The Lakers Aren't Going to Make the Western Conference Finals This Year.

The Clippers are built to defend better, obviously, than others. But if you look at the numbers, that was mostly offensive rebounds and free throws. I think one of the reasons I didn't love the go-bear trade was because by the time Edwards becomes the guy we know he's going to be, unless he gets hurt, go-bears can be like 35. And they need him to basically need Edwards to be that 25 year old Edwards this year. That's five years from now. So much of the Minnesota piece depends on what happens with Edwards over the next three years. We all know deep down. Towns can't be the guy but Edwards could.
