Capela is averaging just under 10 FGA's but it's crazy to think he should get 13-15.....SMH.

It snowed again on Friday night but melted away yesterday when the sun came out. 1 of these days it's going to stick to ground and I'm going to be like Jack Nicholson in The Shining. But, better looking.

meh. snow's fun at first, but becomes a pain in the ass later...

and then there's freezing rain. REAL fun stuff...

couldn't WAIT to get back to Cali....

honestly the better gauge of how the 2 of 'em will be mid-season. least that's what i'd say...

Which has been my point all along.

I've said that if this pairing works, it has the potential to be spectacular. In fact, they could possibly win the title if it works.

I've also said that I'm skeptical because they are both extremely ball dominant , have been playing that way for the majority of their careers and there is only 1 ball.

Because of that, I think they will finish about a 4-5 seed and make it no further than the 2nd round and maybe not past the first round.

I've also said that, it's not crazy to think they could miss the playoffs if things blow up bad enough, early enough.

I'd say we'll have a much better idea by about Christmas.

Whichever way it goes. It should be fun to watch.

It kinda is. Most of his attempts are likely put backs and dump offs. I doubt they're running many plays for him.

I'm not suggesting they run plays for him.....but if RW and Harden are being double teamed......throw the ball to him for an easy dunk or layup.....higher percentage play than a star being doubled.....that's all I'm saying.

Not at all. As you said he get put backs, dump offs, and probably some lobs.

They're not running a low post play for him at all

Usually if they're being double teamed, teams are not leaving someone open under the rim for a easy 2 points. They're usually leaving one of the perimeter players open daring them to hit a open 3.

So the Clippers lose to the Suns...

How about we all panic now?
Did you think they were going 82-0?

Clippers didn't lose to the Suns.

The Suns came out and took it.

That's exactly what the Clippers did to the Lakers.

Games aren't played on paper. The moment teams start believing the hype, this is the outcome.

Black ice is a bunch of bullshit.

Imagine my chagrin when I bought my first house in Victorville.

Snow?

In fucking SoCal?

Dafuq...lol

Brand new, 3500 square foot house for 175k.

I should have known...lol
