I am so drained I can't even type...unphuckingbelieveable.

Down 19 in the 3rd quarter...come all the way back to lead by 3 with 3 seconds left.

Raja Bell with a 3.

Sam with an 8 second call.

Nash turning it over.

In bounds to Elton Brand thrown over his head and out of bounds.

I can't believe what I just sat through.

Throw on top of it all I had the Clippers +5 and UNDER 217 and this goes down as one of the worst beats I have ever experienced as a fan and as a bettor.

i feel your pain, had the over but what a poorly executed game on both ends, turnovers, bonehead plays, clips up three and forget to foul, fcking shit!! they will need to play a lot smarter to win game six. not only is sam cassell ugly as shit he has a very low basketball iq.

It just doesnt seem fair. Especially with the being up 3.

This is what bugs me about the Raja Bell shot. They went to inbound and I forget the player but boy he did an excellent job for the clips putting pressure on the inbounder.

So the suns are now forced to call a timeout. well the clips have a small lapse and by the time the guy gets over to the inbounder he already made that easy pass to Raja Bell. That ticked me off.

Really sorry about your pain, Clip. As bettors, I wouldn't feel that sorry for you, cause we all choose to go through bad beats by betting. But as a fan.......man, I know what it feels like to lose like this. Just heartbreaking. I think they are live to win the series still. Keep the faith, bro. I will be betting the Clips big next game, and I had the Suns tonight.

Still don't understand why not fouling before the 3 to tie, yes they had him well covered but it doesn't mean he won't make the shot either. I'm not saying if your off the guy and your late coming over but your right in front of him. Do whatever it takes to make sure the shot doesn't go up and foul, very bad decision.

I waited to see how it unfolded before partaking in the straight action. Got killed on props due to overtime and I made a huge play on the 2nd half under that went up in flames. One of the best bets I have ever made in my life when amount is factored in. Sometimes it just isn't meant to be. Sorry about the loss Clip.

I had the Spurs +2 Mon nite but decided to pass on the NBA Tuesday after that bad beat. Would have definitely pulled the trigger on LAC +5, now I feel like I won.

Losing the bets really doesn't bother me (although that was a HUGE money swing). I just mention that to point out there was no satisfaction whatsoever in that loss. It hurt in every way possible.

But as a fan, that was just gut wrenching. Anyone who doesn't understand that Dunleavy is the most overrated coach in the NBA just doesn't understand basketball.

This is exactly the reason I will never bet ON the steelers, although they had a 15-1 year I lost money as I bet against them more then a few times....If I do not bet against them I just pass on the game and watch

If you bet on your favorite team that you are a huge lifetime fan of and they lose you lose TWICE

at least thats how I see it

This NFL season I think I will pass on ALL steeler games might save some $$

I didn't see the game but what are they thinking not fouling with 3 seconds left? Unless the shooter somehow got wide open (just read Sharky saying this wasn't the case) and nobody could foul him this is completely unacceptable.

The fact that Dunleavy put in 2 players that had not played all game was just sick. Not to mention one of them was a rookie.

Then, not to foul was just a joke...but what was even worse was the fact that they were playing inside of the Suns staying between the Suns and the basket rather than guarding the 3 point line. All 5 defenders should have been at the 3 point line. GIVE UP A LAYUP AND THE GAME IS OVER.

Appears to be another situation of poor late game strategy. Gotta blame the players slightly too. You have to use common sense and take it upon yourself to foul immediately.

The competency of players, coaches and GM's is far below any other field.

silly game to watch - i will say the clippers can beat phoenix easy - slow the damn game down so they cant get the open looks and they become an average team - exactly what they did to overcome the 20 point deficit

phoenix had no answer to that game

but then livingston comes in and loses the intensity and next thing you know phoenix knows they can score again

i second cassell is the ugliest guy i ever seen in the nba
