Random NBA Observations 2014 - 2015

[Regular_P]

The Clippers had a better record without Chris Paul last season tho. You sure you wanna go down that road?

I think those guys just play better without one another.

Yeah we've been down this road before. You ended up in a ditch.

More . Interested in any factual discussions today?

You can start with posting the Clippers record last season w/ and w/o Chris Paul and explain how you came to your misguided conclusion re: said w/l record.

If it aint that, don't bother posting

With Paul -

50 -26 (65% winning rate)

Without Paul –

13-6 (68% winning rate).

Re: Westbrook

Of course they're better with him.

As for whether they need him to score a lot or whether they cant win without him...10 in a row and Durant locking up the MVP settles that, just as I always said it would.

Lets hope KD doesnt go back to deferring when Russ comes back.

If we go by that logic, then the Clippers no longer need CP3

Nah

Thunder have a 84% win rate with Westbrook and a 72% win rate without him - OKC have a worse record without Westbrook
Clippers have a 64% win rate with CP3 and a 70% win rate without him - LA have a better record without Paul

You say that the Thunder don't need Westbrook to win, so that unequivocally means that the Clippers don't need CP3 either.

 

[LV Koopa]

Actually they went on a streak when CP3 got hurt last year. It was mostly vs Eastern teams. CP3 the point god just been saving himself for the playoffs this year. Soon as Blake went down he stepped it up which shouldn't be surprising anyone.

Austin Rivers, however, wasn't smiling and sported a welt on his forehead that he said came as a result of a Garnett elbow earlier in the game.

Kevin Garnett is on good terms with Doc Rivers, but not so much with his former coach's son.


"He elbowed me in my head, and that's not going to fly, really," Rivers said.

Flip out here violating

I think there was a foul on the play, and I was just kind of walking to get to my spot on the free throw line, and Flip was out on the court," Redikk said. "I'm not sure why he was out on the court, but he was yelling and stuff, so I said to the ref, 'Man, get him off the court.' And Flip turned to me and said, 'Man, shut the f--- up.' And he said it like three times, and I just walked to my spot, and I got a double technical for that. So I shouldn't have kept talking, but all I said to Josh [Tiven] was, 'I'm going to get my money back,' and he threw me out for that.

"If I'm going to get thrown out, man, at least let me say some stuff. Flip cusses me out, and I say, 'I'm going to get my money back,' and I get thrown out for that? Whatever."

Re: Westbrook

Stop going back and forth with cp0 fans. Just ask them where clippers will end up in April. Watch them start stuttering like pussies. Its all about regular season tothese losers.

Re: Westbrook

So much , where do I begin?

For starters, you think the Clippers went 50-26 with Paul and 13-6 without him. Apparently the Clips played 95 games last season?

Again these nonsensical numbers are the entire basis of your stupid fukking thesis of bullshyt. Are you really this slow or are you tryna be slick with this dumb shyt?

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

Actually they went on a streak when CP3 got hurt last year.

Longest streak without CP was 5 games (Orlando, Boston, Lakers, Mavs, Knicks)

With Paul, the Clips won 11 straight from Feb 23rd to March 16th.

And of course had a better overall record with him playing.

Including the Clippers’ comeback win over the Mavericks the night Paul went down, the Clippers are 11-3 without Paul this month and 12-3 on the season without their leader. http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/...sclippers&id=5828&city=losangeles&src=desktop


Ignore simple Google and debate like a woman over a failure bball player brehs

 

[TheSpook]

I stand by what I always say. Chris Paul fans are the worst on this site. They think he can get away with choking year after year because he (plays the right way) and (it's a team game). Same nikkas popping shyt about pre title LeBron. Same nikkas popping shyt about pre title Dirk. Same nikkas popping shyt about pre title KG. Same nikkas popping shyt about Melo, Tony Romo. Paul is different though. fukk up outta here Brodie

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Is that our point gawd?

It was a good game last night. To be in it as long as they were without making a FG in the 4th is impressive. I wish they would iso Wiggins in the post when we're in a rut. He's shown he has multiple moves from there so he's our best source of offense when shyt breaks down.

It looks like Rubio jumpshot has regresses to last years form. He has that hitch where he loads the shot but everything is flat again

Lavine played well with Rubio and Wiggins but its baby steps and his decision making is ablosutley horrid. Im trying not to let Tre indoctrinate me because it looks like there's potential, but he makes some terrible, terrible basketball decisions.

@Malta bout time someone ain't with the losing.

Numbers are from nbastuffer, which include all games played, which means games in the playoffs too. 82 games in the regular season + 13 playoff games = 95 games. And those other numbers on Westbrook/Paul team records with/without them were as they stood on Feb 4, 2014.

Clippers still thriving without Paul in lineup - Jan 30, 2014

When Chris Paul went down with a separated right shoulder nearly four weeks ago, Doc Rivers knew exactly what he was dealing with.

Rivers never talks about injuries. He acts as if he’s unaware of the injuries his players sustain whenever they are brought up. Ask him for an update or timeline on the return of an injured player and he’ll shrug his shoulders and move to the next question.

It was different when Paul went down. Rivers let out a long sigh before talking to reporters in Dallas and said Paul would be out three to five weeks and maybe more with a separated right shoulder and the Clippers would have to find ways to win without him.

Including the Clippers’ comeback win over the Mavericks the night Paul went down, the Clippers are 11-3 without Paul this month and 12-3 on the season without their leader.
