The Clippers use to be the sorriest team in the NBA. and as u can see they are improving. its been years since they made the playoffs.

If the Clippers DON'T win--I'm hoping they give those cocky jerks (wow, that was phrasing it nicely...!) a run for their money...! Between Raja Bell and Steve Nash, I'm actually getting ILL from watching them! Clippers have come back with a "bang" this year, and it would be a true Cinderella story to see them beat the "Mvp's" team and earn a chance to go to the Conference Finals!!! I guess you can say I'm partial to the Clippers winning (and who'd of thought--someone from San Antonio being PARTIAL to an L.A team..?)!

They haven't done much the last few years. They had 16 wins last year, and didn't beat anyone noteable. They had more losses than wins the three years before that. They had a good run several years ago, but they haven't come close to doing that since then. Unless you are a big powerhouse like Duke, it's hard to stay on top of college basketball for more than a couple years.

The Orlando Magic. The rough years with Tracy Mcgrady and Steve Francis are over.  The midseason trades worked wonders for this team adding Trevor Ariza, Darko Milicic and Carlos Arroyo. This team is young and talented and have very good chemistry all around. Two 20 year old, "superstar potential", 7 footers in Dwight and Darko in the post is a force to be reckoned with for a decade. With this team they have fought back into the playoff race after they looked like they were left for dead at 20-40. They have gone 15-4 in the last 19 games, Won 11 out of 12, and are riding a 7 game winning streak. In that span they have beaten the Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons, Miami Heat, and the San Antonio Spurs.

This season it has been the Clippers. They have a all-around strong team. Chris Kaman has come out and played really well at center. Sam Cassel and Elton Brand are just great players. The Lakers have depended on Kobe for too much of the season, that is why they lost against the Suns...because he didn't shoot well in the second half. This season the Staples Center belongs to the Clippers

No, but don't count them out, they score a lot of points but so do the other teams. They have to get some D from somewhere. Every champ within the last five years have had D, Lakers, Spurs, Detroit, all of them had it. They got to get it.

The Detroit Pistons are the best in the NBA, bar none.  They have stopped the Spurs twice already this year; their offense is runnin' wild now - Flip has let the reins loose on the offensive side (something that Brown never did!) and it shows.  Meanwhile, their D is and always has been, stellar.  They have kicked it up a notch and none of the other teams can compete when the Pistons bring it to them.  Another reason is that they're so deep - the bench is almost ANOTHER starting team!  Joe Dumars has been quite excellent in putting this team together.  Watch for the Pistons to run deep in the playoffs this year, yet again, and quite possibly run the table!

The ABC commentaters were actually talking about this issue during the last Laker game at home.  According to them, both teams go down the same hallway, but the Clippers turn one way and the Lakers turn another way.  Sounds like they may be right next to each other, but obviously in between walls.  I did hear that both coaches' offices are in fact side by side.

They're trying to find an identity.  Staudimare isn't in basketball shape yet, then you have Barbosa and Diaw still doing the same things they did last year.  They'll have to tailor their game to best fit the team.  Plus they have to find a role for Jalen Rose.  They'll be fine by January.  Their chemistry is kinda all over the place right now, but so are a lot of other teams out there.  No need to worry, its only November.

If they get lucky, third round, get knocked off by the Spurs. (They get lucky by beating Phoenix, Clippers should beat Denver, so the two LA teams meet in second round, Lakers win in 6 with a bit of luck). They can get no further, no matter how much luck they have. And even getting this far is pushing it. Realistically, lose to Phoenix in 6.

the Clippers are a pretty good team, they made it pretty big in the playoffs this season, and maybe they do have a chance..with Elton Brand and Sam Cassell there.. they could really go a long way, especially with Cassell's good leadership..only flaw: he kinda talks too much sometimes and he's too relaxed when bringing the ball: he even got called for an 8-second violation once! but nonetheless, the Clippers are a great team, and I think they would deserve to win this if and when it happens.

Mike Dunlevy - he did it with the Lakers in the 70's and just now with the Clippers.  Go Clippers!

Obviously they arent that great of a team. They didn't make the playoffs. they have one great player, Allen Iverson, but their team sucks.

whats not to like. honestly i dont pay any attention to them but i know they are a good team. They seem to have good fundamentals and good teamwork. The NBA Team that they beat were the Toronto Raptors, and even though their record sucks, thats an NBA Team no matter what someone says.

I do. They're the defending champs and have even done better than last year by just setting a franchise record 63 wins and they are showing no signs of slowing down. Duncan and Ginobili are all healthy now. Their playoff experience and deep bench will lead them to another championship this year.
