re: If harden averages 6 FTA vs Clips...

I think the Clips take it in 6. Houston is extremely weak at the point. Cp3 will exploit that weakness, and Griffin has been ridiculous all playoffs outside of a second half vs the Spurs during that series. Wouldn't surprise me to see Houston take it, Harden could explode. Just not banking on it. The Clips might have the best starting 5 in the NBA, but their bench is pretty awful outside of Crawford. Still the clips key guys > Houston's. The hack strategy in this becomes a wash with Deandre and Dwight both being laughably bad from the free throw line. Gut feeling is the Clips in 6. If the Clips win this next one though, game over.
