Bucks waived Dame, and want to pay a lot for Myles Turner. i don't love it. i'm not sure Myles is worth that price, but they need another big with Lopez leaving.

Now he's back to Blazers.

Btw, the clippers looking scary....with CP3, Beal, Brook Lopez coming in.

But still I don't know if I could bet on them making noises in the West.
5 years ago, this line up could be lethal, but at the moment? I am not sure lol

At best they are CF bound and thats it

Joker is more emotional of his horse winning the race than winning NBA Championship and MVP

To me, the Clippers seem like Phoenix Suns 2.0. Build a roster around a star player (Leonard) who shrinks away from leadership and who is almost never available. Then pair him with a second star (Harden) who has a reputation for being selfish and lazy. Then add two veterans (CP3 and Lopez) whose best days are a decade behind them. Finally, round out the roster with a one dimensional role player (Beal) who somehow convinced everyone that he is a top performer despite the fact that he’s lost at every team he has played for.
I find it hard to take that team serious.

For me, I am intrigued by whether the Lakers can pull things together enough to make one final run. I am skeptical, but I have more faith in them than the Clippers.

Otherwise, I am interested in seeing whether the Spurs are mature enough to challenge the Thunder. Because the Spurs are looking solid at least on paper, especially if Carter Bryant can develop.

For the Lakers, I think it's all about management. It's been "OK" for the last few years, but took a few steps back in recent years. WRT the Spurs, man, they look like they could be on the verge of something big. They seem to be maybe too stacked at PG and could use some real perimeter shooting, but they are gonna be really, really tough to defend. They're young, talented, and if they can stay healthy, they are gonna be a real force.
