Lakers missing various members, but still not losing a lot of ground.

Clippers getting torched by the Pels.

Ingram's midrange has been fire this year.

4-7 in their last 11 games with complete lineup. Flipers is already on playoffs mode specially PG13.

A complete and healthy Lakers will be torch if they have a record of 4-7 in their last 11 ganes.

This weakass flippers thought that it is already playoffs. Too early for choke jobs.

Not only are they getting crushed by New Orleans, but Serge Ibaka left the game with a back injury. Tightness is what they're calling it.

The Clips aren’t what some idiot fans think they are. Pretty much running full strength for a while and still losing games. The Lakers lose games with no Davis, or Davis and Schroder, or Davis, Schroder, Gasol etc, and it’s the end of the world around here.

Lakers are doing just fine. Meanwhile, Clips and their fans can continue to suck it!!

Clippers remind me of the 2000’s blazers in a way. Deep teams with a lot of talent but I don’t know if mentally they can win it all. Other than KL idk if there’s a guy on that team I trust in the playoffs. I just think mentally they will shrink again

Haven't been following the Clippers much except checking their scores and standings etc..

But if we use the same argument we do with our Lakers, perhaps they are just 'cruising' for these meaningless regular season games. Definitely not counting them out.

Kawhi says he's concerned about the Clippers' lack of consistency, noting that consistency is a mark of a great team.

The Clippers looked really solid up until that first loss to the Nets. Since then they've kinda sputtered their way through.

Coasting is what associated with Bron because he was known for that. Opposite that is PG13 and Lou Will who are known to have a superb regular season to just choked during important stretches.

Lakers coming off a chip and little rest. They’ll get a pass for now. The Clippers haven’t proven or done anything to warrant then coasting.

Pels played flawlessly. They usually don’t, especially in fourth quarters. They have lost several so far this year by blowing leads. Still think they work their way into the playoffs and could be a tough out.

Williamson is pretty amazing. His explosiveness is impressive and fun to watch.

It was nice of them to put an L on the Clips though.

Clippers need Kyle Lowry but it’s gonna be tough without giving up a major piece, if the Clippers ride it out and hope everything clicks by the playoffs..it will be the final chance this Clippers team shows they can win the chip with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.

Williamson getting the ball at the top of the key to create has open up the game for him.

Just simply Beautiful to watch BI, Zo, and Zion take down them Clips with Kawhi and PG playing.

Kind of dwelling the day when they might catch us slippin for the first time

Ever since we got AD we never lost to BI and his Peli’s once.
Hate to be pessimistic but I’m not sure we’ll sweep them this season as well.

Them young bucks are always going to be out for blood against us lol

Waiting for roger Federer to come in with the excuses for the Clippers that he doesn’t seem to give the Lakers.

BI is currently the 3rd most efficient mid-range scorer in the league apparently.

If AD is healthy we should be able to beat them this year, but I think it's the last year unless we manage to bring in some third star to start taking over for LBJ. That team is only going to get better unless they do something stupid.

As it stands if the playoffs started to day it will be the CLips vs the Nuggets in the 1st round.
That would be a fun matchup for PG and the Clips.

Kawhi ain’t leaving San Diego if anything he’s shipping out PG. the clippers are a team that rely on their 3 point shooting but they don’t have the shooters to be consistently on fire from 3 point range. In the playoffs their lack of playmaker will be exposed and those open 3s they drain in regular season won’t be as open
