    Thunder - I don't think the Refs allow them to go out in the 1st round + Harden Hatred by Refs
    Nuggets - I don't think the Refs allow them to go out in the 1st round + Harden Hatred by Refs
    Lakers - I don't think the Refs allow them to go out in the 1st round + Harden Hatred by Refs
    Warriors - I don't think the Refs allow them to go out in the 1st round + Harden Hatred by Refs
    Grizzlies - No way they play this team in the 1st round but Clipper could win here
    Wolves - No way they play this team in the 1st round but Clipper could win here

    I am still of the mind that the NBA is about narrative

    Clippers just aren't the second round draw
    I think they have a chance against us . . .. but again its all about the REFS

    Remove the Refs from the equation
    Remove the Narrative

    James and Kawhi versus:
    Shai and Chet - This should be closer but the supporting cast of OKC >> Supporting cast of Clipper
    Luka and LeBron - This one SHOULD be a 50/50 IM cause I think the Clipper support is better
    Steph Draymon and Jimmy - Same with the Lakers
    Nuggest - Same with the OKC - they have the better supporting cast

    Zubac confirming what we already knew. James the locker room killer strikes again.

    When it comes to allowing himself to be held accountable in the locker room, leaving Houston has been very beneficial to James Harden.

    I remain very glad he has not returned.

    Harden is a nobody now. The NBA no longer cares. Besides, he finds a way to implode all by himself in the playoffs.

    I have come around on Harden a little, a lot of those people moved on to Jalen Green.

    If the Clippers get out of the 1st round
    They should consider their season a success

    Knocking out the #3 Lakers would be too too sweet

    Their season has already been a MASSIVE success. Almost nobody picked them to be this good. Many people had them as a boarder line 500 team.

    There is still a ton of salty ass people I see in this thread when it comes to Harden too. It’s pretty pretty weird considering how great The Rockets are too. It’s like they can’t quit the ex.

    That is what the PG13 and Kawhi teams should have looked like to be honest........

    I had kept up with a few Philly Podcast
    I don't think Morey can walk the streets of Philly without armed guards

    That team is a d*mn dumpster fire
    They were before he got there but Embiid's injuries have made it soooo much worse
    I have no analytics but i would have NEVER paid PG13
    esp over Harden
    Their fans are a bit impatient . . .. the Process was a complete bust so they are done with waiting
    (which IMO makes them fleecable)

    We can't pretend this isn't happening. It is. The road to the finals is littered with superstars. The playoffs are no joke now that they have arrived. And the Clipper have a legitimate claim to the throne.

    Just a casual TD from a washed fat 35 year old 17 year vet.
