    they're looking like the favorites lately. really annoyed that we're back in the situation where the clippers and C Bags have to be the gambling favorites for a ring.

    Nah, does anybody seriously expect:
    1. Kawhy to be healthy throughout the playoffs?
    2. The toiletteers to be contending without him?

    They may win a ton of games in the RS, but that's it.

    BTW, it's funny how Kawhy has been a lot healthier in the season he got his extension. Must be a coinsidence...

    Gilbert Arenas explains why teams find it easy to defend against the Lakers.

    "I asked Paul George , 'When you play against the Lakers , how easy is it to defend against them?' He replied: “Easy, damn easy, because the guy I'm guarding doesn't shoot at the basket. I become a defensive player, I come out as a backup.”

    This is exactly what I'm talking about. The Lakers only have two guys who can shoot. You need to focus all your attention on these guys. They are predictable. The hardest thing to defend is when you don't know what to expect,” former NBA player Gilbert Arenas said on his podcast

    Interesting take from Paul "career embarrassment and 0-2 against the Lakers this season" George.

    paul george can play basketball, but man, every time he opens his mouth i'm a bit surprised at how dumb he sounds.

    you know what's predictable? kawhi isos in the center of the court.

    anyway, glad for you that your owner can pay 40 million more in salary so that your role players can shoot while you're choking in the playoffs annually.

    i mean, he's the same guy who knocked up a stripper, tried to pay her 1 mil to get an abortion, and then ended up getting her pregnant again. so certainly he's not the brightest

    in an odd twist, the clippers' top 7 guys have all played like 90% of games so far. if anything, it's surprising their record isn't better?
