The Harden trade is looking decent for the Clippers. They could be scary this year if they can JUST stay healthy.

Another case where the starter (Zubac) goes down and a team has capable backups (Plumlee and Theis). I think they've won 18 of their last 22? That's bonkers after the initial "10 game warm-up" comment that Harden gave when he arrived.

Clippers might actually win a championship for the first time ever man. This is their best chance before the age and injuries become bigger factors down the road. They just need to stay healthy the next 5 months

There is no way they're going to be healthy by the end of the season.

Taken 45th. Where was Bobby? Couldn't invest in a high reward 6'9 scorer? Smh


I’m really missing your Neemias Queta updates. How’s he been playing?

Don't understand what 3rd string means? Plays in case of injuries. You know, like what the Raps are enduring currently. Does this compute or does it have to be repeated a million times before its comprehended? That is an honest question.


This is actually impressive how much you managed to shift the goal posts on this one.

Well done.

Oh? Explain it then. I stated earlier that having a 3rd C is useful like Boston.

There are no goal posts being moved. This a commonly repeated term you've been using on here. Clearly its misused. Why? Its been extracted elsewhere with zero context.

Agreed. Flopel Embcrybaby is just embarassing. Talented, for sure. But he's such an insufferable douche.

Mainly because the girl’s parents refused to work with the police.

I see 279 wins, or a 66% overall winning percentage.
