    Soooo glad I didn’t get tickets for the home opener 😂

    I feel bad that Ty has to get asked about Kawhi every press conference because the organization refuses to be real with us.

    Could be back quick, could be out for months, no one will tell us.

    Just replace the legs. Come on ballmer you have the money

  5. Cant wait til 213 is completely over. Most stressful years as a clipper fan.

    Cool I’m sure you’ll be fine my big stud ❤️❤️

    He might need that lonzo ball treatment. Get a cartilage transplant to re-grease the knee joint

    We gotta change how we play Kawhi, because he seems to follow a familiar pattern.

    **Off-season:** recovery

    **Early season:** slow ramp up then minor injury setback

    **Mid-season:** MVP level performances 

    **Post ASG break:** Cool down, trying to preserve body for playoffs

    **Final stretch:** Ramp up to playoff intensity 

    **Playoffs:** Injured

    imo the key for us is to not worry about securing a Top 6 seed.  The last couple years we have had to really push Kawhi during the final stretch to avoid falling into the play-in.  Given the lower expectations, we should accept the play-in as inevitable in order to make the playoffs (even as a 9 or 10 seed).  So long as there are several teams trying to tank, that should let Kawhi gradually raise his intensity towards the end, as opposed to having to flip a switch.

    KL should retire to give Clips some cap relief

    Trickle truth

    Next is Kawhi will miss the opening month. Then all of 2024. Then won’t be back until after the All Star break. Then, you know the rest.

    Orange is not only a color but a fruit

  12. Canoli5000

    Not news at all. Probably won’t play till end of November – early December

  13. scruffy4

    Water is wet. Fire is hot. Etc. etc. etc.

  14. I_Am_McLovin007

    Is he going to play once the season starts? Trying to decide if should buy tickets or not

  15. a-random-gal

    i feel really bad for yall like this is nba purgatory. rooting for yall so the thunder don’t get a good pick this draft.

    Other NBA teams dodged a bullet. Why did Clippers extend him? 2019 was 5 yrs ago. He has never been fit since then.

  17. Beleiverofhumanity

    Eh kinda expected. Would rather him not playing and getting injured again. If he doesn’t play in the season that’s when I’d get annoyed

  18. Federal_Bear_7521

    The team as it’s built is fucking cooked. Why are people in denial?? Klaw is done.

  19. SuperMario_49

    He’s just gonna get hurt again once he plays. It’s never ending

  20. CoCoMiX_666

    Kawhi is done, play the young guys already. Even if he does come back he won’t last long. How many times must we go thru this? Please retire already bro, just always teasing.

  21. EfficiencyOk9060

    Well, I for one am shocked 🙄

  22. griwulf

    This is so ridiculous. Any other player would be retiring in China by now. What did Kawhi even give Clippers to be getting this kind of princess treatment? Should’ve gotten rid of him two years ago when he had a tiny bit of trade value at least.

  23. Unlikely_Parsley4292

    How do you rehab a 6+ month inflamed knee? I mean is it ice? Is it heat? Is it do nothing until the swelling goes down? What is the actual process?

  24. A_Curious_Cockroach

    I legit don’t understand the logic of why the clippers signed him to an extension.

    But the phrase “I legit don’t understand the logic of why the clippers” is something that has been said a lot when it comes to the nba
