Are the Clippers a real contender?

lol...i dont think soo

Just wondering... who do you think has been better than the Clippers so far? I'm not saying who has better record but rather who has been more convincingly good outside of maybe Miami and the Spurs? OKC, Lakers, Grizzlies, Celtics etc have all looked weaker than the Clippers so far.

Edit: Knicks have been very good too, forgot them.

Miami, Spurs, OKC, Lakers, Celtics are the top 5 teams to win a title. Clippers come in 6th, having a slight chance to win the title IMO. Outside of those 6 teams, no one else is a true contender for the title.

No FemaleFavours, I am not forgetting the Nets since they don't belong. And the Spurs have as good of a chance as any. In fact, they were the best team coming into the playoffs last year IMO. They didn't drop off this year, so they still have a shot at the title.

Well we know your predictions are a little off, since you said the Jermaine Oneal and Chris Bosh raptors were winning the NBA championship.

Celtics look like *** this year and Lakers as well as OKC don't look as formidable yet as they could be by season end. RIGHT NOW nobody outside of Spurs, Knicks and Heat look better and even that's arguable. Do any other teams have as many quality, 9+ point wins than the Clippers? The average win margin of the Clippers is 13.2 ppg.

It's a little sad then when it's a whole lot more accurate than your predictions.

You might judge, but I don't judge based on 6 games. I try to predict over 82 games the the playoffs. Just because they started off shaky doesn't change the fact the Celtics and Lakers have a championship caliber roster.


Also, that last part of your post shouldn't even be on there. You're posting stats over such a small sample size?

Did they even make the playoffs that year? doubt it.

Like it or not Chris Bosh by himself couldnt make the playoffs half the time, Nets have a lot better of a team than those raptors. Jose Calderon was your pg.

Never said they did. Doesn't change the fact it's more accurate than your aspirations for the Nets.

Your point? You're still wrong.

im not trying to be mean here, cause I kinda feel bad for you. But I think you are jealous of the Nets sucess and able to keep their all star while your all star left. I know what its like to have the worst team in the league. But dont hate on the Nets because they are good now be happy for us. When raptors are good in 20 years and Nets are struggling ill root for them.

I'm not jealous or hating on the Nets. I just state facts. They aren't title contenders this year. That's a fact.

I like the Nets, lots of potential to be a top tier team but I don't see that team winning a championship any time soon.
