    Do you really want me to do this? Just type roco sucks and a few threads pop up with people saying so and dissing Powell too.

    You've read the same posts that I have. But if you really want me to copy and paste quotes I will.

    When did Terry Stotts join the Clippers?

    Dame and Nurk were pretty great too.

    Was Paul George healthy at that point?

    I also wonder how long it'll take for Leonard to return (I also wonder why it is other players returning from injuries, Zion, Leonard, Davis, etc, are given the benefit of the doubt, but no mention of Dame...especially since his injury doesn't have much impact on his knees, or athleticism diminishing, nor is it a habitual thing with him).

    So now we have
    Minnesota "Stacked"
    Denver "Pretty Stacked"
    Golden State "Stacked"
    Grizzlies "Pretty Stacked"
    Phoenix "Pretty Stacked" (they did win 64 games last year)
    New Orleans "Stacked"

    Add the Clippers "Stacked"

    Honestly where does that leave Portland? 8th? 9th? 10th?

    That's just Western Conference.
    Do we really want to bring up Miami, Boston, Milwaukie, Philly, Nets, Chicago or Toronto?

    Pending injuries that's where I have them. 7-10 in the play-in. Dame is awesome but there is just too much talent.

    Dallas will likely be in play-in. So will Lakers. And there you have your top 10 teams.

    I struggled with Dallas? They had a pretty good season last year. They have Luka. They could be pretty good?

    Damn Lakers still have Lebron and Davis. They could win some games.

    You heard correctly, sir.
    And...
    THE reason they are pictured is because they are on the fucking team.
    Hopefully, (since i really don't like the clippers), they will be depended on to contribute.

    I mean 10 of the Clippers are pictured. If they are as bad as I've heard from folks here you'd think they wouldn't be top 10 on the team. Powell might even start!

    I am really big on NOLA, but this team could do some damage as well.

    Looks like I'm heading up to Seattle Monday to work for the Clippers on their broadcast. It will be good to be back in that arena and to see my main baguette Nico Batum! Balmer's money is oh so sweet too.

    I'm imagining how the Blazers will do if they aren't the shitty team you expect them to be

    I have no problem with wishful thinking. I'm all for it.
