Destroyed them early in the season, beat them on their home floor on SEGABABA, and nearly beat them again on their home floor in the 2nd to last game of the season without Conley, Gasol, and TA.

Point differential is a pretty damn strong predictor of how good a team is IMO do you care to post to the respective point diffs?

More @WojYahooNBA : Spurs are all-in on Aldridge & are the frontrunners. Aldridge could still stay in Portland. Gasol staying in Memphis.

Well that's surprising on Aldridge. I don't think they've maxxed out what they can do their in POR.

The Grizzlies have a distinct advantage over them the last couple of seasons since the series the Clippers won a few years ago

Damian Lillard has probably hit his ceiling unless he really puts in work and becomes a good defender. I don't know if he and Aldridge are going to win a title.

It looks like they hit on CJ McCullum though and Myers Leonard can be a match up nightmare at times. If they can bring back LA and Wes Matthews comes back healthy they could still be pretty good.

Not sure if championship contender good.

They were as good as anyone not named GSW imo last season when fully healthy. They need to add better complimentary pieces they've had a bottom 5 bench for years.

I think they needed Nic Batum to be the player everyone was hoping for. Wes Mathews coming off a pretty serious injury isn't really a promising sign either. I do like their team but I don't know how high their ceiling is.

Grizz are a good team but no threat to win it ever.

They're an elite scoring guard away from being a serious contender. It's been that way for a few years now.

Celebrating moral victories is a sure fire sign that you aren't a legitimate contender.

What is that celebrating? It is just proof that they aren't that far off.

Lakers are selling Aldridge by telling him they are trading for Boogie
