I think the only time I saw the Clippers being legit was in Love & Basketball.

On one hand, it's pathetic to keep losing to a 267 year old Joe Johnson.

On another, getting beat by fiddy, four games straight, by the Warriors is about as attractive as eating jello out of Star Jones belly button.

You know it's bad when losing doesn't even hurt anymore.
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I don't know which is funnier, the 267 year old Joe Johnson or the Star Jones analogy!

They don't need a super star. They have 3 max players on the roster, two of which (Blake and DJ) that really don't fit together. Doc has neglected the wing position his entire time while with the Clips. They don't need a super star at the position, they need a quality veteran (someone around Trevor Ariza's skill set). Their bench, once again outside of Crawford is a joke, even though many thought that it was significantly upgraded.

I called this from day 1. Although I just thought they wouldn't get past the 2nd round again, I didn't think they'd get knocked out of the 1st.

They need to trade one of their core pieces of their big 3 - which I'd look at Blake.
Well me & only 1 other poster said they wouldn't get past the Jazz. And when Gobert went down & the Clips couldn't capitalize on that I realized it was even worse than I thought.

They're talking about the Clips and the contract situations they're going to have to manage through this summer. They said that Balmer's going to go well into the luxury tax and that they'll be the first team to hit the repeater tax which incurs heavy tax penalties.

If they do... I'll lose any hope I'm clinging onto of the Jazz putting up a fight against the Warriors.

Not because they couldn't still win the series, but because they should be able to close this out if they're as good as they seem to be.

The Jazz are definitely the better match up against the Warriors - but the way the Dubs have been playing as of late I don't think the Jazz can win 4 of 7 against them either.

They way the Dubs are playing I'll be surprised if the Jazz can win a game or 2.

I would be surprised if they win 2 or more. But not necessarily if they win 1.

Dubs were using cheat codes vs. the Blazers. Jazz better hope they forget them and didn't write them down. lol

I just saw the Warriors notes about practice and it said Shaun Livingston and Matt Barnes practiced in full today.

Totally forgot that in addition to KD missing two of the 4 games, Livingston missed 3 and Barnes was out the whole series.

back atcha! I was wanting to catch up with you last summer when I was in LA. I'm going to be in San Diego this summer, hoping maybe we can finally meet & grab dinner or something. Think about it!
