I think Simons got my favorite jumper in the league. **** is picture perfect.
 
Are we sure the Clippers are as good as everyone assumes they are? I feel like people fell in love with the idea of what the Clippers could be and not what they are, they're 3-6 on the road now. I hear a lot of "theoretically they should be a dominant team" or "on paper they're the best team in the league".

it's still very early and I don't want to jump to conclusions, but that's been my early observation.
 
Still waiting to hear from Clipper nation tonight
Imagine gloating when your team couldn't even beat the 4th best team in the East at home when they didn't have Lowry or Ibaka. Let alone the best team in the East.

Not that I would expect much different from the worst fanbase on Earth.
 
I won’t entirely shoot down the 09 Cavs comparison because I get it’s Giannis with no real supporting star. And I would still be surprised to see them win the championship.

But the Bucks also have far more supporting talent than Bron had and far far far better coaching.

I’ve also been conditioned my entire life to be pessimistic towards them so I might not have the clearest opinion on what they can achieve.

Every time I tune into a Blazers game, Bazemore is barreling into defenders like he's LeBron.

Harrell inside by himself is not enough. That's the clear and obvious answer. But I'm not sure if Clips fans recognize it because they're not accustomed to knowing what championship squads should be comprised of.

I mean let's think about it for a sec....last year Kawhi had Siakam, Gasol, Ibaka, and OG Anouby behind him.

Yeah your last sentence hits the nail on the head. I get why folks would try the comp I guess, but it isn't really comparable.

The bucks are really damn good for one, and for two, saying the Clips "aren't that good" or whatever is weird considering

1) They've beaten the Lakers, Mavericks, Raptors, Utah, Boston, and Houston

2) Kawhi and PG have played EIGHT games together :lol: :lol: now if you have qualms about that, them playing so little due to injury and how that'll affect LAC long term then so be it, but make no mistake about it no one's a finished product EIGHT games in.

It's a bad loss no doubt, but it's a bad loss in early December. Game 23. Long game. That doesn't guarantee anything, but it really is still early for Kawhi and PG.

Lakers went into Denver and handled them easily. The nuggets with the 2nd best Western Conf record and best defensive record and then next day went into Utah and took care of them easily.
