Warriors. They still have a very solid and deep team. 2 other all stars. Excellent D, as always.

Clippers aren't anything significant outside of Chris Paul. And with Blake hurting (quad) I firmly believe warriors win.

Unless, the Blazers beat the clippers. Then it gets interesting.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Warriors might have won even if they didn't lose Paul.

The thing that sucks, though, is this is going to give Doc incentive to keep the team together for another year more than likely, because they'll end up being robbed of any chance due to Paul's injury. I would've liked to nab DJ if they were going to go a different route.

I would have taken the Warriors even with Paul. I have no faith in the Clippers when it comes to the playoffs. Portland should win this series now anyways.

Warriors will sweep the Clippers if they somehow beat Portland. I think it's HIGHLY unlikely LA is able to beat Portland.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

It's up to the Austin Rivers-DeAndre Jordan show to keep them in it.

And a sprinkling of The Truth.

Per J.A. Adande:

A source said Chris Paul is "most likely" out for the rest of the playoffs because of the broken bone in his right hand. It's possible there could be a better prognosis after more X-Rays once the swelling goes down.

Doc said Griffin doesn't look good either. So, yeah, the Clips seem down and out.

i have just recovered from a 4th right metacarpal break commonly known as boxer break, it's really tough, but I was able to play in about 3 weeks with pain. if that is the case for Paul, he could be back in about 2-3 weeks considering the advance medicine and treatment available.

the clippers have nothing to worry about, they do have PAUL PIERCE THE TRUTH!!!!

I thought the matchup between the two teams with CP3 there.

Without CP3, GSW is the firm favourite.

That’s not all. Blake Griffin’s partially torn quad tendon is acting up again, and he wasn’t able to play down the stretch. “It doesn’t look great for him, either,” Rivers said. “We’ll see about it tomorrow.” He said Griffin felt it when he planted on the leg. “We’re not sure with Blake yet,” Rivers said. “I think he’ll get evaluted tomorrow when we get back. I would say 50-50 on the next game with him. I expect him to be back, but we don’t know that yet. So I don’t want to say much.” – via Los Angeles Daily News
