    When you have Chris "60 games a season" Paul, you are going to win 40 games every season.

    They don't have to shut Harden down to suck.

    They have 5 legit NBA players on the roster , one of them is constantly injured … when they have all 5 healthy they are a bottom of the playoff bracket team , when the constantly injured is out , they are one of the worst teams in the league.

    CP3 is out for two months …. that's two months of being one of the leagues worst teams. By the time he gets back , your season is done , no sense bringing that gimpy hammy back until the start of next season. They aren't staying in the playoff chase with 4 NBA players and a buncha NBA-DL dudes.

    He’s under contract until 2020/2021. So only 2 seasons after this one. Would he be willing to punt a year of his prime. This guy barely wants to sit out games. He’d likely force a trade if they seriously considered trying to make him sit a year uninjured imho

    This season is one of the rare times that a cursed team can actually still be in the thick of things. It would be stupid to just give up.

    8 out of 9, #1 offense in the NBA, #3 defense over the last 25 games. TheRealist137 your thread and your first sentence in it should go down in Clutchfans history.

    I can't wait to bump this thread repeatedly as the team begins its championship run.

    One of the best reverse jinx threads though if you look closely.

    Some OPs just got the magic.

    I hope they keep this up … I sure didn't see it coming the way they were playing earlier in the season. Harden's been Superman over this stretch of games but for them to win , he's gotta put up those kinda stats.

    Lot of season left ...
