    It's gonna be one helluva training camp duel between Kris Dunn and Bones Hyland for the backup point guard spot, IMO Kris Dunn has the size advantage at 6'3 6'4 205lb with a 6'9 wingspan with an elite perimeter defensive pedigree. Your sleeping on Kris Dunn but the Clippers coach staff and management know actually what they have and he's a keeper KD8!🦍

      @_AVC_ Hell naw you just don't know what was really going on in Utah with Kris Dunn he should have been the starting point guard from day one of that season but the Jazz were shopping THT & Jordan Clarkson so they put Dunn on the back burner minutes wise until they literally had no choice but to start him over THT & Keyonte George then they folded and completely started their Tank and handed Keyonte George his starting spot. Kris Dunn is a All NBA defensive team level player and is about to go crazy for the Clippers who are a true veteran team that value their premier talents especially their vet's 😉

    If I’m honest, we REALLY need an expansion. The trailblazers currently somehow have depth at EVERY position with like seemingly too many gaurds AND too many centers. And the league isn’t seeing enough of the bottom of the end of the team players being able to perform…

    Love the vid!
    I see many people say that the PG loss isn't that "big" because they lost only the 3rd option (Because Harden can be a second option).
    PG is a 2nd option, Harden is barley a third option now. Yes he will be better, yes he is ball dominant, but he can't play defense, he cand get to the rim the way he used to. PG is an Elite two way wing, and he is way healthier than Kawhi...
    If they lose many games this year (which I think they do), maybe try to trade Kawhi to the thunder. OKC get a great Vet, with championship exp, can play with and without other stars, can help you keep a defensive and offensive Identity, and adds size to the wing position. It can be a Win now move, while all you give back to the clippers is some of their picks back, salary fillers, and maybe a Topic or Dieng...
    I think it is very logical, but I don't see it happening for two reasons:
    1. The clippers won't do it because it is admitting the PG trade wasn't good.
    2. OKC will want to keep the picks, hope the clippers will be VERY BAD anyways, and get the picks for themselves

    Great content again. These vids really help understand where teams are really at.
    I think the Clippers will be OK this year. Obviously a lot depends on the health of Harden and Kawhi, but I think Jones and Porter are nice pickups and as you mentioned, are on good contracts. Also Zubac is underrated. Porter could really surprise - if he gets it together, he could be a real difference maker on this team.

    The long wait has finally come. You have them as the 13th seed and that’s exactly where i have them as well. Nobody’s questioning the talent on paper they have right but the big key to the clippers is health. They just lost paul george for absolutely nothing (looking back at the okc trade they got fleeced), now they were able to sign some role players because he left however losing paul george is still huge. Like u say hes the allstar role player who can do everything solid. Then we see kawhi this offseason already pull out of the olympics due to health concerns and if the clippers arent doing well to start i just dont think kawhi will be on the court at all. I think this could be one of them kawhis Mia for the yr.
    Looking at these comments talking about how the clippers just built a new arena so they wont sell. Well lets be real if kawhis not on the court then u got no fans. And if hes not on the court then the clippers aint good then u might as well sell for assets. I hear people bring up the idea of even a possible kawhi trade which to me i find unlikely. I think his health is really a big deal, i cant imagine him anywhere other than L.A tbh and also i dont see too much being given up for him. Not saying its lackluster return but its not gonna be like a star level package.
    That first trade u made assuming the clippers are winning and make a winning move i like the idea of adding grant. Lengthy wing who can defend and shoot is something thats needed as they lack size and need people who can score.
