If you even ask me to choose between Bradley Beal and Klay Thompson, I'd choose Beal. That guy is a legit scorer.

Nostradamus, this would have been a tougher comparison..or what do you think? ?

Klay Thompson scored 60 points in 3 quarters on eleven dribbles. Better and more versatile defender. Beal is good but Klay is a game changer, playing alongside other great players makes him less appreciated but one can argue hes just as important as steph to the warriors. If you have any doubts, ask OKC. Klay can single-handedly win a game on his day. Among SGs, only harden is better.

And every NBA lovers,y'all opinion's needed!

Beal but not by much. His game just seems a bit more refined, and hes a lot more consistent. Not as good a defender as Vic but an underrated defender nonetheless. I think hes easily a better facilitator as well, at least in my eyes.

After all of you slept on the Mavs in the off-season you're all beginning to see the light. I'm just waiting for Luka and KP to build that pick and roll chemistry
Lol be like you're mistaking me for someone else. Anyway it's too early and this team is still ridiculously over reliant on Luka but the potential is there

This is not remotely close and the difference is by a gulf..Klay is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than Beal, infact there should be no level of comparison on both ends of the court. Klay is a tier 1 or 2 superstar, some may argue tier 1 conclusively and they will be absolutely right in my books.

I will still pick Klay but I'm just saying this would have been a tougher comparison...

Oh Wow!! So the greatest assembled team gets to lose to the Raptors grin without Lowry and Ibaka... Wow, guess y'all have come crashing back to earth. This Raptors team is nothing near the team that got lucky against GSW, but yet the disrespect to the GSW was just too much. Welcome back to earth guys. Tell us now how Raptors have the better coach, better team, and better individual players. grin grin grin

Then again, you guys should only get lucky not to make the conference finals, my Clippers will do a clean sweep. I cannot wait for the young Warriors to feast on this stacked team as well.

Just one game aye? We should not be too quick to judge grin grin

Someone said the lakers are the greatest team ever assembled?


You are right though, the clippers will sweep. The warriors? Those guys cant win even if they tried. LOL!

Surprised this is the only new clippers fan that has turned up, expecting to see more join the bandwagon soon.

Yes you read right. The greatest team ever assembled. 2 of the top 5 players in one team, not like they were drafted by the same team. I repeat the greatest team ever assembled.

I mean we'll sweep the Lakers. Or should I take it your stacked team is not looking to make the conference finals? Or probably we'll sweep your stacked team before The finals. Welcome back to earth y'all

This isnt the first time 2 top five players were put together. If you dont want to include the warriors you should google kobe and shaq. They are all time greats and they played on the same team in their prime. They are still not the greatest team ever assembled. Basketball you'll come to learn is not that simple.


LMAO I've been saying how the lakers are not as good as the clippers, i dont know whats new about that or how thats coming back down to earth. One second they are the greatest team assembled and the next you are so sure the clippers who actually have a case for that title will beat them black and blue. You flip flop more than a fry chef.

We are the better team, definitely. But not stacked team.. grin grin. Stacking a team does not mean that team has to be the better team. Ask Bron what happened with D.Rose, Isaiah Thomas, D.Wade and the rest grin grin

DRAFTED at least one of the 2. Ohh I forgot Bron was drafted by the Lakers. Sorry, my mistake grin grin

I take it now that Kawhi is better than Bron, and PG13 is better than AD.. forget the rest of the team.. It's these 4 I want to compare.

What difference does it make whether one was drafted or not? What kind of take is this?

So a team is made up of 4 players now, with two on each side?


Young man, you see in basketball, every roster has up to 12 players. How good they are across the board determines how good the team is.

The problem with you is that you are confused and you keep contradicting yourself. "The lakers are the greatest team assembled but we are a better team and we will beat them". WTF?


The clippers, the new team you joined a few months ago are the better team and you will beat the clippers. Simple.
