Haven't seen him forever, still injured??? And Clippers are good now they will be great when he is back.
Still injured. He's their second leading scorer. Yes, the Clippers are for real this time. They will make the playoffs and might even make some noise in the first round. The way the seeding is set up, it is very important to win the division. If the Clippers beat out the Suns for the Pacific title, they will be the #2 seed and face one of the bubble teams. If they don't win the division, they will wind up being #5 and will face either the Spurs or the Mavs. Same thing with the Spurs and the Mavs. Whoever wins the division will face the worst team in the playoffs. Whoever ends up second will face either the Suns or the Clippers. The seeding format sucks!
I hate the new seeding format why even have it? does anyone remember what the NBA was smoking when they came out with this crap? J
Yeah, if the Rockets make the playoffs, we'll be one of the hottest teams. But that is not the seeding format's problem. But back to the topic. I am rooting for the Clippers as my second favorite team. If not for anything, I just enjoy seeing the Lakers become "the other team" in LA. But that team has some players I really like. Cassell and Mobley: the old and young former-Rockets backcourt tandem Livingston: this kid can really pass, in the same class of Magic, Stockton, and Kidd Brand: I want to see his "loser" label off his back Coach Dunleavy: a level headed class guy
They wanted more fans to think they had "division champions" or almost-champs each year and get more excited about their possibly mediocore squad. Evan
