Well, one thing we can potentially look forward to is, in the event the Clippers do not "get blown out" and actually win the game tonight, we can be rather certain that you will not be back here to comment on it.

It will depend on if George opts in or opts out. He knows he’s a gone. Nothing else we can do. I’d bring back Harden and Westbrook back.

Get rid of Harden, PG, Westbrook, Tucker and Lue. I'd then trade Powell for a 1st rd pick

Has Harden ever been in the finals? Maybe as 6th man for the Thunder? His style of basketball (Iso) has no place in the post season.

Think how great it would have been to have Blake, DJ, Lou, etc. open the new building: guys we (I) actually enjoyed watching play, win or lose. Please, Steve, don't pollute it by having 213 and Big Game James and an age-ridden Russ on this roster next season. Actually PG can stay, since he's neutral. I can't think of any team I've followed that I dislike as much as this one. Even though I want them to win, I cannot STAND watching them play, and usually usually after a quarter or so, turn away and settle for the box score.

I think the biggest change will be to Kawhi’s injury diagnosis. I fully expect them to announce soon that he needs surgery because it’s worse than they have been saying.

We're in a terrible spot. A first round exit team with a star that hasn't had a healthy postseason in 4 years. The team has very little room to improve with no picks to allow for a rebuild. It seems like they are sticking with Lue as well. So where do we go from here? Run it back and hope that our star will be healthy for the first time in 5 years? Do they extend PG and Harden? Do they have a choice?

Do they have a choice? Yes they have a choice: stop throwing good money after bad. Let those guys go. They have been underperforming (whether due to injury or indifference) long enough.

The window has closed. The oldest rotation in the league will be yet another year older, no one in their right mind can invest anymore hope in Kawhi ever getting healthy and back to his pre-injury form, and the rest of the league is vibrant with youth and vitality that is just beginning to take shape and promises to yield a great new generation of stars and superstars. It's over. Time to think about the future. If there is still value in any of Kawhi, PG, and Harden, get what you can for them while you still can and start over.

You are also good at providing info about how many millions of dollars are inactive tonight on the bench.

That group is marred for me for a common reason this group is. They were often hurt in the playoffs too.
This current group is worse with injuries, but Griffin and Paul becoming unavailable was annoying then too.

Can't quite recall, but weren't there two Decembers where one of them went down; in one, LAC was (nearly?) undefeated, and the next they had a winning record as well. The playoffs weren't great, and with that group, I actually cared; I wanted to see them continue because they were great to watch. When this present group went out in the play-in, then in the first round, I hardly batted an eye.
