Thibs or Scott Brooks. MAYBE, you could see Calipari, though unlikely.

He's got one of the best players in the league and they still are terrible. Not saying AD is on Lebron's level but he's definitely a super star and that should net you at least a first round playoff win. I mean look at what freakin' Mike Brown was able to do with LeBoob and a bunch of scrubs.

This series reminds me of a pick up game at the local rec center, how many wide open threes and what transition defense? Pretty laughable.

Xmas Day unis have been leaked for next season. I really like the look of them. Of course no idea who will be playing.

Except Jrue Holliday, Eric Gordon, and Ryan Anderson all missed extended time. And Davis even missed like 13-14 games. Getting them TO the playoffs in the West with all the injuries he dealt with was a tremendous accomplishment, IMO. Obviously, not good enough, though.

None of those players matter. Monty can't get it done and he had 5 years to prove it. He has the worst winning % in NO history; he sucks and he will never get another job in the NBA again.

And he coached you in junior high and you never got off the bench? Is that why the incredible disdain for him? lol

Found this kinda interesting...

@BaxterHolmes: Every other NBA team aside from the Lakers and Spurs has made 7 or more trips to the lottery. (The Clippers have made an NBA-high 22 trips.)

Eric Girdon trailed only Kyle Korver in 3pt% this year, but he doesn't matter??

Memphis having the same problem they have every year in the playoffs, just can't score enough and don't have enough guys that can create offense on their own.

Warriors playing with fire bringing Curry and his notoriously shaky ankles back in to a blow out game with 4m left to play.

Heard a lot of speculation on Twitter that Horford traveled on his game winning put back. I was watching the ESPN summary later so they didn't show a good, slow angle but it looked like he caught it, came down with it, shuffled both feet then went back up.

Just another travel call the officials have missed during late game situations in the playoffs.

Blake Griffin has greatly improved his ball-handling.

Had a 19 pt lead and they couldn't guard the supporting cast.

Shit ton of pressure on CP3 in game 7

Clips have choked the series away so I expect them to lose Game 7 as well.
