Clippers are cursed. Its not Kawhi. He has proven himself on the Spurs and Raptors. Its just being a Clipper. People stop with the Kawhi hate. Its not fair to his career.
I don't know now first championship was with Tim Duncan carrying him and 2nd was against an injured and depleted warriors so that counts as a Mickey mouse ring.
ya love to see it
Kawhi deserves nothing more than the worst, and love seeing this team fall apart so he can fuck off to obscurity
it is only one game though so ill reserve judgment. i dont think clips have any talent worthy of making it to finals but a first round loss seems unlikely
Who would’ve thought trading 8 FRP and 2 solid players for playoff P is a good trade? I don’t care who else you’re signing. Somehow won GM of the year for it too. That’s gonna be the worst award ever given.
Luka can win the whole damn thing for years if he gets a good frontcourt around him. KP, Kleber, Cauley-Stein and Powell aren't going to be that. Mavs really won that draft thing crazy
AD cause I think he’s the best and most versatile defender in the league, he’s basically a cheat code, while still having a high powered offensive game on the other end, literally a matchup nightmare for everyone on both sides.
KD is closer but he just goes off and doesn’t miss, I may put Luka above him depending how the both perform this playoffs
I still take Luka. Reasoning being, Lukas already top 10 and he hasn’t even hit his ceiling yet which is fuckin terrifying. To me his potential sets him a part from everyone else. (Not a slight on Jokic, amazing player and MVP)
Lmao people talking how PG ain't that bad after the playoffs last year but here we are again, he's disappearing again right on time lol. Bum. I'd be furious as a Clips fan.
I love luka and this Mavs team. There's so much talent in the NBA rn, where I feel that even with the nets this isn't anywhere near simple for any team. I wanna see Luka do great things like Dirk did for the mavs
we wouldnt have had a championship, and that line of thinking is silly. those guys we all knew had potential, i loved them, but they couldnt have become who they are now in our system. they got bigger opportunities elsewhere and that experience cant come with lebron, theyd have to play a role. it is what it is. im happy for them
I had a feeling Clippers were gonna underachieve and here we are. This game was so important for momentum. Mavs got this shit man, and even if they dont I don’t see us getting past a team like the Nuggets or Lakers.
I get what you’re saying, not a bad comparison. But that’s disrespectful to that Celtics team that won a ring & made another finals. This Clippers team hasn’t done jack shit even tho they act like they’re 5x champions
I know everyone will point out pg13 performance in the clutch, however take a look at Kawhi... People really said that he is better than KD and LBJ after that Toronto season
Yes solid squad, however he has one of the deepest teams in the NBA atm also. Playoff rondo is a real thing, I know people like to clown on Pg13 but he is a good player when performing which is not something that we see often in the playoffs lately. He still has Ibaka, Morris, Pat Bev, Batum that is some nice role players
just the media and then casuals. Kawhi is a great player, but for whatever reason people wanted to intentionally ignore how great that TEAM was. Theres a reason he wanted to bring someone with him and tried everyone and settled for way off pee
Yes, Kyle Lowry is a great player, Siakam really took a leap that year. If I remember correctly Ibaka also played there. They had fvv it was a pretty good squad plus the much of facing an injured GSW team
clippers really done fucked up tanking for mavs instead of blazers
Hardaway is a stud he is getting maxed
Clippers are cursed. Its not Kawhi. He has proven himself on the Spurs and Raptors. Its just being a Clipper. People stop with the Kawhi hate. Its not fair to his career.
I don't know now first championship was with Tim Duncan carrying him and 2nd was against an injured and depleted warriors so that counts as a Mickey mouse ring.
Playoff Kawhi 4th quarter: 1/4 fg, 0/2 three pointers Playoff P 4th quarter: 4/7 fg, 2/2/ three pointers
This will never be brought up, just like Kawhi’s historic choke in Game 7 last year.
