    I don’t want the Clippers to make the WCF. They’ve never once made the conference finals in their whole history. Once you lose that, you lose it forever.

    Damn, that’s a good point, now I’m conflicted. I want to play and beat them, but at the same time, the Clippers STILL not making it out of round 2 even after adding Kawhi and George would be hilarious, people would start to wonder if they’re actually cursed.

    Yeah I would love for them to flame out in the greatest hyped team choke job in a long time and definitely their own long history of “clipping”. And then we roll Denver who beat them. Ballmer with all his money. By the way he lured the best sportswriter in the business, Lee Jenkins away from SI to do exactly what? Disappear never to be heard from again .... for the freakin’ Clippers?

    No to mention that they'd have to blow a 3-1 series lead to do it.

    Clippers still have time to Clip, LOL. Not sure that choking gene is still there with Kawhi on board though. We'll see today. I'm expecting the Paper Clips to advance but honestly at this point I don't care who we face. I'm so stoked that we are back in the Western Conference. I'm just letting that sink in!! It's just an incredible feeling. I'm good with whoever we face from this point on. I think we got this. And just to be in this position again, I'm feeling so thankful to the Lakers players, coaching staff and FO for bringing this all back.

    Never thought I'd type these words, and it feels a little dirty, but... I think I like Kendric Perkins's commentary and analysis.

    He's pretty spot on on his Lakers takes IMO, and said everything we've been saying about Damnphony needs to be fired because his brand of basketball doesn't work.

    In general he sounds like he's giving his real opinion, and not following the media bias, and his insight is surprisingly good. I appreciate that.

    They're up 68 - 55 with 9:00 left in the 3rd quarter. Nuggets have them right where they want them. :D

    So... is this the team we are supposed to fear? Lou shoots bricks, Pat Bev fouls like a madman, they lose more 20 point leads than any other team in the playoffs... Kawhi is unable to carry them...

    ...this team is supposed to beat hungry LeBron?!

    They don’t even deserve to face us in the WCF. I’d rather face Jokic, a legit top 8-9 player in the league, who is having a monster game today. He has an entertaining personality too.

    Kawhi doesn't look like Kawhi today. Calcifying already?

    Next time someone tells me how Kawhi is better than Bron, I will know it’s a troll. He got outplayed by Doncic, now he is getting outhustled by the Serbian Joker. Who, by the way, is demolishing them on his own.
