3. What are the team's biggest weaknesses?
I wish I knew, I really do.
All of the bullets under strengths can just as well come down here and be listed under weaknesses. There's just no way to know how these pieces fit together.
To that end, I think you have to list chemistry as a weakness, at least for now. Maybe everything will click right away. Who knows? It's worth noting that we use this term 'chemistry', implying an ...

Two seasons ago they were a darling, last season they took a slight step back (but enough of a step to fall just short of the postseason), and now they'll find themselves struggling to reach 11th place in the West. Welcome back, lottery balls; the Bay's missed you. Predicted Record: 30-52 Los Angeles Clippers [ Clips Nation ] And then there's the question of health. Can these guys stay on the court? The marquee additions, Baron and Camby, have been injury-prone throughout their careers (although both were ...
