Los Angeles Clippers

Our power rankings introduction is, for one week only, about to change. Most of the time, we wax distasteful snark that recaps all of the NBA’s major happenings over the past week, an approach aimed at teaching a crash course in almost everything you need to know. This week, though, you only need to know one [...]

I’ve got a secret. Can you keep it? Cool, because here it is: The Warriors are fire. Crazy, right? But not really. Some other crazily un-crazy things to consider: The Spurs have been in “God” mode since 1997; the Cavaliers are the most disappointing title contender at the moment; the Pacers do not miss Roy [...]

The Los Angeles Clippers’ topsy-turvy 2015-16 season has now reached full “Well, jeez” status. Prior to the Clippers’ Wednesday night loss to the Indiana Pacers, coach and president Doc Rivers revealed that the rib injury All-Star point guard Chris Paul suffered against the Portland Trail Blazers two nights before would keep him sidelined for at [...]

More than a month into the 2015-16 NBA regular season, everything is just as we thought it would be. LOL, jk. Much about the league’s landscape does make sense. The Warriors are godlike. The Spurs are right behind them. No one in the Eastern Conference can touch the Cavaliers. Not much else makes sense, though. [...]

Things got weird in the Denver Nuggets’ loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night. Late in the game, Nuggets head coach Mike Malone exchanged verbal jabs with both Blake Griffin and his own rookie, Emmanuel Mudiay. The two incidents kind-of-sort-of happened simultaneously. First, Malone received a technical for getting into it with Griffin [...]

Come one, come all, you’re just in time to take part in the first NBA power rankings of the holiday season! This is big stuff, I know, so we’ll get right to it. A lot is happening now that the 2015-16 season is hitting its stride. The Warriors are still the Warriors; the Pacers are [...]

For a short while on Thursday night, it looked like the Golden State Warriors, trailing by as many as 23 points to the Los Angeles Clippers, were going to lose. They didn’t lose. They fought back. They flew around on the offensive end in the second half. Stephen Curry went off. Andre Iguodala hit big [...]

It’s good that Draymond Green and J.J. Redick aren’t on the same team, because they’re certainly not on the same page. Ahead of Thursday night’s tilt between the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers, both were asked about the rivalry that’s been brewing between these two sides. Their answers weren’t completely divergent, but they [...]

It seems that someone forgot to tell the Houston Rockets that the NBA’s 2015-16 regular season is underway. The early part of 2015-16 has no doubt been weird. Some of the usual juggernauts are juggernauting, but this year’s landscape is rife with early-season underachievers, the fast-plummeting Rockets being among them. Can Houston regain its 2014-15 [...]

Donald Sterling is the former owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. And he’s going to stay that way. Donald Sterling, who was essentially show the door by the NBA after he was recorded making obscene and disgusting racist remarks, lost an appeal that he filed to regain the team after his estranged wife, Shelly Sterling, [...]
