They're 6-7 because Frauden is already in playoff form and they have zero bigs on their roster now. But of course Media will blame it all on Westbrook.

Exactly. At this point the additional 10-15 wins they will get this year is going to kill their draft choice. Pop knows that and tanked to get Duncan so I expect him to sit both those guys in the second half.

I'd say Trez is like Kevin Love, but at least Love would pad his rebounds too, not just his points. I have a feeling that we'll sign-and-trade him this offseason. Lou is just too old to do what he used to do on offense, he shouldn't be playing as many minutes as he does and really shouldn't be starting when Beverley is out.

Even if Clippers win a championship this season which I'm starting to think it won't happen, Lou and Trezz have to go.

Lou is god awful on defense and not a good point guard at all.

Trezz is a fucking midget that can't defend the paint, can't rebound and sets non-existent screens for everyone.

If Clippers go to the finals they're either facing the 76ers or the Bucks. There is no way Trezz will be able to defend Embiid or Giannis in those series.

If Clipps FO don't get a center in the buyout market, we are absolutely fucked against those teams. I'm hoping Tristan Thompson changes his mind and goes for the buyout. We really need another big body to stop them.

Having a guy like Marcus Smart replacing Lou would be amazing though

You guys might have a Playoff P problem too. From one of your fellow Clippa fans:
https://twitter.com/joeylinn_/status/1227424528264904709?s=19

Obviously you guys are strong contenders, but I'm seeing shades of PG vs Daddy Ingles when y'all play contenders (playoff atmosphere). Maybe his hammy not 100%? Those injuries can be tricky. I think Somali out too with a hammy (?). Hammy injuries to two of your top 8 players could be a problem down the stretch and playoffs tbh.

Yeah, I'm seeing this too. I waited for the trade deadline to pass to see if they traded a Harrell package to upgrade at center. Myles Turner was my pick. I like Zubac's development but he's a year 4 player who has never gotten past the first round. Too much pressure & expectation on him to make the right series of decisions in a finals environment. And besides, who would count 2 years in the Lakers program as legit development? Zubac is really at year 2.

Well the deadline passed, Harrell and Lou are still rotation players, and no playoff-caliber anchor was had. There's 28 games left and the Clippers as a team still haven't adopted Kawhi's basketball identity of the two-way player who's always in control of the game's tempo. I'm giving them until the first round. If they don't fall in line behind Kawhi, like the Raptors eventually found out they needed to, I'm putting a lot of money on the Bucks to win it all.

Baynes is also a good buyout candidate.

That’s exactly why players like him can’t deliver down the stretch consistently. They rely on mainly their talent. It’s why Bron, as great as he is, has a reputation of struggling in crunch time. Without a go-to move, you hesitate and second guess any move. With a go-to move, that’s your starting point and what you’re trying to get to because your extremely confident in it, then you adjust based on what the defense does.

NBA last few years, yes it’s continuation. This year though, they’ve been calling it on the floor 9/10 times. If you watch it in slow mo, he grabs him really fast. Then after Williams feels it, he goes into the shooting motion.

And Foster didn’t waive it off, it was the other black ref on the same side of the floor.

The thing I hate about this new way they call it, at any moment in a big playoff game, they refs can just decide to call it the other to completely change the outcome of a game.

Nothing to celebrate. Clippers are good, Kiwi is great but not some unbeatable force, when his primary support is playoff pee and sometimesy Lou Will....
These teams may not even meet in the WCF like I said one of them gonna get upset.

But this fagget is always bashing players how soft and lazy and weak they are? Lmao . I forgot what game it was I think Kenny said “ lakers gassed out “ and Charles was saying how championships contenders should have that extra push or switch like wtf lmao.

