I feel bad for Griffin, seems like he gets injured almost every season.

^Wonder that makes easier them to trade him. Hes expiring and although they are kinna better without him, losing him for nothing would be bad.

Clippers is weird tho, i mean their set up is such a good set up

They have a very good 1st/2nd scoring options with Cp3 and Blake
They have a very good 1st/2nd ball handler options with Cp3 and Blake
They have a very good anchor with Jordan
They have a very good 3pt shooter with Redick
They have a very good 6th man with Crawford
They have a championship caliber head coach with Rivers.

There must be def a curse that that team couldnt even make WCF.

What do the Clippers need to become a championship team? An elite wing?

A new city?

I mean seriously - we kinda suck, Kobe's not here anymore, they're a good team and still nobody here really cares about them. We're neck-and-neck with them in attendance even though we lose a lot and they're supposedly "contending" for a title every year. A small market city would absolutely adore this Clipper team, but here they can't gain any real traction.

I had the Clipps winning the division. It's not gonna happen.

It's time to blow the Clippers up AGAIN. Doc's gonna be history if this team doesn't make the playoffs.

That will change over time if we tank for the next 20 years like some fans want to do.

or

Curry,Durant,Thompson & Green.

This goes for the rest of the NBA too.

At least Leonard/Pop got their rings recently, they can survive the assault on the league by GS & Cleveland.

I get the feeling the Clippers problems are internal. If that's in fact true, goodbye Doc.

CP3 and Blake are out....when two of your best players are gone that basically makes them pretty vulnerable to any NBA team out there. Same situation happened last year and they basically lost the playoff series to Portland after going up 2-0.

So James Harden and the Rockets took the Clippers to the woodshed yesterday....bet they wished they had done more before the trade deadline. Will the Clippers even make it the past the 1st round this year?

Griffin is just really not that good.

I wonder if the Knicks really offered Carmelo for Rivers and Crawford.
