After a torturous and sobering two road losses against the Nuggets and the Timberwolves, the Clippers split the first two games of their much-needed five-game homestand against the Hawks and the Mavericks. I for one am extremely satisfied with this result. Beggars can’t be choosers. We were literally on a six-game losing streak till Tuesday…

I’m tired of writing about Clippers’ losses, but here we are. After these two heartbreaking losses against the Nuggets and Timberwolves, the Clippers are teetering on the precipice of the playoffs- currently the 7th seed, but only 1.5 games from missing the play-in. It feels like the Nuggets have had our number since the bubble…

It feels like the same recurring story rears its ugly head whenever the Clippers play. The Clippers are down a sizable lead but manage to fritter away at it until they’ve actually taken the lead themselves. It’s a total false sense of security however, as the opposing team invariably manages to pull away in the…

A superstar talent that has been relegated to a smaller role amidst career-altering injuries is an archetype we see in the league often. Demarcus Cousins will sign a non-guaranteed deal to join the defending NBA Champions, the Milwaukee Bucks. If you’ve been following the NBA for long enough, you might be rolling your eyes: “First…

During the 2018-2019 season, Kyle Kuzma thrived under the tutelage of Lebron James. Kuzma achieved his career-high of 41 points against the Detroit Pistons in January of 2019. We all assumed he’d be an ascendent young talent- comparable to Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics. However, with the acquisition of superstar Anthony Davis in the…

The Lakers have added Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony, this offseason, at LeBron James’ behest. The King. Year-19. His vision holds sway within the organization, and this is a prime example. LeBron would repudiate these types of accusations. He’s just a player and has marginal voice in the management. But we know. And we also…

LA Clippers re-sign Kawhi Leonard to a 4-year, $176.3 million max deal. However, it would be remiss to ignore point guard Reggie Jackson’s re-signing after his breakout postseason. By signing both Leonard and Jackson to long-term deals, the Clippers have extended their championship window. Reggie Jackson has agreed to a two-year $22 million deal to…

A tumultuous crowd counting from 1-10, placing Giannis Antetokounmpo, an already inconsistent free throw shooter, under time pressure. A student of behavioral science would’ve told him to eliminate conscious thought and allow the subconscious to access the automated muscle memory of a free throw. And Giannis’ subconscious was telling him to run the entire court…

Phoenix Suns Chris Paul scored 41 points in a 130-103 Suns victory against Paul George’s LA Clippers Game 6 last Wednesday, making way for his first finals appearance. Chris Paul and NBA Finals? Those words typically don’t go together. But it captures how weird the playoffs have been this year. This Western Conference Final between…
