    Responding first to OP, if you fire Doc, who do you replace him with? Got a better HC candidate out there? Keep in mind that you have to keep your stars happy, and I haven't heard anything that suggests that Kawhi or PG are unhappy with their coach.

    Second, response to the quote. Yeah, isn't it great? We're a third of the way into the season and I have no idea who's going to win the title. Clippers? Lakers? 76ers? Hell, even the Raptors or Mavs have an outside shot. It's a refreshing change from previous years when we knew going into the season that the Warriors or Heat were going to win the title.

    Yea I'm not sure firing him really helps other than create another storyline in a big media market which I don't think they need.

    It is interesting, I mean the expectation is that the Lakers and Clippers meet in the conference finals but we can't say that since we don't even know if the seeding would allow for that and second, that they'll even be the last two teams standing by the time the Conference Finals rolls around. East should be just as interesting.

    The Clippers started the game poorly. Although they had caught up by the fourth quarter, the Kings were feeling good and they clinched the game with smart plays that took advantage of the Clippers' penchant of doubling the ball handler.

    I thought the new guys would bolster their depth, but they can't straight up replace George and Pat Beverly.

    Man Doc is..... not that good.

    This team simply won’t get out of the West unless they make some major adjustments. They have the talent, loads of it, but the actual effort is c lacking and the synergy is way off. That really falls on the coaching. The lineups are terrible especially defensively and the offense is stagnant and just turn-based isos

    Doc is a good coach and everyone is overreacting to load management and injuries.
