Clippers Rise Up!!

If you have read my previous blogs, you may have stumbled upon the fact by now that my favourite team is the Los Angeles Clippers. I have also mentioned how they may be cursed because they have won absolutely no championships or even conference championships. How sad :/

This year, they are making themselves look promising, despite the fact that we have no star players. We still fight and strive for greatness at every game. The Clippers are surprising the league and not a lot of people are discussing them because they are the Clippers, when you think of them you think of a garbage can. Well, they can think all they want right now, because my team, the Los Angeles Clippers are currently at the #1 seed in the Western Conference.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


Nobody, not even me, would think we would be this good this season. I honestly had no expectations what so ever, I did not care about this season as much in the beginning, because our team is currently rebuilding, with the help of our GM, Jerry West. Let me just say that Jerry West has been doing us great so far. He helped us pick up and draft Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. This rookie is already on our starting lineup and proved that he is another really good fit for the team. So with that, we can rely on Jerry West to make smart decisions for us. Now, what do I personally think helped us become a better team? Well, to me it seems like our old roster had many chemistry problems, specifically with Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and Deandre Jordan. The spurt of the chemistry issues may have revolved around the fact that the coaches son was on the team, and a sense of biases was in the air.

But now that the son has gone to the Washington Wizards, and we picked up great players, we seem to be balling out this season. I am happy with where we are right now and how we have been doing lately. We even beat top-tier teams such as the Warriors, Bucks, Nuggets, and more. Now for the future, we never know what may happen. Our GM may be working on getting Kawhi Leanard because Leanard wants to go to LA but not on the Lakers. I found that statement pretty interesting. All in all, this surprising to witness. Now I just hope that our team can stay healthy and consistently strong. If we can maintain our ground, then we may make deep runs in the future.
