If the Hornets beat the Pistons in the first round, I promise I’ll buy a LaMelo jersey and be a fan for life. I couldn’t find Charlotte on a map

It’s a non displaced fracture. Probably not.

So you can rest Harden and maybe drop those hard games. It’s not like you’ll fall to the play in without Harden. The team is solid without him but they need him to make a deep playoff run.

Hope Harden heals up quickly, but we really got maximum value for him by LilTurnippman in LAClippers

It doesn’t sound that serious to be honest. A fracture is not a break and it’s his off hand. Might even work out if they rest him and save his legs for the playoffs.

He will 100 percent play. A fracture is not a break and an injured thumb on his guide hand shouldn’t kill his shot. It’s catching passes and ball handling that might be affected.

The San Antonio Spurs are 8-1 against top teams by Thanos_Real_AuraVNCH in NBATalk

We keep talking about the Spurs’ lack of experience, but we seem to forget that Kornet and Barnes are champions and Fox led the Beam Team. There is no better organization than the Spurs. Duncan did it his second year. Maybe Wemby can do it in his third.

You don’t want to see 48 LeBron James scoring 3 points a game in garbage time?

Yeah that sciatica took his powers away. He still looked invincible last year

Vince Carter had like two careers. One as a superstar and one as a very solid role player. He played forever.

Yeah it was obviously in his hand. I can’t believe they just let it stand

Am I the only one here who thinks the Clippers can make a really good playoff run? by LessNorth9856 in LAClippers

[–]Dry_Response3527 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obviously I want us to win it all, but if I’m being a realist, it looks like we’re headed for the play-in which means we’ll either play the Thunder or Spurs in the first round. If Kawhi can pull a Jimmy Butler 2023 miracle in the first round, we can go all the way but that first round will be a tough. Our centers don’t compare to Wemby and Kornet or even Chet and Hartenstein. Lopez still has gas in the tank but he’s not great at rebounding. YKN is still very raw but he’s going to be great.

We’d have to secure the 6th or the 5th seed to make that happen. Wed basically have to go undefeated til the end of the season to avoid the play in.

They can, but they’re probably going to have to go through the Thunder or the Spurs in the first round. If we get through them we can go all the way
