I’ve been seeing a lot of people saying “The harden trade would make the clippers win the championship if this was 2018” but I started thinking- is that actually true? Say you take 2018 Russ, PG, Harden, and Kawhi and surround them with the rest of the 2023 Clippers supporting cast- would they beat the 2018 warriors in a 7 game series?

Bro we were gonna lose to the Rockets if it weren’t for refs and luck. And that was with a slightly worse version of harden. Sure the Clippers have worse synergy than that ungodly rockets team, but their talent is just too much. Kawhi as a second option/1b, Russ as a third option, and PG as the 4th best player is disgusting.

Iggy was on the level of Paul George and Kawhi before the Warriors. He was a max player.

So I would say the top 5 of Warriors were better if all healthy. Steph, Klay, Dray, KD and Iggy.

Iggy on the level of Kawhi in both their primes????

Just stick to posting about Russ lol

yeah but the question isn't prime versions of GSW players, it's 2018 GSW vs 2018 versions of PG, Kawhi, Harden and Westbrook.

But even if it was the prime of every player on 2018 gsw the win will still go to clippers, its MITWESTBROOK this mf said prime iggy was on prime PG13 lvl this insane.
