeah it’s crazy, they’ll even start a round 2 series before round 1 is finished for other teams.

If this series goes beyond 5 games, that means Lue outcoached Monty again. We should’ve won game 1, but if we can end it in 5 I won’t complain about Monty again…until the Denver series starts.

Sure man, it'll have nothing to do with Paul and Ayton playing like dog crap, it's all Monty not making shots.

You heard it here first, folks.

That was when Barkley scored 56 against the Warriors.

[Cap]

And the Clips join the ’94 Warriors and ’92 Heat as the only teams to allow it.

[Uncle_Gene]

Gotta capitalize on that. No let down Game 4.

[Mori Chu]

How painful it must be to be a Clips fan. They've had a Big Two that should have put them in title contention for the past 4-5 years, and literally every single year something has derailed it. What agony.

You mean they are still the Clippers?
