Clippers are #2 in the West without a star player, now that’s impressive. Looks like Doc can really coach.
 
Raise your hand if you thought that 20% through the season there would be a three-way tie for 1st place between Portland, Memphis and the Clippers...

:confused:
If Clippers, Memphis, and LeBron make playoffs, which 3 teams from last year don’t make it? On that note, what happened to the Utah Jazz?
 
Dennis Schroder shot 3-17 today lmao.
 
Plus Conley and Gasol haven't gotten hurt yet.
They literally have two above average NBA players, and neither of them are stars, and they're older and injury prone. They're not gonna make the playoffs.
 
Fultz situation is getting from bad to worse.

He won't play anymore in games or practices.

"Markelle Fultz is scheduled to see a shoulder specialist early next week at the direction of his attorney, Raymond Brothers. Brothers says that Fultz will not participate in team practices or games until after the the specialist has had a chance to evaluate him, as first reported by The Athletic." Ian Bagley.

We could be looking at 2 of the biggest #1 busts in history in just the last 5 years between this kid and Anthony Bennett.
 
Was listening to Casey/Joe on the Ripcity Report and the last question about Blazers players keeping an eye on GS was interesting. Casey mentioned that Dame is actually very close to Draymond off the floor. Kinda figured this since both are from the same draft and they're wired the same way in term of competitiveness. But I wonder if things get really sour down there if Draymond would make a move north.
 
Draymond is the type of player people HATE playing against, but LOVE playing with. I’m not a fan, but would gladly accept him on this roster.

Aminu and Meyers for Draymond?

Agreed. He's the second most valuable player on GS behind Steph, but I would bet that if push comes to shove, GS will choose KD over Dray

Pretty sure KD doesn't LOVE playing with him.

Hi attorney should schedule an appointment with a brain specialist. At this point, his shooting yips are 100% mental.

This was from over a year ago (Nov. 1, 2017):

On Sunday, the 76ers released an update on guard Markelle Fultz's right shoulder injury. They stated that after a visit with Dr. Ben Kibler in Lexington, Ky, it was confirmed that Fultz did not have any structural impairment but he would be out indefinitely with soreness and scapular muscle imbalance.

This was from January 2, 2018:

Markelle Fultz has been rehabbing his right shoulder since late October. (Note: that's October 2017)

Fultz was ruled out indefinitely on Oct. 29 with soreness and scapular muscle imbalance in his right shoulder. There is no structural impairment to the shoulder and as of early December, Fultz no longer had soreness in the shoulder.

So, no soreness in the shoulder in nearly a year, but his attorney is sending him to a shoulder specialist.
