    Default Remember all that Clippers Hype: What Happened?

    Before the season it was: "We taking Over LA," "We Da Bess," "We gonna make a deep playoff run,""CP3 gonna win MVP"

    Now it is like: "We Even Gonna Make the Playoffs"

    What really happened? this team is way to talented to be fighting for a playoff spot. I have lost a little respect for CP3 with to be honest. I couldn't imagine this happening to another top tier player in his prime on a team loaded with so much talent. smh

    Was Billups going down that big of a blow?

    Was a team of Griffin, Jordan, Butler, Williams, and now Young not enough?

    Billups went down.

    Mo Williams and Caron Butler finally missed.

    Teams resolved to put Griffin and Jordan on the ft line more often than let them dunk since they are horrendous ft shooters.

    Coach may have lost the team, and rumor is he even got into fisticuffs with Mo Williams.

    wow, didn't hear that rumor. If that is the case, someone may have to go.

    Regardless, shouldn't this squad be adaptable enough to at least make the playoffs comfortably with this crazy level of talent and an elite orchestrator in CP3.

    Nick Young is a great fit. Problem is.... he has no practice time with team and just flat out got thrown into the mess. A full summer+training camp will do wonders for this team. People gave the Thunder, Grizzlies and other teams 3-4 seasons to put it together but since the Clippers couldn't do it in one condensed season without training camp or practice... people want to rip them apart?

    9 new players this year, 9 new players last year. Major injuries to key players. Sh** coach... no time to gel. Pretty simple.

    That's not what you were saying in the beginning of the season.

    And you blame me why? They had an 11-3 month of January knocking out all the good teams and looked like an elite team. Which is why so many said they could make WCF first year. I too believed.... and when they came back down to earth and their problems showed.. it's devastating. Doesn't mean the things I'm saying now aren't valid.

    This isn't even the same team anymore man. Like seriously unrecognizable.

    You know why losing Billups (a great PG) was such a big deal? Because he's a coach on the floor. You know why that's a big deal? Because they don't have a good one on the bench.



    Yes, that's it. Wilbon (I love you) is blaming this slip on Billups being out and saying it isn't VDN's fault...the fact that a great and PURE PG, is playing SG alongside one of the most ball-dominant PG's ever, while not shooting well, is (in this case) an indictment of VDN's coaching. Maybe he'll get better. But right now, he is not. And he needs to go somewhere else.




    And, they're still over .500 and they will make the playoffs and be competitive, at worst.
