Despite losing to the Grizz last night, the Clippers look like the best team in the West to me. My opinion could change if the Warriors find a way to shore up their interior defense. As of right now, I think the Clippers would take a seven game series.
I could turn out to be dead wrong. It's just November, after all.
Here's my question. If the Clippers win the West, and the Cavs win the East, who would you want to lose more? I think we'd see some heads explode on this board. |

I would cheer for the local team. Just as I did in MLB when my Cardinals didn't make the playoffs, I cheered for the Dodgers.
I watched much of that game last night and despite having Paul and Griffin, they seem to go whatever direction that Reddick is going.

| Watching Blake, and to a lesser extent CP3, flop drives me crazy. I hate the Clips, too, because of them. |

I'd rank Golden State #1 right now. I think the Clippers are #2. If the Warriors lose to the Lakers this week however I might change my mind.
The Clippers struggled against the Kings and Bulls and the Warriors are on a roll so I think Golden State will pass them in the standings soon. |

I'm numb to Lebron winning. I'd definitely root for the cavs.

The Clippers remind me a little of the Lakers of the late 90s. They have star talent, they thrive in an up-tempo game, they look dominant at times in the regular season and early in the playoffs and a bunch of people will start jumping on their bandwagon. But the lack the right mental qualities to go deep enough in the playoffs to have a real shot at the championship.
I've always liked CP3, but Blake Griffin is a passive aggressive douche who can dish it out but not take it himself.

| Warriors are rolling right now. Guess Clippers will have to settle for 2nd place in the west. |

The Clippers are very well experienced at settling-for-less....!

Winning a chip for Cleveland after promising to do so while coming back from 3- 1 against record breaking 73 win team... yeah, LeBron isn't the villain anymore. |

Clippers as usual. Lost to the Pacers by 21 today. I think Clipper fans are in for another disappointing season.
I have them winning the division.

| I wish I could've gone to today's game but I was glad to see it on TV the Colts played the other day so there was more time to focus on this and well I didn't want to watch the Pats. |

thats debatable for me... lakers has always kept the celtics as a rival/goal... the quest to surpass them in championship count. adding more hardware to the celtic empire will only put more stress on Laker Brass to make the tough changes to catch up or pass the celtics in title count. I would prefer to see Jim and Jeanie Buss in the hot seat from angry fans than clipper fans celebrating a championship
when it comes to the clippers I don't want the clippers to win anything while they are in Los Angeles. they shouldn't have a name here or even have a chance to make a name in Los Angeles. As long as clipper players are in Los Angeles they shouldn't deserve any respect from Los Angeles fans. |

So you think they'll finish the season with a better record than the Warriors?

If the Clippers met the Celtics in the Finals I would have an absolute existential breakdown, the kind you don't come back from. |

The Clippers having to be called out by their coach for being arrogant and complacent 19 games into the season is the most Clipperiest thing ever.

Oh no doubt. Chris Paul is the prototypical triangle guard.
