You spelled Raptors wrong...

He did them dirty as hell! Not as bad as what Haybitch did to Utah but still ****ed up.

P.S. **** the Lakers!

He’s got them a ring though. If Conley, DM and Rudy all requested a trade after we win a championship, I won’t give a damn. The goal was to win a championship, they knew what they were getting into by trading for Kawhi. He accomplished his task and is now starting on a new challenge. It’s seems like he did them dirty but he didn’t. The media is making it seem like that. Kawhi requested all the meetings and dialogue in the meetings be kept secret. The media just likes to over dramatize big decisions
 
I think the Clippers have a slight edge. I think we have a slightly more complete team, but they have two superstars while we only have one, and that matters a ton in the playoffs.

Note: I'm counting Mitchell as a superstar since he gets superstar calls. I'm hoping the presence of Conley will elevate DM's game so that he becomes an actual superstar.

Looks fairly evenly matched to me as much as I'd love to claim that we are massively better. They have the advantage in some areas. We have the advantage in others. Both teams have star power and depth.

We have better point 2 guard and center. They have 2 small forwards.

Ahhh some parity finally. Thank you Kawhi for not going to the Lakers. West is going to be crazzzzyyyy and the jazz will be right in the middle of it!

I'm just really looking forward to our matchups with Houston. We need to show how much we improved against them.
 
West is disgustingly stacked compared to the east. Kinda sucks we built our first truly great roster in over a decade and every round is going to be a ****ing ********. Only two teams you could argue as being real title contenders in the east are the Bucks and Sixers, and tbh I don't think the Sixers got better this off season, despite the praise the media has given the horford signing.NBA, this would be a good time to get rid of conference seeding. We could still take 8 teams from each conference if that is their concern, but it would be great if we just had a 1 to 16 playoff seeding. Or better yet, top 7 teams get to pick their first round opponent in order. Would add so much drama and excitement and strategy to the postseason, plus would make the regular season matter more.

The best teams in the league are in the west: Clippers, Jazz, Lakers are easily the top 3 in my opinion, and maybe Denver is 4th(you could argue Bucks are better than Denver and I might agree, but I think losing Brogdon is really devastating to them; he was their second best player), + the possibility that Klay gets healthy by the postseason and golden state flips Dlow into something. We should have the possibility that these teams could matchup in the finals. I am a homer, but I really think the Jazz v Clippers will be the best two teams and will be the best series when they inevitably meet. Would be fun if the best was last.