The issue with the clippers is the minutes disturbition I think. Harrel literally played 30 fuckin minutes straight. Why give Zubac a fucken raise and not play him?. Zubac is more than capable of going at Theis from Boston. If clippers are healthy come playoff time and doc stops sucking Lou and Harrell dick this team will most likely be in the finals. But I’m hoping doc keeps being stubborn for our sake lmao

Not being a Kwa apologist as Tatum outplayed him in the stretch. But key back to back plays came at 130-130 2nd OT.
Kwa brought it upcourt and pulled up for a 25 footer. Tatum did the Heil Hitler salute defense and hit Kwa right after realease. Normally I'm not big on calling a foul when players hands lightly "clap" after a shot. But this was too close, like a millisecond after he shot. It was a foul. So back we go the other way Clipps on D. Somebody knocks the ball loose from the driver and it's going to go out of bounds. Kwa did a nifty Klaw retrieval as the ball was out of bounds and did a behind-the-back lob to get the ball cleanly back inbounds. Both Morris and Shamet failed to get into position to receive Kwas throwback so it rolled quite a ways to a Celtic for the lucky non turnover then scored layup.

GNob would have anticipated that save pass by Kawhi. Indeed while all NBA players should have seen it coming, it is only the higher BBIQ players that would gotten in position to catch the save.

I suck at capturing replays or I'd post it.

But ya Kawhi was not impressive that game. Too many Kombe type chucks.
Doc retarded? Ya. How did he win that 2015 playoff series? Oh ya the other coach. :lol

Fella's nobody is going to spontaneously combust by saying that the Clippers have been kind of disappointing and have flaws. All the NBA teams are flawed. Their defense is a train wreck. They have players who are adept at getting their own shot but not so much for others. Even Kawhi struggled against the double team. The offense. No big deal. The defense isn't going to get fixed because somebody says "playoffs". This is Kawhi's 9th season. He has two titles. The teams he plays on are not omnipotent. The Clippers aren't the Jordan era Bulls, recent Warriors or Showtime Lakers bored with the regular season. They still cover banners with pictures. Paul George is making Bill Walton seem like A.C Green in comparison.

If you're "anybody but the Lakers" there's still plenty of hope in Denver, Houston and Utah. Because if things continue as they have there isn't going to be ESPN/ABC/TNT orgasmic fantasy of a Clippers/Lakers final. Those teams finish outside the top 2 seeds and have to beat the Nuggets, Rockets or Jazz without home-court and advance to play an even higher seed...........

These games count no matter how hard some try to convince themselves otherwise. Nobody outside of Golden State and the Spurs have won jack excrement since Kobe led Lakers were at their peak. These teams are no sure thing to even come out of the West. And right now, with apologies to Skip Bayless, Colin Cowherd and bunch of others whose opinion means nothing except for the amount of "hits" they get from clueless Laker fans and haters rising to the bait, its less likely to be the Clippers.

By the way. The "Toronto Miracle" looks less so now. Not sure the Raptors didn't provide Kawhi with a better coach and supporting cast than he has now. Back to the denialfest.

2 OT on the road against a good team when you're down two starters isn't that bad, tbh. Minnesota was the only egregious loss on this road trip, honestly.

That being said, we aren't sniffing a championship unless Doc either improves or gets fired. Currently, he has Tom Thibodeau's rotations and Mark Jackson's offense. Trez should never be playing so many minutes in a row. You could tell he was gassed in OT. Doc is just biased against Zubac for some bizarre reason - even though Zubac defends, rebounds, and has good chemistry with Kawhi in the pick-and-roll. McGruder should be out of the rotation entirely, Amir Coffey is already better than him. Lou actually played like 2018/2019 Lou against the Celtics, but he's been looking more like Playoff Jamal all season and Doc gives him superstar minutes. These are simple things that even fans can see but Doc can't.

While old-ass Lebron and soft ass Anthony Davis play their hearts out against below .500 teams every night.

I'd rather the Lakers beat them in the playoffs, but let's not pretend like they actually have a shot:lol

:lol at you farmers thinking 2020 Kawhi is the same version as 2017. I don't know if that dude still exists other than in spurts.

He played 46 minutes last night. Chucked up 27 shots (made only 10). Yeah, he tried to win.

Even Sweet Lou chucked up 33 shots. 60 shots between them...and they still lost.

Biggest loss? Palmdale P. Hammies are tricky. Can they survive without him, still load manage Kiwi, and still maintain HCA for the playoffs? Time will tell.

And before you say HCA don't matter, the Clipps are 15-13 on the road (basically 0.500 team away from Staples). They are also 14-11 vs teams > 0.500.

Then they downgraded (defensively) going from Harkless to Morris. Tatum went off last night was no coincidence.

