Other than the Clippers this season, only 3 other teams won 45+ games with no All-Star: 03-04 Memphis Grizzlies (lost 0-4 in the first round) 15-16 Charlotte Hornets (lost 3-4 in the first round) 13-14 Phoenix Suns (missed the playoffs) Denver won 46 games in 2017-2018 with no All-Star. Jokic made it the following year in 2018-2019. |

Memphis won 46 games in 2010-2011 with no All-Star. Marc Gasol or Zach Randolph could have made it, but didn't.

The 2000-2001 Rockets with a Steve Francis / Cutino Mobley led team had a 45-37 record and missed the playoffs in the 2nd of 4 years of mediocrity and missing the playoffs. Francis had yet to make an all-star team. He needed his buddy's Yao ming votes from China to finally make it.... |

(Even though he didn't make it that year) Yeah, I thought mistwell's post was about someone having an All-Star in that current year. If you want to talk about teams that had former or future All-Stars, then that expands things too much, IMO. Portland had 2 former All-Stars off the bench, with Brandon Roy and Gerald Wallace, in this game: www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/201102270POR.htmlInteresting quirk, but not that meaningful IMO. |

I would put that Houston team, along with some of the other ones I mentioned, in the past few posts. I'd add that Houston team to that list, as they didn't have a current All-Star. |

My post was a copy and paste from a Tweet I saw. It's accurate but misleading, as noted it's not counting teams which had former all-stars and future all-stars. Of course, if Gallinari some day becomes an all-star, or Williams, or SGA, or Shamet, does that move us back off the list?

Of course, if Gallinari some day becomes an all-star, or Williams, or SGA, or Shamet, does that move us back off the list? Well, if trying to compile a list without former or future All-Stars, then the Hornets should be removed, since Kemba Walker would become a future All-Star. I think the ones without any current All-Stars is more interesting, since that is more relevant to the season for that respective team. If someone had a 38 year old that used to be an All-Star, or a rookie who would later become an All-Star in a future year, then it should also count. But yes, going by the list from the Tweet, if Williams, Harrell, Gilgeous-Alexander, or Shamet become All-Stars, then it would remove it from that list compiled by the Tweet. |

Here's an interesting article on what it would take to walk the line and get the best possible seeding results for us: LINK |

Fuck the blowout. I still want the Rockets in the 1st round. 1 bad game in the regular season doesn’t define our season.
Mistwell: quit getting triggered and come up with a clever comeback instead of acting like the keyboard police. It’s obviously not working.

What's to come back with, he's just shouting at people (and I didn't see you take him on directly either). You don't be clever with guys who do that, you tell them to calm their shit down or step outside until they can handle their drink better. Which Nuraman did. And he might not think "point taken" is an apology, but it obviously was. I think he's calmed his shit down, finally. |

Nuraman addressed everyone including you not to type in capital letters (like you did as well) so I guess you had to calm down? It wasn't an apology either if you knew anything it was just an acknowledgement "Man to Man" that I heard him and understand. You respect people who give you respect. He didn't call me out of my name either. You try so hard to twist the truth man. I am not here to troll because there are so many things in life that are way more serious than a freaking basketball game. Lighten up young fella....let your hair down...kick yo feet up!! Clipps...I am all for the 1st round matchup....I keep saying you need superstars to win in the playoffs..... |
