oh, I agree the lakers will win the series. Just saying it’s hard to say the competition isn’t challenging IMO, since many think the clippers are the best team in the league and Denver is on the verge of knocking em out

Would be even sweeter if LBJ loses another finals though, however likely it seems at the moment. I still think the Lakers are vastly overrated. They just aren't that good.

Oh, I already know what's happening.

LeBron is winning another ship.

Yeah, that's where I'd put my money.

Not only did they avoid facing their toughest competition in the West, they're going to avoid facing the toughest competition in the East. It'd be a miracle if they didn't win it all.

But with all these upsets, who knows?

theyre good enough to win a title. That’s pretty good. I’d love to see jimmy and the heat beat lebron in the finals, though

Maybe. People here just seem to think they are going to skate by. It's not going to be easy.

i agree. The nuggets will play them tough, as will Celtics/heat winner. But the lakers are absolutely the favorites now and it’s not even close

LeBron is in a position to win a title without facing a decent team

Paul George 10 points in 4/16.

Is it crazy to consider the Clippers look to make a change?

How the living hell do you lose to this Denver nugget team?

They won't make a change. Doc is a big reason why Kawhi signed with them.

They seem to be married to Doc, but man how many years can you go?

If they don't win it next year, Kawhi will likely leave (player option in the 3rd year), and I wouldn't be surprised if they cut ties with Doc then.

To be fair...that clippers team doesn’t have as much as people made it seem. You got Leonard, PG, and a 6th man scorer off the bench. Everyone else is pretty much average league player

Doc has had 8 seasons with Clippers(feels closer to 15).

Paul and Griffin
Now Kawhi and George-some considered favorite to win it all.

Has never even made the Conference finals.

How are they so in love with him?

I guess we can put this "Kawhi is the best player in the league" business away. I never understood that narrative. I don't like Lebron, but him and KD are the only two you can compare as best players in the league. I knew this Clippers team was overrated.

I am happy to see the Nuggets do well. Gives me hope that the Bulls got the right guy to turn the franchise around.

I thought Kawhi went to LAC simply to be in LA and close to home. So if he leaves, where is he going?

Now them cutting Doc, yeah, I could see that.
