Clippers are just 2 games ahead of the #4 Mavericks. :confusedshrug:

We've only played 12 games at home vs Clippers' 15, Clippers are also 7-7 on the road vs the Lakers' 14 - 2.

Mavs are razor thin on talent. Hardaway JR and Powell are their 3rd and fourth options.

This is said a lot but didn't they just beat the Bucks without Doncic?

Also Jalen Brunson is incredibly under rated on here, I never seen him talked about. Dude reminds me of younger VanVleet.

Clips have also had their full starting unit for one game, had injury issues during pre season and didn't get that time to gel and are 15 spots higher on current SOS rankings. Not to mention this ridiculous stretch, in the modern scheduling, of 4 in 5s they played and segababa tips being within 23 hours.

Everyone knows the Clippers are the team to beat.

Their regular season record doesn't matter.

One team is holding back, load management.
Another team is on playoff mode already.

Wonder what will happen when it is the real time of playoff.

Holding back Playoff P? :lol

Big bark for a roster that has little playoff success outside Kawhi

Those Lakers boys are the ones wearing the hardware

Did you really watch their games?
Probably not.

No player has more than 25 minutes per game... KL and PG play together in limited games...

If this is not holding back, what is?

If this is not holding back, what is? George, Kawhi and Lou are all running 30mpg :lol

Infact, only 2 players on LA push over +30mpg, LBJ + AD

Clippers otoh have 6 doing +28mpg

Lakers are running 10-11 man rotations going deep into their bench almost every game. Nowhere close to a 8-9 man playoff rotation

Everyone just waiting for that Laker/Clipper showdown.

Sorta like GSW being clear favorites the last couple of years.

Would be funny seeing a team like Houston throw a monkey-wrench in there. They'd need a bit of a resurgence from Brook tho.

So the Lakers coaching staff is MUCH smarter than the Clippers?

Thanks for confirming broski :applause: :applause:

The other day I was hearing the Lakers were going for 74 wins and the Clippers were messing up.

I checked the standings and the gap isn

Another loss for LA.

So how exactly are they supposed to go 74-8 if they already have 5 losses? Just a few days ago that was the story.

They would have to go 50-3 from here on out. How worn out would they be trying to chase it and why was this even a story when we know it

Who cares which team has the better record between Clippers and Lakers?
At the end of the day, Lakers will have 7 home games if they meet clippers. :oldlol:
