Nobody believed in the Clippers...Now, who's laughing? 

he have 4 hall OF famer

Right here with you bro

@@xxb3dr0ckxx7 Thanks

with you there. why would anyone think kawhi gonna get healthier when he becoming older and pg and harden suddenly not gonna fold when the lights are brightest again when clearly they arent in their prime anymore

" If" they stay healthy, they can beat anyone

Harden ate the injuries away.

“IF” they can stay healthy . Come on, + James Harden will choke once again

They were healthy in the bubble and blew a 3-1 lead but nobody remembers that I guess.

They're force to play due to the 65 game rule. 😂🤣

I agree. You can have a hof number during reg season but need to step it up during playoffs. So i gonna keep my judgement during that time

Russ does not fold in the playoffs he only loses bc he has bad teams after KD left

Exactly

​@@Maxjuliann 😂😂😂😂

@@Maxjuliannsince KD left, Russ has had playoff shooting splits of 39/30/78 and has averaged 4.6 turnovers. But stats aren’t everything as they don’t show how ass he was on defense for most of those years. Russ is one of my favorite players but he’s not a good playoff performer

Harden is my favorite player and there has been a false narrative about him for years. He has always been unselfish he just never had much help. He led in assist in 2017 and most years he is top 3. However this is the best team he’s ever had and everyone willing to sacrafjce makes this team incredible to watch.

Clippers gonna Clip.

Right!

@@bball3048mmExactly.

​@@bball3048mmyall keep hating on the Clippers but nobody stopping us Healthy

Agree ❤❤💯💯

in playoffs yea but regular season no

@@user-mp7pu1zq7p we'll see

That squad had ZERO defense, while this Clippers squad is slightly below the top 10. That team had Steve Nash past his prime (who was never a good defender, but his offense no longer overcame the D), Antawn Jamison, Jodie Meeks, and Steve Blake getting HUGE minutes (similar to the 2022 Lakers having washed up Melo (never a good defender, but what I said about Nash rings true for Melo in purple and gold), Malik Monk, Wayne Ellington, and past their prime versions of Ariza, DeAndre Jordan, Avery Bradley, and Kent Bazemore getting big minutes), while this team's two best players are still really good defenders while Amir Coffey is a pretty good three and D off the bench. Outside of the Nuggets they should beat anyone in the west (Minnesota has players who continuously disappoint in the playoffs like KAT and Rudy and OKC is just YOUNG), while in the east the Celtics are their biggest threat (Bucks D has gone way downhill after Budenholzer got fired, Embiid also disappoints in the playoffs, Knicks and Cavs don't have the star power the Clippers have, etc.). This is probably the Clippers' best chance at a title since 2021, when they had a STRONG chance of winning if Kawhi was healthy (the Jazz that year were like the 14-15 Hawks). 2020, if they beat the Nuggets, was still questionable as the Lakers had probably the most complete team in the league that year with LeBron and AD surrounded by athletic bigs (creating a strong pick and roll game with AD, Dwight, and Javale McGee), shooters, and defenders (KCP and Danny Green were probably the best three and D players that year, while Caruso was a great hustle player on D). It wouldn't have been unreasonable for them to still win it all with no bubble as they picked apart both the Bucks and Clippers shortly before lockdown. The way this Clippers team has come out of nowhere against bad teams like the Nets and Pistons is similar to the Warriors dynasty teams and the Kobe/Pau Lakers repeat teams (the 09-10 season Kobe was super clutch). Winning games when you are playing not even close to your best effort is the sign of a legit contender.

@@kevinestes9800 chill man don't have to put a whole essay 😂

@@Mali-jw6im your funny as hell

Worst trade in history are ruby golbert to the twolves and Kevin garnett to the nets

@@sting114 Those are some bad ones but they are not the worst. The Wolves are the best team in the west by record. The Lakers trading for 39 year old nash, giving up all those first round pics was pretty bad. They didn't even get the worst end of it. Bynum going to the 76ers with his bad knees was probably the worst trade that I can think of. Philly got screwed and they only had themselves to blame for it. Everyone knew Bynum had a history of knee problems and that the Lakers, who were high on him, were shipping him out to get Dwight Howard with a bad back. That should have been a huge red flag to the 76ers GM

nah, even if it didn't work out, clips didn't give up much. far from the worst trade ever

This will age poorly

@@Disneymagic24he’s not wrong tho , plus we know James Harden will choke again like he always does

​@@brucelau2023Thank you.

yall will be laughing at yourselves this June LOL

@@Disneymagic24put yo money where yo mouth is then

agreed, Kawi has hekp and the ball is moving well since harden adapted.

Spot on. And P.George is borderline

​@@TROYBALLERI thought he was talking about Paul George 😂 I guess there are at least three notorious playoff chokers in this team (and I thought he meant Kawhi and Paul 😅)

@@Epupify Khawi is a proven playoff Superstar and 🏆winner, everybody no,s this! Harden and Playoff P, and even Westbrook are all playoff non performers in there careers. So that is NOT a good sign 4 clipper supporters

@@TROYBALLER I know how good Kawhi is and the hof performances he put on in the Spurs and Raptors's title runs, but not sure if people also blamed him for underperforming in the bubble or some other playoff series with the clippers.

Neither is the star player tho

The Clippers are better than the Suns. They only lost that series last year was due to injuries. Now the Clippers are even better

Suns are gping to struggle in the playoffs since they have no point guard for when the game slows down . Ppl say book can play point but he doesnt have a Pg mentality he is a scorer

imagine a clippers vs knicks finals

@@tabletuser123 dream matchup

Yep. They can finally put the champagne away and get out the bottled water because that's all they'll drink on their flight to Cancun.

I, as many, thought they were the team to beat this season because of Lillard. But when I learned how bad their defense has gotten, coming from one of the top defensive teams up until last season, i'm sure they aren't getting far in the playoffs, no matter how dominant they manage to be in the regular season. Favorable match ups will only get them so far, but put them against the Celtics or even the Heat if they get better, and it's guaranteed that will be the end of their playoff run.

Mike korzemba inadvertently made one when he discussed the clippers being cursed haha

We all get together and help kawhi to pray for them championship this year please i heard from kawhi he believes in god for give less

2 Former MVPs, PG who was top 3 MVP voting at one point and easily a superstar and a 2x FINALS MVP in Kawhi. That's fuckin insane

lol

Those are not all that. 11:31 is though.

I think they need to focus on Canadian born players and international players because it seems like Americans don’t want to stay in Toronto unfortunately

Not from what I saw tonight

Harden has had numerous good post seasons
