Celtics and Kings ?

Paul George might have just suffered an ACL injury. Hopefully it's just a hyperextension. I don't know, it didn't look good.

[Flagrant Fowl]

How quickly things can change... He was helped to the locker room. I think he's out for several weeks even if he's lucky enough to not have torn anything.

That Paul George injury fucking sucks man

Celtics and Kings ?

I was joking. Obviously it will be a Suns/Bucks rematch.

I know we just lost to them, but I wouldn’t hate if the Thunder got up to number 5

Same. I'd probably rather face the Clips if PG13 is injured, but other than that, I would love to face OKC in the first round. They're a good young team, but I absolutely think we'd smoke them if we have Book and KD healthy. Much rather face OKC than the Warriors or Mavs.

[Split T]

I think we’d even beat them without KD. I’d feel good bringing him along slowly in that series. But ya, LAC without PG is also not a bad draw.

[Superbone]

I'd prefer OKC of the two teams. No question for me.

Rough situation for the Clips. They've waited for years for their Kawhi / PG13 core to actually be healthy at the same time and it's never materialized. Now it seems to be threatened again. If they rush George back, he could reinjure it and doom their team for years to come. But if they rest him, there's no way they come out of the West. Knowing the Clippers, they'll rush him back and take stupid risks with his health. Hope he'll be okay.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Whenever I think the Suns are cursed, I remember the Los Angeles Clippers exist.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Paul George is an irreplaceable talent, but the Clippers have enough depth to be a tough out for pretty much anyone. However, they’re inevitably going to lean on Westbrook too much and we’ve all seen that movie several times.

[Split T]

I forgot about Westbrook…ya that’s not great for them

[Flagrant Fowl]

Tone Deaf would've been more accurate.

Tone Deaf would've been more accurate.

Yeah, let's hope they make some money off of his transgressions.

No. It'll be Suns and Sixers.

Lulu gets mad when he doesn't get his way.
