    What happens if they have injuries later in the season?? It's one thing if they have a nice lead going down the stretch......but November???

                  I won't go as far as saying it doesn't matter, but sure seems like it matters less in sports than it used to.

                    In the West it doesn't matter because the competition plays in the same building. No one else in the West can beat them

                                  Why are we all acting surprised? We all knew he's sit out 15-20 games this year due to Load Management. Clippers management knew that the day they signed him.

                                    It was speculated for some time that Leonard would join the Clips and bring help as well as AD joining LeBron in LA.

                                    Maybe that's the REAL reason Durant decided to bail out and head East.

                                        Fukk Kawhi Leonard. Shouldn’t he just want to play ball. The Clippers suck. They’re overrated. Paul George is awesome but he’s human.

                                          Teams want to appeal to being "player friendly" because they've let these clowns firm super teams every year w no regard to integrity of league or value of a dollar

                                              You answered your own question with your question. "It's early" & this game is basically irrelevant of the standings in a long NBA season.

                                                Next will be load management during the playoffs.

                                                Where do they come up with this sh#$ "load management?" lol

                                                Just make anything up.

                                                    nope. guaranteed cover after rockets covered vs GS

                                                    I laughed when they were down 17 in the 2nd q and down 14 in 4th q ... knew I was going to win
