The Clippers Championship Window Is NOW #nba
Man kaai get the 150 for the threeyear extension yeah I mean I think right now they really seeing what the potential of this team can be yeah you know what I’m saying I know they ain’t won a championship together but you know I think all the pieces is lining up
Because if you extend Kawai then that mean you got to resign Paul Georgia and then you got to see what you going to do with Harden because now you get in full steam ahead with the team that’s like really growing that’s looking like they could be a championship Contender and
Then moving forward you moving into a new Arena that you need to sell and so you can’t go in there with no rebuild situation so like you got to resign you got to bring your all stars back and see what happen because we know the potential of this team they looking like
A true Contender right now they looking like it’s like they didn’t moved up into conversations like oh they could be the one team maybe in the west that can challenge Denver because when I’m looking around you know I’m not the Lakers they not looking like a team that
Can challenge Denver Phoenix pH Golden State

The Truth with that “yeah” 😂
If Kawhi wins his 3rd , i'll put him.above KD in this generation, the guy is awesome his only mistake was that load management BS but that's almkst everyone in thid generation, but he plays the game the right way , he does some ridiculous move and then just goes back to play D no silly celebrations or grimace and plays both sides of the floor and in this generation his Toronto Ring is the most impressive along with Dirk's
Kawhi taking $153M for 3 years was less than he was entitled to as a max level talent. That frees up LAC to bring back the others
MINNESOTA!?!!!!!!!
I know people like Doc Rivers and JJ Redick be talking about how the Clippers might be the most talented and deepest team out there. Come playoffs, the most important ability is AVAILABILITY. We need these guys to be healthy. Talent, skills, depth, experience, intelligence, and wisdom means nothing in the playoffs if our stars aren’t available to play again. The words coming out of Doc or JJ won’t mean anything if Kawhi gets hurt again.
Do you remember Paul George getting hurt a month before the playoffs last year? Then Kawhi got hurt and couldn’t play more than two playoff games. We need to be healthy in the playoffs. Tired of watching us get hurt every year in it. I’m enjoying the moment now but you can never think too far ahead. The franchise feels cursed. Clippers fans already built up too much PTSD to get overly excited.
I like that Clippers are seeking a tweener 4 and 5. Yes, that’s who we need. Someone who can switch guarding LeBron and AD. I don’t mind keeping Plumlee around even though Theis has took all his minutes. Need to keep Plumlee for security in case Zu goes down. Teams like Denver and Minnesota are big. We need as much size as possible especially a power forward since we gave up Batum and Morris for Harden. We don’t have too many holes in our roster.
I admire Kawhi for staying committed to the Clippers. He’s trying to be like Michael Jordan when he was a Chicago Bull. Takes a garbage franchise and turns them into champions. I believe our championship window has opened for another three years if Clippers can keep Kawhi, PG, and Harden together until 2027. They’ll likely retire as Clippers with hopefully one or two rings won. Just winning one championship will suffice. I’m hoping winning that one happens this June. But we still got a looooong way to go. Be nice for PG, Harden, and Russ to finally win a ring.
I don’t care if Skip Bayless no longer believes in us because he hates Russ so much. Once he picked Lakers, he jinxed them. Skip was duped by the Lakers FLUKEY WCF run last year. Now they stink which is what they really were and they need 1x all-star in Dejounte Murray to save them! 😂 Not happening. Trade market is crap out there. Not one new player the Lakers will trade for will save their season.
The trade market is trash like this Lakers team that was called deep only a month ago. They finally realized Austin Reaves’ ceiling is more role player than Hillbilly Kobe. Reaves is nothing special. He’ll get 25 and then score 7 in the next game. He had a few clutch moments but he’s really a role player at best. Same applies to Rui. One good game followed by a bad one. Dejounte or LaVine will not magically turn the Lakers around. Lakers should’ve went after Harden before we got him.
Remember when Lakers fans last year were saying they finally had the right Russell? What happened since then? Westbrook is finally on the right LA team with no drama. He only needs to focus on hustle, rebounding, defense, and passing like Rodman and Draymond. While Lakers can’t wait to get rid of D’Angelo a second time! Vanderbilt played great D last year but he’s too undersized and is averaging 2.5 PPG this season. Cam Reddish is garbage. Get rid of him ASAP. He’s mentally weak and is why the Hawks and Knicks got rid of him.
