I love the way John Hollinger hates us! Was he denied a job with the Clippers or something

I agree with J.A. !!

I read him all the time, along with Mike Heisler he's the best basketball columnist there is

Didnt Jalen Rose say we'd be 8th seed on draft night? That bitch changed his mind

I like the 7/8 seed predictions but anything else is propaganda.

9th is legitimate, 10th would be too if Barry actually gave some sort of analysis to backup his claim other than "I like Griffin, but it's the Clippers". The 12 predictions are just pathetic.

Even if we sucked I would predict we'd do better than OKC,MIN,HOU,MEM, and SAC. So I don't think we'll do worse than 10th. Not with the better conditioning our players have this year, and the more depth we got this summer.

it's the ultimate argument and noone ever questions it.

I can see us anywhere from 7-10, it all depends on how the season goes. I don't see how we can be 12th, and just saying that we're the Clippers isn't an excuse to say we will have a poor season. I really don't see how the Warriors could finish better than us.

I think the Warriors will be a surprise team. No one expects anything from them, just like the '07 team. Still, we SHOULD finish ahead of them.

BTW, anyone notice how Adande is on the Clips bandwagon all of a sudden? He never gave props to the Clips. It's quite amusing.

12th? That's messed up. If we start off strong and we are somewhere near 9th by the All-Star game, I expect this team to be able to push hard and work for that 8th seed. Dig ourselves a hole in the beginning of the season, and it'll be extremely difficult to get out of it.
