I keep forgetting Kawhi exists
DANG THE NBA IS REAL DRY 😂😂 who cares about the clippers and basketball 🏀 😂 srry this is FOOTBALL SEASON AND COLORADO BUFFS!! And the raiders are HUGE NEWS!!❤
Very interesting how the clippers are gonna about load managing now.
Sent the Clippers to China or Seatle, NOBODY WANTS THEM IN LA!
Do y’all remember the hype on this team from the media the first season ? 😭😭😭😭
Kawhi “Mr. Load Management” Leonard 😅
ESPN commentators are trash now….. Unwatchable
The Clippers just need to start all over from scratch, AGAIN 😂
As a Laker fan. Just glad we got rid of Russell. His great hard work and effort can never make up for reading floor and making the right play consistently….did I say and in the Clutch!! he's not clutch he's just a great player but not a winner and there is a difference. Clipper fans gonna learn fat meat is greasy.
Can the clipper optimism stop already? Why are they given such a benefit of doubt.
how does nba today have the heat at 5??? giannis had an knee surgery, the celtics are brand new team unproven without smart, THE CAVS? the ones that choked in madison square guarden AINT NO WAY, the knicks oh lord ahhahaahahah LOL
Clippers don’t talk!!!! Period!!! Any report about what the Clippers are planning is a lie. Facts. Clippers organization doesn’t leak.
Everybody talking……. Ballmer is a baller. What y’all think should be done don’t mean jack. Clippers don’t talk don’t care what y’all think. The lakers only think about what y’all think.
Lakers have been a play-in team two years straight and nothing has changed
Pacific division is stacked
2 soft as charmin-overplayed players
Okay, what duo would be better? 😅
Loved this clip😂👏🏼😂👏🏼😂
Can YouTube make a “heart reaction” already
We all know deep down they only have Russ there to be a scapegoat for kawhi and pg if they don’t succeed
Balmer will never give up Kawhi or Pg
I might be in the super minority but IF Kawhi and PG are healthy, I like them to contend for a championship. That’s the biggest IF in recent NBA history though
PG and Kawhi being a max players is laughable.
I can see them both getting traded this year
Chiney wins the cutest/best personality award on ESPN
Great content and I thank you for breaking it down!! Despite the unstable crypto market. I'm still Glad 🙂 I can smile back at my portfolio of $82,700 made from my $6k weekly trade within a short period.
Time to trade Kawhi.
This guys pg and kawhi will never get it done in LA. They should have just traded them this year.
The steaks 🥩 are smoking Marijuana.
Who is kwahi Leonard ?
Lakers > Denver > Suns
The answer is no
I dont think a Healthy Clippers team can Beat the Nuggets in Denver WCF. Thats the Problem with the Clippers… as Soon as they get there, they need to WIN IT ALL.
Why are we listening to lakers news during a clipper’s segment⁉️
I love how Luka is mentioned as a top 3 or 5 player but no one ever puts pressure on him to win lol. Biggest stat padder in history
The bubble was the Clippers only chance
kawhi is the only reason i watch NBA…that dude is a superstar, so unflashy living with his old SUV, down to earth af!
Clippers need to fail absolutely. Can't have such crooked operation succeed.
ESPN has the worst analysts stg
No.
Admit it that win or loss, Clippers is always exciting to watch😊
This cast has been slippin lately & this episode was extremely bad. Startin to get hard to watch.
If you don’t think the Grizz are a top 6 team in the West you shouldn’t be talking basketball on TV
