Man Im not worried about Clips.
They are good and they may be better than us ... i just want elite basketball.
IF come playoffs we are playing well and they are as well i like our chances ...

1. LeBron will step up
2. Playoff basketball slows down ...
3. Although they do alllow more contact which benefits Pat bev types ... it also favors "superstars" and we have two I think PG is very good but I dont see him as a superstar.

But none of this matters if we are injured (Ad already got an achy shoulder) or if we dont smooth out our offense ...and pnr coverages on defense.

You left out the biggest weakness of the clippers. Doc rivers.

1) The Celtics we’re loaded
2) the Celtics won with defense and it was thibbs

Boiled down: Vogel >>> Luke

Time for Vogel to start Dwert with AD. Small sample, but their defensive rating as a tandem is off the chain

I'm convinced teams exploit Javelle McGee on a nightly basis, leading to early deficits. The only time they couldn't overcome one was opening night vs the Clipps.

So far so good. A thread

Man I like this a lot. Reminds me of how no one wanted to go in the lane vs the Admiral and Jim back in 1999. Teams gonna have to beat us mostly from perimeter. We don't have to worry about the Splash Brothers (this year). How many teams can really stroke it from downtown?

Knowing this, Vogel is starting AB with DG in the backcourt. They are both strong 3&D players. Not quite lock down, but they contest well in space. Should a player get by them, Dwert and AD will be waiting at the rim. I even saw the Kang playing defense this year - taking charges, etc.

We still need a big wing defender (Iggy?) to make our defense really take a leap. Iggy was "live tweeting" the Laker-Mav game, Pelinka is his former agent, and he's good friends with the Kang and AD - so I know he wants to play for the Lakers. Hope it happens.

lakers sucking on dwert's ... oh boy

[LkrFan]

Big win vs the Spurs on the road. Were up 19 points at one point but couldn't put them away due to stupid turnovers and fouls. 5 straight wins tho:

The new KD is "King Dwert"

[spurraider21]

dwert looks really good having accepted his role tbh... he should be starting over javale

Andre pulling a Roger Clemens and waiting to sign with LA. He’s saving his body for the playoffs.

I'd be down wit dat

There is a number of playoff teams who would be interested in Andre. There’s going to be compe ion for him, some teams will offer a pick.

^^^ On the flip side, if teams know in advance that Andre wants to play for the Lakers, then why would anybody give up a pick to trade for a disgruntled player. So, there actually may be a good chance he signs with us.

Precisely why AD is not a Celtic

This brings purple and gold tears to my eyes
