I'm intrigued by the Nets and now the Heat for all the wrong reasons

Maybe its the whole them being better the past 5 years? Of course that may not be true next season but...back to this again
meanwhile, no one still answered my question as to why the clippers are levels above the grizz. the conversation just went away with no one making a real point.

This.Because CP3/Blake/DJ is still better than anything the Grizz have.

Last time Westbrook led the team, he lost his damn mind and tried to do everything. OKC needs to make sure Oladipo, Kanter and Payne take some of the load off.
Grizz are vastly overrated. Don't understand the hype or praise.
because they are better at every position other than maybe SF.back to this again

Grizz peaked in 2013.
2 of their best 3 players are on the wrong side of 30...and one coming off a major injury. Their "star" PG is vastly overpaid...even with the new cap. And is also coming off an injury. Their offseason addition is another oft injured wing. Though he gives them much needed spacing. Bench is funny in the light, and very unproven.
There still isn't enough shooting. This is a 5-8 seed team with a quick first round exit.
How is Marc on the wrong side of 30 when he and Chris Paul are the same age?
Joerger was hyped as the answer at head coach and the real reason the Memphis defense was as good as it had been. He gets fired and now it won't affect the team
Parsons was a bad signing for Dallas a few years ago. Memphis signs him for twice as much and now it's a good signing.
I can't eem tow it.
I'll place a $100 wager with you that the Clippers finish ahead of Memphis barring any major injuries on either team.
Chris Paul has, and will continue to be a better player than Marc Gasol. The Cp3 fall off hasn't happened yet.
But that 36 year old Zbo and 31 year old Gasol FC isn't what it was 3 years ago.
Marc may be the better offensive player, but Deandre is a better defender and rebounder which fits better on the team. Marc is also about to be 32, deandre is about to be 28. I'd rather have deandre.Last 5 years playoff records
Clippers won 21-29 (2 1st round exits); still no WCF appearance
Grizzlies: 20-24 (3 1st round exits)
at Deandre Jordan being considered better than Marc
Still waiting on the great disparity between both teams. The analysis in here fell off hard a while back.
Marc is much better than Jordan. Parsons is much better than whoever they have at SF. Let's not even go into what they would look like against each other in a playoff series.
But this whole discussion began because people have th clippers finishing top three and Memphis finishing bottom 4
Do you agree that th Clippers will finish ahead of Memphis? If so, wouldn't you agree that higher-seeded teams usually fair better in the playoffs than lower-seeded teams? If you agree with all thi I don't see why uou get so upset when people post their predictions.
Chris PAul =/== Marc Gasol
Marc is great but CP3 has not fallen off at all. He is one of the best PG's of all-time, a HOF and still a top 10 guy in the league.
Marc is great but he's 30+ coming off a foot injury which is scary for big guys and is not an amazing athlete in the first place.
Blake is coming back from an injurt that isn't ligament related and is an elite athlete in the peak of his athletic prime.
Everyone except for Conley on the Grizz is past their peak or has already had devastating injuries.
Clips have issues and their issues are Doc Rivers as a GM and lack of depth. But they have three guys that are as good as anybody else's big 3 in the league pretty much.
Grizz don't have that.
