Drake listening to Marvin's Room on repeat

Screw Drake - I hate that motherf**ker.

Hate is a strong word

NBA ship is going through LA (sans injury)

Looking forward to a Game 7 in LA early June 2020

West is stacked yet again. Bucks and 76ers look to be the Eastern conference's only hope this upcoming year.

Celtics too but yes, the West is head and shoulders above the East.

I read a report that Leonard's delay was so the Clippers could work out a deal but d never saw that coming.

Good luck scoring from the perimeter. Clips will have Beverely, George, Kawhi defending out there. Underrated part of this is how ridiculous that is. That's perhaps the three best perimeter defenders in the league and they'll all be in the same lineup.

It's very early but Clips rostr as good or better than GSW ever were in my opinion. The depth is crazy. Those three plus Harrell, Lou Williams, All-Rookie guy in Shamet, Zubac, and they'll probably get a decent player to sign there still.

This I agree with. They now have strength in numbers.

Kawhi is the hero that the NBA needs and the one it deserves. You win a ring with the Clippers, you're a damn legend forever.

Which is why I advocated for lebron signing with them last year. He could have been the one to bring a ring to the cavs and clippers but chose the dysfunctional lakers instead. What an idiot.

Kawhi never even considered the lakers lmao

He played y'all.

And the lakers organizations uses a lot of media propaganda to make it seem like all these players wanna sign with them.

I didn't really include the Celtics because some of their younger players took a step back last year. Some if not most of that could have been contributed to Kyrie just being a bad mesh for the team, but I want to see Tatum, Brown, Hayward get their mojo back before I'm ready to declare the Celtics as a true threat to win it all. I did like the addition of Kemba though.

You're talking about Magic being mouthy yet his actions have resulted in 5 chips. As an executive he's brought LA LeBron. So he's not a great NBA exec. You say he talks to much but with 5 chips and him being a billionaire essentially I'd say he can say and do pretty much what he wants. Dude is where Kawhi wants to get or any other player for that matter


As a player. Great player. Lousy executive. You citing his accomplishments as a player repeatedly is meaningless. That was a long time ago. He has done poorly at every other basketball position he's been involved in since.


The whole "Magic brought LA LeBron" talking point is so played out. LeBron was going to LA to retire and be around his son no matter what Magic did. Gumby could have been the GM and LeBron was still going to be a Laker.

Remember when the Laker fans thought they were getting Paul George

Thank god Kawhi didn't go the Lakers. Playing next to LeBron would've ruined any legacy he had, why would any star want to play for him anymore knowing they'll never get any credit for winning but all of the blame if they lose? LeBron may be one of the all time greats, but the NBA will be much better off when he retires
