I hope he keeps being a man of the people as he gets older. Chess in NYC in the rain, soccer with Costa Rican kids. He really gets it and it's just him being genuine and himself.


Yo, this is dope. If he is playing soccer he should be cleared to hoop.


I was wondering about that.

Wemby is so easy to root for.

As long as the thing that always happens doesn't happen.

I've kind of discarded them mentally for that reason.

You should read that JVG article I posted earlier. Apparently he’s the main reason for the clippers turn around. He is the guy I want if we fire Thibs

We barely beat a Schroder led piston team tonight. We’ll be glad if we even make it out of this round :lol:

Not surprised he and Lue are a good coaching pairing but it comes down to Kawhi.

Yeah of course. Hopefully Kawhi stays healthy. But they also wouldn’t be where they are now without JVG either. Wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up as a head coach again somewhere.

If he wants to, for sure.

I hope Clippers get to face OKC in full force. Clips have been maligned (in hindisight deservedly) for that PG13 trade but it would be nice if they have a chance to soften the narrative by beating OKC in a playoff series.

They would have lost if JA didn't get hurt. I don't know if they have anyone for Kawhi either, all that Lu Dort stuff is cute, but Kawhi is a different animal and the same beast.

My Nuggets are cooked. Jokic should be "either bring me Giannis or send me to the Lakers or Celtics".

Yeah having an elite 3 level scorer like that 100% for the playoffs is a game breaker

that lu dort thing is suspect. not that he didn't slip, but when you slip you automatically bring your hands down to stop your fall. that man slipped and put his hands up to grab ja.

finished LAC - DEN.
This Clippers roster is insane. If (big if obv..) Kawhi stays healthy, they are definitely a contender. Just a whole bunch of scoring options and versatile defenders.
Denver is pretty much dead at this point. They have the same problem as we do and need to split one of their expensive guys into more pieces.
The Westbrook story is always cute and fun... until he has to make shots in the playoffs.
