Clippers finally having their day. Good for them. George, Kawhi, Bev, Harrell, Lou. Sounds like they’ll have the championship party at Dave n Busters.
the clippers are attractive because they have the most passionate owner in the NBA the clippers are attractive because they have jerry west, the man that build the lakers and warriors dynasties, consulting their roster moves. the clippers are attractive because they have a championship coach. the clippers are attractive because they made the playoffs in LA. Yes the former rockets had something to do with making the playoffs, but with Balmer, west, and rivers running the show they would've made the playoffs with other players if need be. if you think they got kawhi because he wants to play with Beverley, Lou, and Harrell you're just wrong. he wouldn't even commit to going there without PG. he went because they have the owner, the dynasty builder, a championship coach, and they are in LA. if we kept Bev, Lou, Harrell, we don't win 65 games two years ago and we don't play the warriors as close as anyone has (raptors beat steph, we almost beat all of them fully healthy). there is still no reason for kawhi to come here because we're not LA, same for George, same for lebron, same for AD. we don't have a passionate owner like Balmer. I love morey, but he's no jerry west. we don't have a championship coach. there is no reason to think we are more attractive than the clippers weather we made the CP3 trade or not lol.
We were one hamstring away from a championship against a full force GSW... it was a good trade. Hypothetically, if you told me that one year you WILL win a championship but its dependent on CP3 staying healthy in the playoffs, I would take it.
Not only are they in LA, they have probably the wealthiest owner in the NBA. These people are ridiculous. Morey can't do anything about the fact that NBA players prefer the Los Angeles and Miami lifestyle to Houston.
Yep, but they sure didn't know this was coming, would do it all again if that hammy wouldn't have popped for 1 chip!
PG is the reason Leonard is going there, not Bev and Harrell. Draft picks were really important as trade assets to outbid Toronto for PG and their trade of Griffin and Harris played a bigger role in getting there
You guys are killing me with these excuses lol. The Clippers have 3 players that was or can be on the all nba defensive 1st team. The Rockets have 1. The Clippers are going to be defensively what the Warriors were on offense the past couple of years. They will hold teams to 79 pts. Lol. Sorry good guys, better luck next year.
i'm not saying being in LA didn't help, I already called LA see my (players to LA) thread I'm saying they aren't the lakers with their bench, they had an attractive core to present in those meetings! Westland doc set things up nicely
Another solid contender out West Time to admit that Morey and Harden are just not getting it done in attracting talent here either via trade or free agency And before you bring up the CP3 contract as an excuse, remember it was Morey who handed it out to him
