Clippers: Can the Clippers beat the Heat?

[StrengthAndHonor]

Hold on a sec. I know most of y'all are trolling but seriously, the West is wide open this year and I don't see any team out there being better than the Clippers.

Spurs, older, Duncan will not duplicate his last season success.
GSW, solid, losing JJ who was huge for them btw will hurt. I love their potential though but not yet.
Memphis- Zbo
Rockets- Pretty good team, but I'm iffy with their chemistry. It will take another year before they really start playing into each others strength and work on their own weaknesses.
OKC, weaker this year. yeah, i'm sure Lamb will fill in just fine. Presti.

Out of all these teams, the Clippers has the deepest bench and the best player (when healthy). Doc is an upgrade and we now have a lethal shooter in place. I'm expecting huge strides from Blake Griffin next season. All these things combined are what makes them deadlier next year, I can go with useless analysis but the long short of it is that. 60 win season is on order.


No other team in History (modern) has won a 3 Peat in 4 straight Finals appearances. I believe complacency and the fatigue of going deep in the post season will be Miami's only weakness next year. I'm liking our chances now.

I can understand the complacency and fatigue take but how exactly will the Clippers beat Miami? Do they have matchups that can exploit Miami's current weaknesses? You don't think Lebron will shut CP3 down when he gets the assignment?

You know what, tbh, other than the complacency and fatigue take, I don't have anything . That's just the damn truth, Miami is too freaking good with Lebron, the league tbh are just banking on an injury or Miami taking a year off.

at the Clippers. What 2nd star player do they have? Blake Griffin will be worthless late in games in the postseason. The other moves they made were for role players, big ing deal. Doc Rivers, who gets praised as a great coach thanks to Thibs, isn't going to change these fatal flaws.

What the are you talking about? If the clippers meet the spurs again it's another sweep and while Zbo underperformed against the spurs, he still bullied and completely dominated Griffin.

Every season clipperfan brags about their deep bench and they're always a non-factor come playoff time. If KG joined the clippers, you could have a solid shot at the Finals imo. As currently constructed, it's a 2nd round ceiling.

You gotta be seriously delusional if you think you can go from a 2nd round sweep and a 1st round backdoor sweep to the Finals just because the clippers acquired a couple of shooters and Doc Rivers.

try not to be a homer to your own team. Durant > CP3 any day of the year.
