Expectations for the new-look Clippers

[Street Hunger]

The Clippers have some big names in that starting lineup now. And there's no reason to judge them on what happened today. Or really over the next week or two.

But as the team develops over the coming weeks and months, how good should they be?

James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are high profile names but what do they all add up to offensively and defensively?

And does that back court make sense?

Westbrook often doesn't coexist too well with anyone, so how will he do next to Harden?

Are their offensive talents too repetitive?

And does the team have enough size?

At the very least they should be a lot of fun to watch all season.

shit show. Hard to see this working out between the injuries and egos

[Axe]

People can say anything they want about them but the bottom line is they still have an incompetent head coach.

Went to the game tonight, Hardens gonna have to get in better shape because every Knick went at him. Even Divicenzo :lol

[Duffy Pratt]

We have injury prone load managers. Huge egos. Two extremely ball dominant guards. An historic choker, and another who is famed for his poor decision making. And a guard/forward wing filling it at the power forward. What could go wrong?

[Im Still Ballin]

Too many chefs in the kitchen. Not enough physicality. Bunch of broken-down old horses.

You know a lot of celebrity athletes endorse products they wouldn't touch. Jayson Tatum and LeBron james don't eat potato chips. It's refreshing to see a guy that absolutely uses the stuff he is trying to sell you.

This phrasing made me chuckle.

Harden has ruined the Clippers title chances just by joining them :facepalm

6 seed

Hopefully they remain healthy. Make another move before the deadline. They're small and have too many redundant, ball stoppers.

Zubac....has been food for everyone that sees him. :lol

[highwhey]

harden makes their playmaking elite, but what da fucc gett rid of westbrook already. the experiment has FAILED. he kills any momentum they have going on defense.

mitchell robinson was blocking the sh1t out of every last night until harden started sinking some step back 3s but ofc westbrick had to come and kill it. zubac is ttrash on defense, their interior defense was swiss cheese.
