We all know how these verbal agreements can go, but it's seems like CP3 is gonna spend the rest of his prime with LAC. The question is, will he ever win a championship?

Has never even made conference finals yet is lauded for this leadership abilities. Very injury prone as of late. Also getting up there in age.

His best shot to win one is with Blake in LA. They could maybe win it this year if GSW gets the injury bug again. When at full health they are a top 4 team in the league IMO. First month of the season they were the best team in the league. Yet they are also mentally weak and have potential to fold up quick in a playoff series when things turn on them.

Yeah I think he's gonna surpass Chuck, Malone and Stockton as the greatest player to never win a title. Idk what he's sees in the Clippers and Doc as an executive who's made 0 moves to improve the team.

they are good enough talentwise they just are never healthy when the playoffs roll around. And they are mentally weak.

Don't see how.

This is just the way it is. He's a great player playing in a era with other great players that he's just a notch below. He may surprise and get one in Nowitzki-style, this is sports, that's always possible. Wouldn't bet on it though.

I agree when healthy they are a force but when are they healthy

next season they should try to play with the 2nd unit as much as possible and just roll out the 1st unit as needed until the playoffs.

How is that docs fault? Why would Paul hold it against doc that Paul breaks his hand. Paul breaks hand. "Oh doc sucks. I will go play somewhere else." Makes no sense. The clips players believe they can win a title as currently constructed. I don't see griffin going anywhere either.

Would easily have a better chance to win a title playing with Pels.

AD/Boogie»»»»» Griffin/Jordan and it's not really close

two players who are career losers. One winning season in their career between them? Lol yea right. LAC also has an elite three point shooter in redick. A better coach. Better owner. more attractive to FAs. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Just pulling a Boom so you can see from our perspective how idiotic your statements can be.

But this is easy to explain:

A big three of AD Boogie and Cp3 with a good coach is light years better than Blake and Jordan with Chris. As presently constructed however Chris would be wiser to stay in LA due to Pels shite coach. Also Boogie does hate Chris so it'd never happen.

Jordan is a FT liability in crunch time. And generally offensively inept.

And Griffin is almost even with AD but AD's ceiling is higher than Griffins.

And don't worry. Now that the Pels will be the next super power team I'll be on this board giving hot takes all the time Boom. You ain't running shite on these NBA threads anymore