Now Lakers are suffering without a playmaker except LeBron. The same way the Clippers suffered without a playmaker after trading away SGA. CP3 is not going to the Lakers. He wants to win a ring after he gets bought out by Golden State. Not go to a 10th seed. It doesn’t matter if Lakers get Dejounte Murray or whoever. The only people who can save the Lakers’ season are the refs. It’s rigged for them to win to please all the Hollywood liberal elites paying for floor seats.
It’s so hilarious to me because Lakers just barely re-signed Reaves and Hachimura. Now they’re not living up to how they played before they got their bag that Lakers may need to consider trading them. It may take both if they want someone like Murray which would then lose their depth. And while Murray has been killing it with his scoring, the Hawks haven’t been killing it since getting him and he’s in the weaker conference next to a prime Trae Young.
I told y’all losing Schröder was a big deal. The guy helped the Lakers in his two stints become one of the top defensive teams. Then he can hit timely shots. But each time you had him, you couldn’t pay him. Then fans mocked him after the 2021 season when you heard he rejected $80M. Schröder was almost making up Alex Caruso’s defense. Lonnie Walker IV was another guy who could shoot. Lakers have a terrible road record and it’s because their role players play worse on the road.
Let’s look at the possible players out there for the Lakers –
Chris Paul: Turns 39 in May. Has another injured hand. This could be his final season as I doubt any team will sign him next season. Look what happened to Blake Griffin. Nobody wants him. After Carmelo played for the Lakers, he ended up retiring. CP3 is better off going to the Clippers and being the 10th guy on the bench. Has a better shot at a ring.
Klay Thompson: Too old. Already getting benched. No longer defends as well before his injuries. Warriors already had DLo before, so a trade involving him will be a no to the Warriors.
Draymond Green: This could actually work for the Lakers since he’s a Klutch client but only briefly. He can provide playmaking and defense but he won’t provide shooting and size. Could be more trouble than his worth since he seems to get into more suspensions as of late than playing in actual games. He’s still too undersized to handle teams like Denver.
Zach LaVine: Too complicated since he’s being owed too much money. Lakers would need to trade AD if they wanted him. And LaVine is not some defensive stopper. He’s a 2x all-star who plays in the weak East. If he played out West, he would’ve never been named an all-star.
Dejounte Murray: 1x all-star needs to save the Lakers? Dude is never mentioned as a top 30 player and Lakers now desperately need this guy as their third star? 🤣 And people laughed at my Clippers for trading for James Harden, a future HoFer. Dejounte is not a future HoFer. He’s only a slightly better version of Austin Reaves. Borderline all-star.
You got nothing, Lakers. Unless the Lakers can somehow get Anthony Edwards, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, or Steph Curry without giving up LeBron and AD, the Lakers are headed nowhere. Dejounte Murray is no star. It’s funny because last year, it looked like they were the big winners of the trade deadline. But it was all a mirage. Clippers got Westbrook and were mocked for it. Now they’re better than the Lakers. Same with Minnesota who used to have DLo and Vanderbilt.
The Clippers not listening to Flip Bayless was the right thing to do. Getting “Westbrick” gives the Clippers a better word of mouth to local guys. Russ was never welcomed by Lakers fans. But Clippers fans welcomed him with open arms. It shows that the Lakers are a jackass organization with jackass fans. Russ is well liked by players around the league. More LA players would choose Clippers over Lakers.
Guys like DeRozan and Jrue Holiday who are from LA would end up choosing Clippers over Lakers because how well the Clippers treated their SoCal boys. We saw it with Harden. Less pressure. LeBron’s priorities won’t be put above the team. Notice the NBA wants the draft to be a two-day thing. Got to showcase Bronny once he’s picked in the second round…🤣 Then Adam approved the IST to help LeBron accomplish something at his age. Here’s a trophy, medal, and banner for winning 7 games while being placed in a weak group.
