Clippers have zero excuses not to make the finals.
They didn't have any excuses last year, but with Lebron/AD injured and clearly not at 100% all year due to the shortest offseason in NBA history, the Clippers REALLY don't have any excuses this year. They should easily make the finals and win the West. If they don't...I'd have to consider every player on that team a pretender.

They don't? Are you sure about that?

Think again. Better than Isiah if you hadn't heard
Re: Clippers have zero excuses not to make the finals.
Their excuse last year was they had horrible depth (lou, montrezl harrell) and a horrible playoff coach in doc.
Now they replaced Lou/Harrell with champions Rondo/Ibaka and have an elite playoff coach in Ty Lue.
Kawhi is never a pretender after his 2019 playoff run. Now Durant? That's a different story.

An elite playoff coach in lue?
In your dreams.

You’ll come up with a new excuse when Kawhi blows a 3-1 lead to the Jazz, I’m sure.

Blew a 3-1 lead and double digit leads in games 5, 6 and 7. Literally the least excusable series loss in NBA history. :oldlol:
Re: Clippers have zero excuses not to make the finals.
They needed Lowry. Rondo isn't that guy.

Rondo\George\Kawhi is the greatest trio in NBA history when all players are their peak, it's still the best trio in the league today. Been chasing Rondo's ass around for a year now and finally got him! He's the missing piece. Going to squeeze 3 years out of Rondo at 35, 36, 37 years old and win 3 titles. Kawhi\George don't have to worry about running the entire offense by themselves anymore.

rondo has won a title as the 3rd wheel more recently then Lowry has and Lowry couldn't get anybody to trade for him. So it looks like i'm talking the truth hahaha

Lowry can get you buckets. Rondo can't. Lowry is a better floor general and a competent defender. Rondo is finished.
