PLAYOFFS WATCH (All in for 7th seed!!!)

I'm having huge doubts we get in also. We need luck on our side because GSW/Utah/HOU have to underperform and we have to overperform to steal a spot. Barring some ridiculous run to close out the season of course. Something along the lines of 21-6.

Houston seems to be winning.

The good news for L.A. is that outside of OKC and Miami, L.A. can take MWP out of their starting lineup in the playoffs.

Against SA in the first round, L.A. can start their best lineup with Nash-Meeks-Bryant-Clark-Howard

Or Nash-Bryant-Clark-Pau-Dwight.

Either would do, the second would be too much size for the Spurs inside

[Jajwanda]

The Spurs play a big lineup and then a small lineup off the bench. L.A. matches up well with them. L.A.'s numbers this year when the floor is balanced are absurd.

There's a reason L.A. wants to sign a washed up player in Raja Bell. If they can get away him with on defense the floor will be spread and L.A. will do well.

[wafer88]

Thank god for the Wizards....now we need to take care of business tommorow

[Kobe System]

Call me a bandwagon fan. I rooted for Washington, now I am a Clippers supporter! Go Clippers!

[Kobe System]

Thank god for the Wizards....now we need to take care of business tommorow

This. If we lose tomorrow, this Washington win would mean nothing.

[Optms]

But we'll win tomorrow so its okay.

[StarneyBinston]

And it's still better than if Houston had won.

I'm so annoyed the Denver game is a back to back. It's an extremely difficult game for us to win in the first place but on a back to back and in Denver it's nearly impossible. Ty Lawson will just run us out of the damn gym.


The reason I'm less than optimistic about our chances to make the playoffs is our team has two huge problems:

1) Front court depth is very thin. Dwight's shoulder could give out at any time and if that happens it's over.

2) An even bigger problem is our inability to defend speedy young point guards. We just get killed by guys like CP3, Lawson, Parker (not so young I know), Westbrook, Lin, Lillard etc. That's just not the type of hole a team can have if they want to compete for a championship.

Yes we can still make the playoffs but unless we find a way to defend opposing PG's better we're not going to make much noise once we get there.
