[Joey Linn] Three and four guard lineups, no backup center for half the season, having to sit Kawhi in overtime periods and entire halves, injuries, rotation problems. There are so many things led the Clippers to this position, and why so many fans have been uneasy from day one.

No excuses. You play the hand you are dealt. We still have the highest paid roster in the NBA and THIS is the result. Grade = F
I should have know when they let Reggie played a half after hitting his head on the ground but Wall was allowed to not play back to backs.
Nothing we can do about injuries and the load management, but 3/4 guard lineups and rotation problems is something that could’ve been avoided easily.
Is there any evidence to support running out 3 or 4 guard lineups? It’s like taking the idea of small ball and perverting it to the point where it no longer makes any sense. Worst of all with this team is that we are making the same mistakes that we saw during the opening weeks of the season. There still seems to be a hope that everything that hasn’t worked up until now will suddenly click and we’ll ascend to a level of basketball that has never been witnessed before.
It’s been such a wild season. Imagine it for the players.
You reap what you sow man. Been unserious for too long. Injuries are uncontrollable. But all the other stuff was. Until guys start taking the regular season seriously (coaches AND players), this is the bball product we get.
I remember most of us were saying this back during the massive L streak going into 2023. It was like a 2-9 stretch. It comes back to bite you in the ass
I believe this era is over. This time is reminding me about the end of the Lob City era. Team stops performing to their usual standards, relying on mid season moves to save the season. Injuries piling up
If not at least WCF just rebuild. Kawhi and PG doesnât work. Im done with all these injuries. Just wanna cheer on a team that actually plays together.
