    LA Clippers



    This team actually manages to be even more of a disgrace every year, unreal...

    Don't worry, Doc Rivers will have them talking trash on the Warriors by Monday. They are clueless.

    Doc has lost the plot. I used to rate him as a top 3-5 coach but not anymore.

    Same here. Picking up is son and talking trash on opponents who have owned his team have tarnished his legacy in my eyes. I think we can all agree he cares deeply about my opinion.

    Good coach. Lousy GM... signed Hawes to a 3 year deal and then quit on him a week or two into the season (rightly so). Then trades for Stephenson and quits on him a couple weeks into the season (again, rightly so). Pat Riley he aint.

    What???? Good coach???? 7 million per year for this, and then he trades for his useless son ???? Do you follow NBA at all. Bring back Donald.

    He is a good midrange shooter, but he turns the ball over too much.

    Clippers slept through the 1st half and it is going to cost them. Until they learn that any team can beat them if the Clippers don't give 100% for 48 minutes.

    Let me ask you a simple question ???? If his Dad wasn't the coach, would he even be on this team ??? I say no way.

    That was some interesting line movement, with no apparent injuries. The total moved this morning 204->208>201. It went way under. Somebody might have had inside info on what is going with the Clips. One thing that apparent on the court is that Rivers Jr. is not well liked by his teammates. WTF are Pierce and Josh Smith doing in the NBA is also not clear, you'd think they would be back in the hood. We might have another Rocketgate brewing here. The team looks completely dysfunctional. DJ got his big contract and does not give a sh.t; CP3 and Griffin cannot really carry this sinking ship by themselves. The next game will show if the Clips have any heart left.

    They've looked awful since blowing their big lead against the Warriors, probably felt similar to blowing a 3-1 lead against Houston in the playoffs last year. Did you see the interview with Blake after the Warriors game where he said something along the lines of "It's not a rivalry, they're just a better team"? I think their confidence is pretty low right now. Today's loss was ugly.

    Good call. Rivers brought in Pierce to help instill some swagger in these losers (he would never say something like that ^^^). To be determined...

    Pretty much to any 3rd string PG in the league. Rivers Jr. is just awful on offense, teams are basically playing off of him, he is also turnover prone on passing; the only good thing about his game is the effort on defense, but that can take you so far.
