He is the biggest reason UNC went from a 1 seed in the tournament last year to a under .500 team this year that won't sniff any tournament. Such a stud. Shot 46% from 3 last year.
That 11th overall pick in the draft has paid dividends in recent years. Sabonis, Myles Turner, Gilgous-Alexander and now Johnson. Still has to come along defensively, but he looks legit
Knock down shooter with surprising athleticism..makes me miss Svi But yeah, Sarver will figure out a way to fuck it up
so is Dwights nickname scavenger? if its not it should be! Worthy just said it but thats the first i heard it
I’d gladly settle for 2nd in the West if they can show consistency in beating the top 5 teams in the NBA. They have lost to Houston, Clips twice, Bucks, Celtics, Toronto, and Philly.....they are having a tough time winning against these teams.
Clippers have like a 2-7 record against Houston, Bucks, Denver, Utah, etc. They can't get caught up in targeting team over an 82 games season. These records create illusions. Teams coming off back to backs, 3 games in 5 nights, crazy travel, watered down last minute game planning, etc. Playoffs are truly different. Don't want to say that the reg-season is " exhibition season ", but it's not close to playoff basketball.
Down goes Lillard. Groin injury. Guess that'll cool his ass off. Booker taking his spot on the all star team
Clips lose, again. Paul George hurt, again. Lakers 5 games ahead of the Clips in the loss column....again. Utah on a 4 game winning streak, tied with the Clips in the loss column for the 3-seed. A 1st round 4/5 seed matchup of Clips VS Rockets?
I'm pretty confident. With Kawhi's load management + PG's injuries/inconsistencies, the Lakers would have to play like dog shit to give up the lead to them. Not worried about Denver....they'll have enough Ls. Clippers/Rockets round 1 would be awesome. Nightmare scenario for the Clippers imo. No way they'd get out of that easily.
