Unfortunately, they will have to wait until next year for their chance cuz the other thread already said the Celtics had this season wrapped up

Yeah really showcases difference between someone like Kawhi/Durant vs Lebron. Kawhi allows other players still have their own game while he puts up his stats. Lebron is totally incapable of not diminishing other stars on his teams.


Crazy how that works, yet this team is going to end up with 0 titles.

Something common with this Lakers team then.

Gonna be weird when LeBron and diminished AD end up with more titles together than Kawhi, George, Russ, and Harden combined.

And yet Lebron has double the rings despite the fact that Kawhi has never played on a bad team. Funny world.

Aged poorly? youre saying its now proven the clippers have the greatest roster in nba history?

Question for you as a Lakers fan...in a hypothetical where the Clippers and Celtics face off in the Finals, who you rooting for?

Clippers bringing a title to LA and parading through the streets, or Boston breaking the tie?

I would not root for anyone, but I'd prefer Clippers to win, easily. I dont actually hate them or anything, I just find it disturbing how quickly people annoint them champs in December ever year for the past 5 years and never learn.

The Clippers are starting to look really scary. As long as both PG and Kawhi don't go down at the same time they'll be a contender. Harden has found his groove and Westbrook has become the ultimate role player. Don't be surprised if this team makes a deep push in the playoffs.

Also many other teams have beaten the 'defedning champs' this year. Not like that's an argument on its own.

I have been complaining about the Clips sending both Nic Batum and RoCo to Philly as I think one could have been kept, but you are very right here. If the Clips gave up TMann, I think we would still be mired in mediocrity. Terrance is not a scorer, but his defense on the opposing team's primary distributor as well as his solid glue guy play, has been the catalyst of the teams turnaround. Thank the BB Gods that the Clippers were able to retain him and I give Frank huge credit for that.
