On paper, the Clippers look amazing. They better do some serious load management so that guys are available for the playoffs.

Starters: Harden, Beal, Kawhi, Collins, Zubac
Bench: CP3, Dunn, Bogdanovic, Jones Jr, B. Lopez.

You can bet the farm that at least Kawhi and Paul will miss significant time (combination of injuries and load management). Probably Beal will miss a decent amount too. That puts a big crimp in what they can accomplish in the regular season.

[Who]

Lakers waive Shake Milton, Jordan Goodwin and Trey Jamison. Doing this to sign Marcus Smart.

I liked J Goodwin when I saw him play. Good 3rd string defensive combo guard. I hope some team picks him up. He can play.

I see some Lakers fans are upset that Jordan Goodwin was waived. Some going as far to saying why get M Smart when we already have J Goodwin. It is not an unfair point. Smart has hardly contributed anything to his teams over the past 2 years due to injury. It is not clear what he will be able to contribute moving forward. Goodwin may end up being the more valuable player (due to availability alone). These Lakers fans Smart is, or may be, washed up. Not the player he was in the past and not a solution to anything. They might be right. I hope they are not. I love Smart. But they might be right. He has contributed nothing for 2 years.

I don?t think they are concerned about the regular season. Look at what GS did last year. They were a play-in team and knocked out the 2 seed.

Kawhi, Paul, Beal, Harden, Collins, Bogdanovic, Lopez... All more likely to player 40 games than 75.
