Clippers are currently 8th in the West and only 4.5 games behind the 7th seed
Kahwi has managed to get the clippers to the 8th seed, prob no chance to get better but who knows. Only 4.5 games behind the Suns who are currently 7th.
‘Only”
What’s the Best of 2021 winner thing?
One of my posts got voted best post in 2021. It was my Giannis chick fil a video
gz
I said the same thing
4.5 with 17 to go is a lot
With the way Minnesota looks who knows lol
I’m itching to celebrate a play in victory rn
Fuck it, bring Pat back
Every Clippers win, and every Jazz loss saves the future 20 years of the NBA
Good thing the 76ers exist
Good think the pick is top 4 protected so that Sixers pick will be in the 12-18 spot, even if the Sixers pick has lottery luck
Their future is in a good spot. Got a bunch of young players around Garland and Mathurin. Kawhi is a great vet (along with Brook) to mentor them
Yanic showed a lot of promise too. If the Pacers pick falls to them, it would be a pretty impressive soft reboot.
If we get the Pacers pick, Frank is a HoF Clipper.
LFrank’s jersey is going into the rafters if the Clippers get the 5th overall pick
Batum is a great vet presence as well
Just don’t let him close out games
Idk but I thought Mathurin was a lot older as well
There’s 17 games left, so 4.5 is a sizable distance at this point in the season.
they might have a chance to upset Spurs, if Kawhi is healthy
Idk how… Wemby would destroy us inside. We only have Brook; Yanic is out for the season
Yeah we’d get massacred. I actually think we’d do better against the Thunder. Rather take my chances with Chet than Wemby.
Thunder are pretty beat up. Hope Shai’s got a strong back
Barring any injuries to them OKC is safe to make the finals again tbh
They’ve been injured all season lol
yeah, but those injuries feel more like bubble wrap.
aside from jdub’s wrist and hammy, it seems like they’re sitting a lot of players with minor injuries to give the bench meaningful, competitive minutes..
this began during the internet meltdown over how “boring” it is to witness the thunder’s dominance.
the deathstar is fully functional.
Yeah but you guys just traded for known paint protector DG.
He ain’t no Trae Young.
If they could just watch that first half of the last game with them when they were up 20 and burn the 2nd half they would have a shot
Spurs first round, a fraud team like the Lakers, Wolves or Rockets in the 2nd round then a gassed OKC in the WCF who will be on a championship hangover and have all the pressure in the world on their shoulders to not get upset by the team they supposedly fleeced and Shai trying not to get outplayed by Kawhi
Then whoever comes out of the fraud East
The path is there for the Clippers to win it all
damn. the hell is this hopium
I’m 📸 this 😂😂
Lol
sure but the issue is they got no real 2nd star. this is a fairy tale dream but who knows. i think every top team has some issues realistically i would say okc vs nuggets conf finals which is prob gonna be the most hype but anything can happen in the west.
Did Darius Garland die?
Yes
Ty Lue is an elite coach but people dont give him any credit cause he coached Lebron
Our own fans don’t give Ty Lue credit lmfao
He led a team with a big 3 of Luke Kennard, Reggie Jackson, and Marcus Morris to an above .500 record in the west the year Kawhi and PG were both hurt, and people still claim hes a bad coach.
Crazy stuff. Especially because the biggest criticism is he “doesnt play or develop our young players” ignoring the fact that the earliest we’ve picked in a draft in the past 5 years has been 30th overall
Basically what I’m saying is most basketball fans are idiots lol
What? He’s one of the most respected coaches in the league
Its the remove a cunt of a player in cp3 effect
That’s a strong lead, but regardless they’re 7 seed favorites for the play-in. Don’t think Phoenix wants to face a healthy Kawhi
The Clippers pose a threat to any of the potential teams to host that first play in game, which includes the Lakers
Prob too late to catch. Suns would need epic collapse and Clips go 15-2
but 7 and 8 face off in the play-in. they’re only one game apart
‘Only’
So paying a player under the table has a benefit… good to know.
That’s a lot of games this time of year, man.
Oh wow
Suns are 2 back from the 3 spot and even a die hard suns fan isn’t holding onto much hope for a 6 seed with only so many games left. Though the clips been playing great and Kawhi been lights out but yeah wouldn’t get your hopes too high. West is still tough
Two games back from the third seed with 17 left and still play all four teams currently 3-6, there is definite hope amongst Suns fans to pass one (or more) of them and avoid the play in (though a seventh place finish certainly won’t be surprising).
Yes plenty of suns fans, but not so many die hards. We know what happens when the hopium gets too high
lol, nonsense. If you don’t have any hope for making up two games against any one of four flawed teams, I don’t know what to tell you.
We’re literally the worst team to play in a single elimination game. Suns fans are shitting themselves. Comfortable lead all year only to shit the bed in a play in game against us for the 7th seed 😂
lol, we are no scared of you in the slightest.
Kawhi is gonna put Dillon Brooks in a blender
Still getting swept by thunder or nuggets in the first round lol
Nuggets? How tf are the Clippers going to play the Nuggets in round 1 lol
Spurs too
Nuggets basically have no chance at the second seed. They are 8 games back
Ok?
