Anyone who thinks we'd actually compete in the playoffs without those two based on last year's success is off base.this is so not true.... you play the team matched up against you. Celtics beat up on all the teams they faced you cannot take anything away from them.We were 1-7 on the road. To say we "beat up" teams is a massive stretch.

How is there no Kyle Lowry/Wilt Chamberlain “0” points Memes?
If anyone thinks I'm surprised by D'Angelo Russell evolving into an all-star, you need only to see my supremely sarcastic post back in 2016:"32 points for D'Angelo Russell tonight in a sad glimpse of what could have been. Tragic that the 20 year old had his career cut short by hackers leaking the video he took of Nick Young during their prank war. Really a shame. He could have been a pretty good player. Sad it's over. It's a shame his teammate Kobe Bryant couldn't give him some sage advice about salvaging a career after a rape trial. Unfortunately, it's much easier to come back from rape allegations/pubically cheating on your wife than it is coming back from a leaked snap chat video that allegedly broke a bro code. I wonder if he can get a fresh start in China like Stephon Marbury. "
This GSW team is so good I think of a some things to do to help out the Clippers.1, Clippers get to play 6 players2. All GSW players start with 1 personal foul each OR3. Clippers get 6 extra timeouts.
So much for the greatness of GSW. It's a ball game again.
