From being a contender getting Kawhi and Paul George in 2019, not to mention two more MVPs in Westbrook and James Harden and still they head to another reset for the franchise. Where do the Clippers go from here?
Clippers dodged a bullet by not giving George the 4 years $220 million that he wanted. Clippers got better with Derick jones , Kevin porter, batum , mo bamba, and soon to be a clippers tyus jones . In 2 years, clippers will have two max slots to go shopping. Future looks bright for Steve ballmer
What's up Bro....this bronny James thing is outta control...you might wanna do an emergency Livestream to address it .... btw you might wanna try that a (Livestream)might be different....adds another level to your channel 👍👍👍
Kris Dunn is going to bring a new culture and era to the Clippers similar to how Tony Allen brought to Memphis, the Lock 🔐City Clippers era is OTW @IntuitDome & KD8 is going to finally make a NBA All Defensive Team in 2024-2025 🔥
Everybody from that Starting 5 (except for Ray Allen) has been milking that 2008 run. Ray-Ray is the only one who puts that period in its proper perspective.
Toronto got serious bang for their bucks with kawhi for that magical season. He had the season that Toronto wished Vince Carter could’ve had. Injury bug is undefeated though! ⏰
I didn't think they'd make any noise in the playoffs at all. I knew Kawhi couldn't stay healthy the entire year,let's face it,fam,Kawhi is just injury prone. And I don't see tha-CLIPS doing anything in this up coming season,Kawhi will have health issues this nba season once again,Harden or Westbrook has to go tho.
Why? He got a ring playing against a warriors team so injured they were picking fans from the stands to fill in spots. He didn’t do anything special there
@@gman9336 Kevin Durant injured out for series, klay injured and out for series, looney injuries and out for series, injuries where players missed games: iggy, cousins to name a few. I know it probably sucks to be wrong but if you want to continue lying to yourself, have at it!
lol so Kawhi Leonard literally telling the Clippers to trade for PG or he’s not going there & holding the Raptors hostage as well isn’t taking the easy way out but Lebron joining Miami was? Okay man
The Clippers sacrificed the decade in hopes that the Kawhi and Paul George duo would work out. They won’t have control of their own 1st round pick till 2030
As a clippers fan it’s a bummer. We were doomed from the start cuz it’s unnatural to just buy players and star hunt immediately. Ur supposed to build through the draft
You criticize guys like LeBron and KD for "taking the easy way," but criticize guys like Mitch Richmond and Vince Carter for not "taking the easy way." Pick a hill.
The Clippers can’t catch a break. They couldn’t win a championship during the Lob City area & couldn’t win with Kahwi, Paul George, Russell Westbrook & James Harden.
I'm not gonna lie I was hoping the Clipperz did something special last year because I am a fan of both Kawhi and Westbrook. Last year's failure meant that things had to change and I am glad Paul George landed on his feet in a good situation with the 76ers. So as a Clippers fan we will se how things go going forward.
One underrated factor that stunted the clippers is the clippers neglecting the draft process. Even when they traded SGA n all the picks they had a chance to get Claxton in 2019, Xavier Tillman 2020, Ayo/Herb jones 2021, 2023 GG Jackson. Those pass ups were awful even without hindsight and the clippers were just too in love with making splashy moves.
@@sirjohnlegion2691 Fr though lol. I get what he means, but he never stood out as a solid overall player to really have a "prime" moment. A good defensive role player at best lol
Been a fan of the clippers since I was 11 which was 2011. Needless to say this past decade has been so rough I might be done watching basketball all together 😂
I am sorry, but the easy way out he told the Clippers to go get PG or he wasn't signing with them, he would just join the Lakers. Also Lebron could have truly taken the true easy way and signed with the Celtics coming off a 7 games final lost against the Lakers a la KD
I called it when Kawhi left Toronto. It’s not easy to throw together a team and repeat as champions. Has anyone interviewed Uncle Dennis to get his thoughts?
The Clippers are on of the three teams I am a fan of (#3), so I was so hype when Kawhi and PG joined the Clippers (especially cuz Kawhi is my favorite player of this passing era). But the injury issues and underachieving when they did play was terrible. Everybody wants to blame Doc Rivers for all that, but outside of Kawhi (who has stayed injured for literally half of his Clippers run and playoffs) all the players that Rivers failed with didn't win anything before of after him, most failing spectacularly. I could go through the list but I challenge anybody to find me a player that doesn't fit that description.
But when Giannis was losing in Milwaukee, Stunted was the biggest hater and swore he wouldn't win without leaving the Bucks. Go watch that video lol the old heads don't even know what to complain about 😂
Clippers keep failing because they are in LA. It's a Lakers town, meaning when players join the Clippers they don't feel the pressure to win it all plus there is no strong Clipper fanbase. All you have to do is play basketball, collect money and enjoy LA. They were healthy in 2020 and blew 3-1 lead in Rivers style.
Easyway out huh this guy have an easy career cause of spurs big3 and one of the greatest coach of all time KD have a great team too back in okc but lebron didnt have a great team back in his first 7 years in cavs so yeah lebron have all the right to create his own team to win a ring! He earn that! Dont act like a lone superstar can win a ring by himself
Kawhi “only” won due to Klay and Kevin getting hurt . Let’s not act like that wasn’t a factor . That said , I was happy he did win and wished he had stayed there to at least run it back .
Kawhi is a better business man than basketball player. I think he only plays at 90% or better and he knows his worth but then again he probably does have terrible knees😢
lol you could of just had a 10 sec video showing that thumbnail and that would be enough of an explanation. Four BUMS. What do you expect from garbage? Kawhi obviously a little different, but the dude has also not accomplished anything outside of the stacked spurs team he was on (he beat a warriors team so injured that they were recruiting fans from the stands to fill roles and play in the finals)
LeBron James didn't take the easy way out and if this video is going to talk about players like KD taking the easy way out then this same post needs to talk about all the other teams historically in basketball who have took the easy way out to win championships and most of the teams that have won championships in NBA history have been superteams
