Doc saying the team still playing at a 6 or 7 right now
as for bron...if he makes it out the first round, that be one of the greatest achievement. that is worth more than a chip
he makes it to the finals by dragging these bums

Can’t take everything Doc says seriously. Remember he did say DeAndre Jordan was part of a big 3 and a legitimate DPOY candidate. But I think he may be right that the Clippers have yet to play their best ball.

With FOUR roster changes and the way we're playing right now, if we get past POR in the 1st, that's nothing. But POR then HOU? 1/4 of a ring. And THEN Little Brother? 3/4 of a ring. Then of course if we make it to the COVID Throwback to Orientation Jamboree Finals and beat whoever it is in the East, he gets the entire certificate/plaque/year round pass to Disney/whatever the prize will be.

They’re the most equipped for the title under these circumstances. King Kawhi

Lebron and AD got bad juju on them from how lame that New Orleans trade was conducted on both their ends. An epic upset is the only way it can end for them this season

So it's not brutal? Because the Dubs have had similar paths. So that was easy then?****** calling this “brutal” lol.

****** calling this “brutal” lol.
To clarify, part of the “brutal” classification comes from the fact of who Bron would have to carry to the Finals in comparison to the competition, if that makes sense. Like POR and HOU would probably be the worst possible early round matchups for the Lakers then the Clips are the Clips.
How do you think the Dubs runs stack up? They faced some better competition but their teams were far superior IMO.

Blazers, Rockets, Clips, Bucks would be a hell of a gauntlet to run through.

I’m just saying...over the past 20 years in the west...I’ve seen better 8 seeds than these blazers. And better second round teams than these rockets.
It’s still a tough go, all things considered. Wouldn’t call it “brutal” but it ain’t a cakewalk like ole boy used to.

I can agree with this. Honestly, I wouldn’t have said that in early March. But this roster is looking flabby sick from top-to-bottom right now. West Coast 2018 Cavs is probably a spot-on comparison with how they went 7 in the first round and ECF with LeBron, a good big and nothing else consistent or reliable.

Hot take; Dame Lillard will have a higher PPG average in the Lakers-Portland 1st rd match up then Lebron or AD.
