I honestly thought we had a great chance to win the West this season even if we just stayed the same as last season but we have seemed to digress quite a lot.

we were 20-11 last year.
i'll let you unpack the difference between those 20-11 records….but we were.

Our record my be similar but this season we have had a lot more ugly wins which could have been losses. My point was we aren't playing as good as we did last season. I was hoping to build on last season but with the West improving as much as it has, it will be tough to get a high seed with the way we are playing... even if our record says we are as good as last year.

I don't think our record says that.
I think our record says, "hey look, you're not in a bad spot. Make a trade before you end up in a bad spot."

Re: Game 31: Los Angeles (20-10) vs Toronto (22-7)
last year we had people out. this year is different. we have games we should have won and made very poor decisions in the last 3 mins. the coaching plan at the end of those kind of games has to change. I thought this team as is could make a deep run but I have changed my mind. we need a change. as good as dj is he just doesn't play all the time. with blake being an average defender we need more defense from the 3 and 5. the clips getting killed by people who only play really good against them. doc please do something.

After a SUPER disappointing effort from our Clippers, i realize that we are not built for a Championship run at this time. Not only did the Raptors spank us at Staples, we couldn't get anything going in the paint at all We are missing a hard nosed "BALLER" like Zach Randolph/ David West or even jeff Green and I am not sure that Doc is honest enough with himself as GM to make a move.I honestly felt like I was watching the same futility from the 08" Clippers yesterday and would have asked any of their key players (CP3, Blake, DJ. JJ) for a reimbursement if I saw them.
If Steve Ballmer truly wants to be "Hardcore," he better find a way to open his wallet and bring some help to our squad. We have the chance NOW to make the youngsters part of Clipper Nation, but if we don't win anything this city will turn back yo Purple & Gold. Ballmer has the chance to put his signature on this team in his very 1st year, will he do it? I like looking for him at games & watching him cheer, but he needs to start backing it up like Mark Cuban.