But yeah, keep your faith in Croc Rivers. He was able to get Lob City out of the 1st round a few times. Maybe he'll do that with this group too :lol

The Clippers have such a depth of talent/matchup advantage over the Lakers that barring significant injury, I still think they at least get to the Finals, but I give the Lakers a puncher's chance because of the presence of 2 top 5 players, better chemistry and due to the age of a bunch of them, increased desperation/urgency.

Nonsense. It's gonna boil down to the stars, not the scrubs. And for as much as AD has been clowned for being injury prone, what about Kiwi? He's missed more games than AD not only this year, but the last couple of years:

2016 KL - (10) AD - (21)
2017 KL - (8) AD - (7)
2018 KL - (73) AD - (7)
2019 KL - (22) AD - (26)
2020 KL - (13) AD - (7)

Last year is misleading because Nawlins held him out of games because they were butthurt. Fact: KL is more injury prone. AD doesn't load manage, but KL does.

And now PG is hurt too. Based on this year, him and Kawhi are injury prone. AD and LBJ are more healthy.

101-94 after 4 pt play by Van Fleet. 2:22 game time left.
OG steals the inbounds pass and incredibly the Raps can close to -5 or -4. (Had been down 15 just several minutes earlier.)

Van Fleet gets the pass with 19 seconds on the shot clock and horks up a 32 footer brick.

What in the H shot selection was that?

The league already addressed this before the season. Kawhi and other players with degenerative injuries can be rested. Giving D'Angelo Russell a game off for "planned rest" when he's healthy is against the rules, though.

Is he? They look as identical as players as they do twins. One scored more points on a horrible team. Karl Kuzma did that last year, especially post Lebron and Ingram injuries, which is why so many people mined the pyrite. Markief played on a team with Drummond and Rose. His stats were what good pedestrian players usually put up when there are better veteran players on hand. He'll help. He isn't going to put the Lakers over top. Neither would Waiters. Marcus and Reggie Jackson won't do it for the Clippers either. They all could contribute.

What interests me is what would the narrative have been like if the Lakers had traded Kuzma and Danny Green for Marcus Morris. Then DG ends up with the Mavs (that was the evil plan) during the playoffs. The Clippers meanwhile get Reggie Jackson and Markief Morris on buyouts. Lot's of "playing chess while Pelinka is playing checkers" references I'm sure. Caldwell-Pope is the Lakers most reliable scorer, especially when it really counts, after Lebron and AD. That's frightening. The others are bricking up wide open looks at key moments. Including Danny Green. Maybe Morris and (gag) Waiters can help there. They are fine defensively.

Great post. Agreed 100%.

The things I like about Kief are as follows:

1) Good 3ball shooter
2) Physical, ready to mix it up
3) Allows Kuz to play his natural SF spot
4) Can play small ball 5

He's gonna help but no way am I depending on a buyout player putting us over the top. I like the addition tho. :tu

Small sample size, but he helps balance the Lakers. My hopes:

1) He can play small ball 5. I'd like to reduce McGee's minutes as much as possible

2) Hit his open 3s at a > 40% clip

3) Play good hard nosed defense

4) Add the toughness the Lakers need (despite their size)

5) Play well next to AD and D39 (our two best defensive bigs)

If these things happen, the Lakers will take the next step.

im not a big giannis fan myself, but this is absolutely incorrect

he shoots 76% on 0-3 foot shots, but he doesn't take 76% of his shots from there. this season hes taken 48% of his shots from there (down from 50% for his career)

about 16% of his shot attempts are dunk attempts. so he can definitely do far more than dunk.

and as for being assisted on 43% of those shots, whats so bad about that? Shaq for his career had 60% of his 2-pt shots assisted on. he SHOULD be having a lot of his shots be assisted. thats literally one of his main jobs as a big man, is to finish off plays that guards create.

The type of player Harden was mocking is actually more of the Capella/Gobert type, tbh. The league has never seen anyone like Giannis, and he can do much more than just run and dunk. His 1 on 1 game is still developing and nowhere near Harden's level, but very few bigs in history were also great iso scorers (Dirk, Hakeem, and Timmy come to mind).

Also, taking a majority of your shots at the basket is SMART. Giannis doesn't have Shaq's size or post game, but he has the handles, footwork, and strength to get those easy shots for himself.
