    No they're not. Talking to many Laker fans, none of them like the Clippers. It's a Laker town. Clippers fans should be commended for sticking with their over the years.

    What the hell is going on with the Pacers? I expected them to come out and make a statement tonight, and instead they're down in the 3rd quarter to the terrible Hawks.

    They thought they could just turn it on! There record since the break was bad, under .500! Chemistry has been shit since the Granger trade as well. Go Hawks!

    I fully expect Pacer players to start punching each other on the court. All the talk about Paul George being a potential MVP made me laugh earlier this season, and he isn't close to a "superstar," IMO, but the biggest surprise is how rapidly Roy Hibbert's game has gone away. Too many miles on him already?

    Roy Hibbert is wondering the same thing! When you're being outplayed by Pero Antic...

    I was so bummed when Indiana "matched" (not really a true match of contract, but they maxed him out) before the 2012-13 season. Now, the Blazers are literally paying 1/3 of Hibbert's contract to Lopez, and also had money left for Mo Williams, Wright, and Robinson without going anywhere near the tax threshold.

    Game 2 is either going to be a war with them fighting to get back in the title picture, or it will be a team that has quit just playing out the season.

    Oh shit I forgot they had Nate on their coaching staff, that's their problem right there.

    Hibbert clearly isn't healthy, both physically and mentally. Without him, their defense pretty much sucks, and they have a headcase in Lance Stephenson who will likely implode when the team he is on isn't winning.
