    The Jazz coach looks and sounds like a heel wrestling manager lol

    Jamal Crawford.... here's a fun question for you guys (and ladies).

    Is he a hall of famer?

    I'd love to see the Jazz win this series, especially with the Jazz losing Gobert.

    They should play for Toronto.

    Definitely. Jazz without Gobert will be in our favor in the second round.

    The Clippers look hesitant tonight. I think they will start launching shots with confidence in the second half and beat the Jazz by 10+

    Something about the Clippers just doesn't add up to a contender. They need to blow it up.

    Yeah and I think it could happen as early as this summer if Griffin bounces.

    It's weird though, they should be contenders... top 5 PG, Top 5 PF, Top 5 C and the best 6th man of the modern era.

    I think they are just way overrated as a team and need to blow it up. There is a massive drop off in talent from CP3+BG to DJ and their role players are average at best.

    It's weird. They can argue that they have the best PG, best PF, best C, best SG, best 6th man, and best coach. I'm not saying that's true but it could be argued. They started season 10-1 and finished 7-0. This should be their year.

    I think the weak link is Jordan. Just lacks natural instincts on offense. Can only dunk off lobs and putbacks. Horrific free throw shooter.

    Imagine if they had Nurkić.

    I think they're basically paper tigers. I sometimes feel a little sorry for CP3.
