******* Monta's traveling *** man
Good shot though. Monta is a special kind of talent. His Career rejuvenation with Dallas has been a sight to behold. My brother Juice hate it had to be him amn.
This contender talk though... Doesn't make sense for Dallas, Golden State, Portland, Houston, Memphis, to all be contenders for this year's title but for the Clippers to not be. Won't list OKC because they won't make it due to how bad the east is. As I've said before, the regular season with this Clippers team (or any of these aforementioned teams) the regular season doesn't matter it'll come down to home court and match ups. All of these teams in the past 3 years or so have in my eyes done enough to be afforded leniency with their regular season performance. When it comes to the West, all of these teams are pretty elite in that they all will probably win 50 games. With that, I don't pay too much attention to their opponent as much as I pay attention to how they are playing. I even pay more attention to how they are playing than the results. These teams are 50 win teams, the results will take care of themselves, it's all about how they are playing in April heading into the postseason.
For the record, all of those teams are contenders. Just because they get bounced in the first or second round, doesn't make them not contenders. That's silly. You can't not win 56, and 57 games with two top 10 talents and "not" be a contender. You may not think they can go far in the playoffs, but they absolutely have the talent and roster to do so and for that reason alone the clips are a threat. Same goes for Portland, Houston, Dallas, GSW, and memphis.
