    It's not a championship winning team but I think we knew that much. Good thing is that out of teams that are better than us, most of them are very likely to fall away in the next 2-3 years. Thunder will have just 1 year with all of their big three and then will struggle to put a good team around Westbrook. Rockets will have $75M or more locked in Paul and Harden and Paul will be 35 soon. Cavaliers probably have one more season of being competitive and in the entire Eastern Conference only Celtics might have a better mid-term outlook than Blazers and not by much. Spurs will be always good but that is another matter.

    It basically all comes down to how long Durant will stay with Warriors, or how long the whole team will stay together and take discounts (Klay, Green will have to be extended in 2019 and 2020).

    It isn't. Just saying that places like SLC and Denver tend to be placed that we historically have though times picking up Ws. Most of it is becasue of the travel and back to back situations. Have we been winning in Utah since Dame arrived? All the games are a blur to me to tell you the truth.

    Spurs won't always be good. Popovich has to retire sometime

    Dude...what?
    Two players! CJ and Pat shooting 9-24 for 26 points (=37.5%) is "Yuck".
    Yet Dame shooting 7-19 for 25 (=36.8%) is "decent in itself" ?? Dame "was incredible this game" ?

    Lillard had a mediocre game at best, he's almost never "incredible" against the Clippers.

    Well the raptors struggle against the Lakers last night and it there last game on there 4 game road trip. They might be tired going in that game. I believe also there big man is out right now. Utah will be struggle for us because we usually don't play well in Utah.

    He grabbed 18 rebounds against them once. He also won a playoff series against them.

    Raptors looked amazing against the Warriors. This Siakam guy is one to watch.

    Oh yeah? why don't you look at the rest of his stats in the 18 rebounds game.

    Won a playoff series against them? that's naive to say.
