    If the Spurs get bounced by this Clipper team that's going to likely manipulate seeding to play them, I think that would speak volumes about our team than them..No matter how flawed we are; it shouldn't to get the point that a 63-65 win-team have zero fear factor about them..

    It's nothing new though. They had zero fear factor about them in '11, '15 (were dominant down the stretch of the regular season) and '16, despite dominant regular seasons.

    They had it from '12-'14 because of unprecedented team play/depth, but that was the exception to the rule. It generally comes from (super) star power. They have it in Leonard, but he's yet to have a dominant playoff run as the lead option and isn't the type that's liable to explode for 50 or make his teammates better through his play making. They also don't have a second player in his stratosphere.

    Not afraid tbh

    It's going to be just like Memphis a few years ago. We started to fear them after 2011, then SA figured them out and started to own them constantly, in the RS and in the playoffs. Just start Dedmon over Pau and the Spurs is fine agains them, as long as the key players show up

    Good luck to the Clips, it's their last hurray before they gut the roster and start again. Good luck running the floor with Whi, Dedmin and Simmiinds.

    Clippers fans on twitter have turned into Spurs cheerleaders...With how ty they are playing right now it would be absolutely hilarious if they get bounced in the first round before they even get to us..

    They are two games off the Jazz in the loss column and will play a desperate Grizzlies team tomorrow..

    They could fall to 6th, but Memphis is really struggling, too..they've had the worst defense in the NBA, the past few weeks..

    I would hope so..There are some ominous bad vibes around that Clipper team right now..CP3 hasn't looked that great Since ASB..Blake/DJ have been listless on defense..the bench has regressed to putrid after that fluke November..Austin Rivers has cooled off after looking like a legitimatey decent NBA starter in Paul absence..JJ Re has become more streakier ..

    I wouldn't rule out an implosion tbh..they are not winning B2B playoffs rounds without HCA if they don't turned around in last month of season..

    I think it's evident that they're tired of each other and Rivers IMO, it's been brewing for at least 2 seasons, according to reports..

    Their talent level is very overrated, too..outside of an aging Paul and Griffin, the rest of their team is unspectacular..Jordan hasn't been that good, this season(his All-Star selection was horrible) and the rest of their team is very inconsistent(most are capable of exploding, but no consistency)..

    Performance against other teams is irrelevant. Their confidence ups like 200% when they play the Spurs

    They won't even make the 2nd round if they don't get the 5 seed, tbh..they still match up really well vs. Utah, though..
