THE 2015 NBA PRE SEASON THREAD: BEST WISHES TO LAMAR ODOM

[MVP]

If the Clippers at least don't make it to the finals what will they do?

Blame it on Doc or CP3? Blow it up and trade everyone?

They should trade the doughboy since he'll only get worst and his value is the highest it'll ever be, but they're the Clippers.

Well after this season CP and Blake are almost up as far as contracts go so maybe not blow it up, but CP leaving via trade or free agency is a legit possibility.

Was referring to before the 14'-15' campaign started

Was GSW supposedly "better" coming in to last season than SAS or OKC? After coming off a first round exit at the hands of... the Clippers?

Maybe not by the general public, but the Warriors were gaining momentum by some like FiveThirtyEight as a contender before the season.

?

Blake and DJ had great post seasons

Generally speaking, yes. But 4th quarters in tight games still continue to be challenge.

Interesting, that article projected the Clippers 2nd to the Warriors

Doc Rivers simply isn't a great coach

He needs Thibs just like Thibs needs him

 

[tomdiginson]

Thibs could be a great coach, but he needs to paired with a proper offensive coach. He should've taken up Doug Collins offer when he had the chance and he would've still been around as the Bulls head coach instead of sitting at home.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I always say I wish Thibbs and D'Antoni would get together and form a co-coached team 

They've both assisted on Team USA so I'm sure they have some sort of relationship

That team would be scary.

 

[pmatic]

I want to say Thibbs isn't as bad on offense as some say, but then I remember all the Joakim Noah hand offs he ran coming out of timeouts.

 

[thirdtimearound]

A D'Antoni/Thibs coached team would rival GOAT PJax,

^ Their imaginary rings already trump his 11, tbh.

Well, duh. Thibs brand D with 7-seconds-or-less O? Best. Thing. Ever. (If any of the players on the team could survive a whole season)

 

[MVP]

They'd still need great players, them two on the Sixers ain't doing a damn thing. MDA overrated anyway.

 

[thirdtimearound]

He was actually doing decent the 2013-2014 season until Kobe broke his knee (13-12 before Kobe came back, 15-16 the game of the Kobe injury). Once Kobe went down everything went to shxt.

 

[MVP]

Yea after LA scrapped that stupid system he was running and Pau wasn't being forced to be a stretch 4.

 

[noblekane]

Wow this mexico puerto rico game was great

 

[lawdog1]

Wow this mexico puerto rico game was great

Agreed.

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Anything less than the WCF is a failure for the clippers. Doc should take a break from coaching and front office needs to blow that team up if the latter happens.

 

[a-friend]

They need a President for sure, the Clippers.
I forgot Gentry went to the Pelicans.

The Clippers missed him.
Will GSW?

 

[sea manup]

magic 

 

[glennvagmire]

So in the Westcoast in every club "ain't no fun" plays all the time?

That's interesting and everyone knows word for word too.

I gotta take a trip to LA though no Bs
