Doubtful


Not really doubtful actually. I’m watching the Warriors now and they look worse than I expected.

The Clippers also seem like the best team in the league right now.

The 2018-19 Nets that Russell played with last season probably was a better team than the current Warriors without Curry.

The Nets were 42-40 last season.

How much of a beatdown is this if the Clippers have Paul George?

Harden and Pat Beverley are prob the 2 most unlikable players in the game for me rn. Name a more 'hate-able' pair of dbags.

I think Pat Bev is the guy you hate when he's not on your team, but love him to death if he was.

Gonna be a role reversal for the Clippers and Warriors this season. Clippers will probably dominate them.

#2 closes out the Warriors at Oracle to get the ring and 4 months later he's back with a blowout at Chase Center's opener.

The Clippers beat the Warriors 141-122 to spoil Golden State's debut at the Chase Center. It's the most points the Warriors have allowed under Steve Kerr (regular season & playoffs) and the most points any team has ever allowed in its 1st game at a new arena (h/t @EliasSports).

“This is not a one off. This is the reality. There are going to be nights like this, this year,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said.

Draymond Green finished the game minus-35. That’s the worst plus-minus rating of his 534-game NBA career.

Yup. Clippers are looking like a 65 win team.

Clippers don't really have a weakness in the modern NBA. If healthy, they will be the team to beat.

Draymond is a complete idiot for telling him to leave. There were so many moments yesterday when I was thinking Durant would make a big shot there in the past. Instead Curry and Russell were mostly off and nobody else could create their own shot.

"Y'all a little different without KD, I see," he said. "Uh-huh, y'all cheated long enough. It's OK. Y'all had a good run. Back to reality."

KP looks healthy and got thicker, and the Mavs are 2-0. Whenever I feel bad about the young kids we threw away such as Thomas Bryant, Zubac, etc. all in the name of Lance, Beasely... I just think of the Knicks and I feel a little better. I mean jeez, they traded a cornerstone guy in KP for a CHANCE at KD and Kyrie. KP to Mavs kinda reminds me of Pau to Lakers in 2008. So weird the Knicks didn't put him up for bidding, and did a trade so secretly and so fast.
