Bill Simmons used to make the claim during our 2020 season that he was a fan because he had season tickets. Heās never liked the Clippers, going so far as to say the team should move to Vegas despite us getting Kawhi/PG for the exact reason of Kawhi being from LA.
Heās either the dumbest fuckin Celtics fan or he truly likes to spread his cheeks for the Lakers. Because us not being in LA wouldāve led to a trio of Bron, AD, and Kawhi.
Pure cocaine for any Clippers fan that also happens to be a regular listener of “longtime season ticket holder” Bill Simmons.
His hate went to the next level after our bubble collapse. Always thought he must’ve lost a decent chunk of money betting on us, because during that entire season he kept mentioning how Miami-Clippers would be his pick for the finals.
Either that or Ballmer completely ignored him at some rich party.
Being honest, his first tweet is a 100% accurate summation of 2004-Halloween 2023 for the LA Clippers. With all the shit thatās gone wrong with the clippers itās understandable to have thought the Harden move was going to implode after the way it kicked off.
Yes, theyāve played a solid stretch of great basketball and beat the Celtics, but letās wait until we get some championship hardware in the building before we do the ātold you soā routine. A lot of season left.
Mental health issues is a hell of a thing. Simmons needs to take his meds.
Ngl I thought the harden trade was a terrible idea. Never been happier to be wrong tho
There were a lot of people on this sub that thought the Harden trade was awful. Furthermore, although things look great, there is still a long way to go. Hopefully the men on the floor understand thisā¦which I am confident that they do.
low hoops IQ. Harden with 2 hall of fame level players won at a 66 win pace in 21 w BKN and was the #1 offense of all time. That roster was very similar to this one. He has never missed the playoffs and has been a top 4 seed 10 of the last 11 years. There is no precedent for a team with Harden to struggle.
Idk if heās in shambles. I also doubted the move, a lot of us did. Itās working – and no one is denying it. Seems level headed to me ā¦
Like 3 weeks ago Simmons went on a podcast and talked about how his Harden take might be the worst basketball take he’s had all year.
He went to the Clippers game when they beat OKC and came out of it saying that they are a Finals level NBA team.
You are like 3 weeks late to this whole thing, lol.
Come on guys, Simmons has gone on record since then saying that he was wrong about this take and that he likes watching us play. A bit disingenious to just pick and choose what media personalities have said about your team.
Iāvd had to hear this dude talk shit about the Clippers since the lob city era. It has been and will always be
#FUCK BILL SIMMONS
I mean his entire job is hot takes š¤·š»āāļø no one clicks on āit has a 30% chance of working and a 70% of not workingā¦ letās check back in 40 gamesā.Ā
At least he admits when he is wrongĀ
Fuck him. Didnāt post anything. Just his team at his podcast
I listen to almost every bs podcast. I think he’s the most entertaining in the business.
But his clipper takes this year have been awful…
He actually said he thinks we’ll miss the playoffs š¤”
TBF, BS has since said he was wrong, and he does have the Clippers as one of the favorites, even was perplexed when one of his guests said the Lakers were a contender.
I mean, we started with Harden 0-6, lost to teams we shouldnāt have, and isnāt one to not admit when heās wrong.
Thereās a whole podcast just for talking about that guy?
Simmons is good because he’ll admit he was wrong. He’s been pretty loudly in support of the Clippers for a while now and said that it was his worst take.
He’s not a bozo like Stephen A who said Kawhi should retire and pretends like he never said it. Or Brian Dameris who’s still in witness protection after the Harden rant.
Honestly, naysayers have history on their side. Say whatever they want. I donāt even care if Lakers fans move the goal posts repeatedly claiming which team runs LA. Lakers can run LA all they want. I just want these great group of guys on a team with great culture that gave many players a second chance to shine to win a championship. Go Clippers! š«¶š»
Bill Simmons has always been a fuckin moron
