Revamped LA Clippers Boast Two-Way Depth

What do you guys think? Is it a Championship caliber?

IMO, if healthy. That's the main problem of the Clippers. A healthy roster. When I remember the health of players, it's always Kawhi Leonard who comes to my mind. Why? Well, despite having 2 rings, that dude has been in and out of the hospital. Cheesy

Without him, the Clippers are a big-small lineup. Harden makes the play, and either he shoots the ball or plays with a big man, Zubac or Lopez.
Is Beal really a good addition for them, or will it wreck their offensive plays? I think Beal needs to become a legit shooter who plays outside. Become like a wingman for Harden, and maybe it will work out for them.

That center position though, having Zubac and Lopez and I think this might be the first time in the last years that we see a team that have really a good center. And when the Lakers have problems giving AD center before, Clippers have two of the best. Although the Lakers have Ayton now and then Hayes as backup, but still it's not even match with Zubac and Lopez.

The problem with Clippers though is how to really blend this players together. Yeah, in paper they really look strong but still not winning enough games. So I will the coaching staff the blame if they can't get to a good spot this upcoming season.