My Clippers briefly had Paul Pierce. He was the biggest Lakers fan growing up. Now you hear him praise the Clippers more than the Lakers if he isn’t rooting for his Celtics. Playing for the Lakers really isn’t a dream come true and there’s so many Lakers greats/ghosts to chase. Look at Brook Lopez. He’s from LA and attended those Lakers championship parades in the early 00s. Then Lakers didn’t pay him and he’s now a staple with Milwaukee winning a ring there.
Kawhi is doing a Michael Jordan thing or a LeBron James 2016 thing trying to turn a downtrodden franchise into an NBA champion. It doesn’t matter if LeBron wins another ring with the Lakers because Lakers fans will never put him above Magic or Kobe. AD has a bubble ring and real, longtime Lakers fans would never put him above Big Game James.
If LeBron so badly wants to play next to Steph Curry, he needs to leave the Lakers this summer and sign with the Warriors. If he wants to win another ring in LA, then sign with the Clippers for the veteran’s minimum. He’ll have all the help he’ll need playing next to 4 other future HoFers, gets to reunite with Ty Lue, and play in our new arena.
LeGM Blames has already shipwrecked the Fakers thanks to his demands. Time to abandon ship and leave AD hanging there like he did to DWade in Miami back in 2014. A Dejounte Murray trade will not save the Lakers season. It’s frickin’ only Dejounte Murray. Borderline star. He’s on the tier level of Tobias Harris. Not a real star. The quality of players in the trade market will not move the needle for most teams. They’re only good players on bad teams and they’re bad teams because these players really aren’t that good to begin with.
Dejounte Murray weighs 180 lbs. He’s going to get wrecked by Kawhi and PG in the low block. Too scrawny like Stephen A. Smith would lose a fist fight to Jason Whitlock because Fatlock would just sit on him and break his weak bones. Screamin’ A. Myth is all bark with no bite.
Clippers & championship in the same sentence in comedy. Let alone WCF
Damn, Paul Pierce making sense out here
It's not for the MONEY. The money is just being used to help get there, to the ultimate goal…
💪🏻👍🏻💪🏻
2024 clippers giving 2008 celtikkks vibes, one and only probably
Kawhi about to be an LA legend if he helps Russ, PG, and harden to win a championship.
You really need to be a somebody to pull off green glasses 😅
P pretty intelligent when he off the weed
Doesn't matter, Celtics are winning it all.
Maybe he said it later, but Truth, if you don't think OKC will be bringing the heat, I don't know what you're watching.
"Knocked out by Golden State"
As long as there's no 'load management' issues or injuries again, DENVER NUGGETS watch out!😮
Clippers do this trade please money matches and both teams win
Mann, Pj, Bones, Plumlee, Boston Jr.
For
Derozen(la boy) & Drummond
Pg: Harden/Russ
SG: Derozen/Powell
Sf: George/Coffey
Pf: Khawi/Theis
C: Zubac/Drummond
Championship and Great LA Core top bring to new arena
The TRUTH finally speaking the TRUTH… 😁 If LaMelo gets 250 in Charlotte for 5 years, why Kawhi can't get 150 in 3??? Lol….
Nope
don't say too much because Kevin Garnett getting upset he's so locked in on the Lakers it's so proud of LeBron James he don't know what to do what naked squash the Lakers Kevin Garnett he don't want to hear that he's so locked in on LeBron thinking he could do the world the imagination to the Lakers and it all in all LeBron James wanted to do from the beginning is tried to erase Kobe Bryant that is the reason why it's not working Kobe Bryant can't be erased Kobe Bryant hook up was flawless you'll never be able to erase that man on or off the court
So stacking a team to win a championship is wrong every other time, but here its awesome
The people use to think LA Clippers is a graveyard for the basketball unwanted players now it looks like they are low key contenders…..all the dots are starting to connect in the LA Clippers and that's coming from a Warriors fan here👋👋
Kawhi will go down by May💯
150mill for 3 years
That's 4 potential hall of famers on one team.
Sorry but the window closed. Wolves got the next decade
Nuggets ? lol they beat a overachieving injuried heat team lol they aren’t real threats man at all. And that lakers team would not had even made the playoffs if not for new playin rules. Now jokic a winner all of a sudden who players need to get through lol I’m not impressed with Gianni’s chip either
