Will win Title unless injury.
im a little worried about their depth
- rivers - ehhhh but he has played well
- jcrawford - cant guard a parked car
- big baby - overrated; cant do much
- hawes - gives them spacing but not that good
but other than that or a bad injury; i 100% agree
As a team they have a löt more character than I thought. Pretty huge accomplishment for doc if he gets another championship as coach/gm.
If healthy they are as good as anyone. Clippers vs Memphis needs to happen.
doc gets a lot of credit here.
It would be great to see a matchup between LAC and MEM later on.
It's all coming together for the Clips. Doc, CP3, Blake, Jordan, JJ etc. all playing at a high level on both ends. I agree with BRIGGS that they are a hand full. The Grizz may be the only team equipped to challenge them. LAC may not have looked as impressive as the Warriors in the regular season but they look scary now.

My advice is don't- I thought all year they would start losing due to lack of bench, injuries etc- for some reason they don't, they just keep winning, I can't explain it!

blake griffin has taken his game to the next level. that is a major factor.
Clippers might win the title more because the owner over payed for the team. Call it a gift.

But they were winning even when he was out injured- their success defies logic

Everything is just clicking for them..Alot of it has to do with how they have been able to slow Harden down...But the bench for the Clippers has been huge..I really think this series is over but some one needed to take Blake's confidence away...I think the next series if the meet the Grizzlies(??) will be vastly different..It will be a lot closer..Against GS, I'll take the Clippers..

you are so biased and inconsistent with your arguments.
Harden is getting assists, not shooting the team out of games and is playing with numerous stiffs who can barely help. Josh Smith is their savior ... yay.
But Melo leaves in all on the court? How? by playing great defense? By jacking up 30 shots and hitting them at an abominable rate? This is not the ultimate bias? You would be held in contempt if you tried to actually make this argument.
The clippers are freakin loaded and have an HOF coach!
Harden is doing what he can yet nobody else is. I actually think that his defense has been much better too but the Clippers are unstoppable right now and clicking on all cylinders.

Baised how, My message has always been consistent...Are you saying Melo doesn't play hard or play to win???..Do you think guys like Barnes can get into Melo's head? and change the way he plays???...Do you think freaking JJ Redick could slow Melo down???..Houston is down 3-1 and waiting for Harden to carry them...
Are you saying that Houston wasn't the favorite going into this series???

If Memphis can shake GS -- they take out the Clippers. Memphis is just better at basketball.

I'm not sure about that because the Clippers aren't mentally weak...I think GS is showing their youth...I think Tony Allen is in the splash brother's heads...Blake Griffin versus Zebo, love to see it...
LAC vs Mem is a classic matchup. Both teams are actually well balanced and tough. LAC has some guys who can take it to another level which is why I think they may be able to win a Title. CP3 or Blake can dominate. Jordan is a beast on the boards and in the paint on D. Their getting good bench performance. Doc may have his guys finally ready.

you are saying that Melo is mentally tough? Did you not see how easy it is to get into his head and make him chuck up horrible shots?
everybody wants to win in the playoffs and leave it all out there. Melo gives it his all in the playoffs, especially on offense. He just takes terrible shots and that is partly because people get into his head and partly because he gets into his own head with a silly overestimation of his of every shot attempt that he takes.
to be right you make so many strawman arguments that are not backed by ANY data.
I do respect your intellect and I agree with you about a lot of players but it seems like they are for the wrong reasons.
You really need to hold every player to the same level of accountability.
Forget whats on paper. JJ redick if healthy is a sniper that spreads it out for the slashers.
I'd like to see Memphis break thru and win. No hate towards GS, just like to see teams evolve. Memphis been good for a few years now.