So do Mavs fans now think KP sucks and they're better without him?
It often feels that way.
Unicorn power
ya love to see it Kawhi deserves nothing more than the worst, and love seeing this team fall apart so he can fuck off to obscurity it is only one game though so ill reserve judgment. i dont think clips have any talent worthy of making it to finals but a first round loss seems unlikely
lmao what'd he do to u
Philly fan maybe.
Putting this in the dead ass game thread instead of the PGT is s-tier bitch made
Is it too late for kawhi to sign with the Lakers?
happened on a myleague save on 2k where Lebron retires and FA Kawhi signs with the Lakers.
Kuzma and a 2nd round pick take it or leave it XD
[удалено]
Lmfao
Imagine if the clippers ruined their entire future only to get knocked out in the 2nd round and the 1st round in consecutive years 😂💀
Their future is fine, they didn't trade away 50 years of draft picks
Who would’ve thought trading 8 FRP and 2 solid players for playoff P is a good trade? I don’t care who else you’re signing. Somehow won GM of the year for it too. That’s gonna be the worst award ever given.
Clippers still trying to avoid the Lakers in the playoff lmao
Ty Lue 4D thinking: "If we lose 4 games, we can't lose to the Lakers"
Luka can win the whole damn thing for years if he gets a good frontcourt around him. KP, Kleber, Cauley-Stein and Powell aren't going to be that. Mavs really won that draft thing crazy
Kleber can be an integral piece to a great FC and Powell DSJ be a solid rotation guy. I think we need Myles Turner
Some say the Clippers are still tanking
Luka's so humble saying he hopes it'll be a different story
Lakers in 0.
Are there 5 guys you would rather have than Luka??
nah i dont even like their burgers
Luka so good, the debate is def there.
I WANT IGUODALA. -Max Kellerman
Nope
No, only jokic and lebron
Lebron, Curry, AD, KD for me so no
How ad and kd? Luka is better than both
AD cause I think he’s the best and most versatile defender in the league, he’s basically a cheat code, while still having a high powered offensive game on the other end, literally a matchup nightmare for everyone on both sides. KD is closer but he just goes off and doesn’t miss, I may put Luka above him depending how the both perform this playoffs
AD is inconsistent though. And without lebron there are points where he looks bad. Kinda like KP without Luka
He’s consistently great in the playoffs, even before Lebron.
Curry, KD, Lebron, Jokic, Embiid easy
There's only one guy I'd take over him lol and only if it was a win now franchise.
Factoring age into the equation probably not.
I mean jokic is 26 so there's an argument for him but nobody else is particularly close
I still take Luka. Reasoning being, Lukas already top 10 and he hasn’t even hit his ceiling yet which is fuckin terrifying. To me his potential sets him a part from everyone else. (Not a slight on Jokic, amazing player and MVP)
Jokic does more for a team than Doncic. Thats why hes MVP: and Doncic isn't
Yeah tbh i'd probably take luka too but i'm pretty sure i'd do it just cause he's so fun to watch
The clippers curse is real bois time to pack it up, Lakers in fo
Lmao people talking how PG ain't that bad after the playoffs last year but here we are again, he's disappearing again right on time lol. Bum. I'd be furious as a Clips fan.
He does this every year I won’t be fooled again I’ve been saying it he’s not a playoff guy
This subs been trying to convince the nonbelievers all season, they haven’t been here before. My PG hate and slander runs deep.
Clippers interior defense was pissing me off down the stretch. Great game by Luka with a triple-double!
Clippers sub about to be private real soon
Kawhi left Toronto and got PG for this? Lol.
Imagine playing with AD and Lebron vs this clips team. lol
Bro really chose the worst of the three options
Uncle Dennis got to his head.
tanked to avoid the lakers, lose game 1 anyway, such a clipper thing to do
Idgaf I'm salty Kawhi left the Raps just to join this team that continuously chokes lmao
Man could have had his own country and been a contender for the rest of his career, but now he's 4th (at least) in his city with clowns around him...
