Did I do everything right? First time making one of these. :D

Also :shock:
* Paul's assist-to-turnover margin of 6.45 to one would the best single-season ratio since the NBA started keeping turnovers as a statistic in 1977.

In the Clippers' 120-100 win Saturday against New Orleans, Paul recorded 18 points and 16 assists in 30 minutes with only two turnovers.

I don't find these guys quite as annoying as the current Rockets, but they're close. CP3 flops like a fish out of water, and Blake is kind of a punk-ass who acts like he wants a fight but then always gets held back. They're a good team but they look very beatable this year. I think we can take them. They have a horrible swingman/SF rotation this year and I think our positions of strength line up well against their weaknesses on D. I don't know how we are going to slow down Blake; he'll manhandle Markieff. So he'll probably have a monster game against us. But we should be able to somewhat limit CP3 and their other guards such as Crawford.

Interested to see if Len faces up against DeAndre Jordan, and if so, how he does against him.

I think Len bothered him last time due to his length. I was quite happy with how Len performed against their front line last time.

Plumlee is just not an NBA starting center. He hasn't really progressed any since the beginning of last year.
