Facts. Extremely top heavy team. Doc was the coach and GM at the time and pretty much put nothing around Blake, CP3, and DJ. Outside of Matt Barnes no wing players for years on those teamsAnyone that thought that CP/Griffin Clippers were contenders were smoking garbage reefer

I mean no one gives a shyt about the clippers since it’s a lakers town. People swore it was now a clippers town but look at the attn our trash team getting vs this preseason favorite
Who said this? SAS? That's the boogeyman in ya'lls head
I remember at the time on this board folks believed they were contenders. A lot of CP3 stans tried to speak that into existence.Anyone that thought that CP/Griffin Clippers were contenders were smoking garbage reefer

they should be a lot better based on their roster on paper, even without kawhi imo

This is bullshyt
Roster construction had nothing to do with the final minute of game 4 in OKC (2014)
Roster construction had nothing to do with the final quarter of Game 6 vs HOU (2015)
Those were their two biggest chances
Their big stars choked...that's all there is to it
Fouled a lot, couldn't guard wings, regularly out-hustled on offensive boards outside of Jordan, injuries, bench couldn't guard scarecrows.
No doubt CP3 and Blake gracefully and non-gracefully bowed out a ton in the postseason. I still feel the 3-1 choke to Houston to this very day
I thought for sure CP3 was going to curate and game manage us to a win when we were up 19 going into the 4th. Still had the mighty Warriors at their peak waiting in the next round tho. Still doesn't negate the fact that we never could acquire a single decent wing player in all those years.
Run the offense thru Zubac. It’s the only way.
I’m trolling.
But yeah. One of the negatives of living in the Lakers’ shadow is that nobody cares when you win. But also, one of the perks of living in the Lakers’ shadow is that nobody cares when you stink, either.

Didn't read the thread but it all depends on Kawhi. A PG-led team is ok probably top out at 6th seed if everything breaks our way. Otherwise it's not looking good. fukk Joe Ingles

I don't know about that one. I like PG and you have to remember, OKC PG13 was a mvp candidate. George may not have the defensive stature of Kahwi but I think you can win with George.

It's hard for me to see a team winning the title with a top 12-20 player as the main guy. I say this as someone that thinks PG is super underrated.
Kawhi doesn’t give a shyt. He has his rings and his legacy is set. He knows the clippers are a shyt low expectation franchise with a money mark billionaire owner who his team can run over. He would be getting that AD heat if he was on the lakers. But the important thing to him is he is in LA on a long term deal completely under the radar