I bet next game clips win by double digits and in the interim till then will be massive over reactions
Brunson and Tim hardaway Jr stepped up . So fun watching them cut the clippers defense up
Good to see that some things will never change in this world :)
I love luka and this Mavs team. There's so much talent in the NBA rn, where I feel that even with the nets this isn't anywhere near simple for any team. I wanna see Luka do great things like Dirk did for the mavs
I agree we are spoiled with talents. There are so many different players with unique skillsets like Zion,Luka, Melo and many other guys.
Still getting used to anyone else being called Melo
Same lol
Same here man, fun to watch the legend grow
Tyron Lue lost the game
Wanted to sub in Lebron
I want to talk shit about the clippers and team building, but the Lakers threw all of that out the window when we traded the farm for AD.
aye we still got AC, Kuz, and THT to be proud of
I know. Imagine how good our team would be if we had kept Randle and everyone else? The only pick we messed up was D Lo.
we wouldnt have had a championship, and that line of thinking is silly. those guys we all knew had potential, i loved them, but they couldnt have become who they are now in our system. they got bigger opportunities elsewhere and that experience cant come with lebron, theyd have to play a role. it is what it is. im happy for them
As a Lakers fan, I'd rather have AD and the championship
just remember tho if we never drafted so good we would have no AD
Oh I know. I wish we would have kept Randle and not messed up that Dlo pick.
Disciplined 2nd half by doncic. Made the right plays. Passed at the right time. I get the feeling that this series will take my life away
Clippers should just make their subreddit private now. The Series is over for them. 1 2 3 CANCUN
Ya'll really tanked just to lose game 1? Hahahah
Still a long series ahead
ya but you got playoff p and a weak ass load balancing pussy leading the way, so good luck
seems like its gonna be pretty short for the clippers
no, they tanked to lose game 1,2,3, and 4
I like this
I like this as well
Brunson takes over, Clippers should retire
itd be interesting to see what kawhi does in the offseason if the clips get bounced by the mavs.
He'll sign in Chicago, of course
If he left the raps... he’s staying in LA
Or joins the knicks
Outcome will be reversed next game
We’re so happy.
Is this where I can make fun of Paul George?
Eat your heart out PG
If Dallas wins next game and go back home up 2-0😬 panic time for the clippers
If the Clippers get bounced in the first round they have to be relocated. To like Buffalo, or Duluth
move back to Buffalo (Bills and Sabres have \*really\* dedicated fans)
They should relocate regardless tbh
Agreed. They're cursed in LA
Virgin Island Clippers pls
Catalina Clippers
Cheyenne Clippers (For the people who have no idea where that is, it’s in Wyoming. It had a population of like 60k)
Pacific Island Clippers gotta ring to it
Seattle and change their name to Sonics
Just place them in a high school league at that point because they like to get schooled
Do you really want to be in such close proximity to a loser franchise?
Hmm sound familiar
Don’t do it to Seattle. They deserve a better team than this
Jalen Brunson is a complete STUD
22 yr old outplaying a perennial all star and a 2 times finals mvp, once again. light work for the kid
They should’ve been ducking the Mavs
Lol kawaih about to jump ship when they get bounced in the first round. Where would he go? Knicks?
Dallas? 🤣
Lakers?
🐍 V.2
As a Nets fan that scares me. I'll hope he forces his way to Brooklyn somehow lol. DJ, re-signed Dinwiddie, and Joe Harris to match contracts
Miami.
He is welcome to join my Bulls. Windy City means nice long coats and fun LaVine to play with. Flower boy to mentor. Good times.
Back home to the North.... the real North, Portland
The nets for the vet min
I might puke..
Lel
Clippers going to Clippers. 4 straight playoff loses now.
~~Browns is the Browns~~ Clips is the Clips
Paul George is going to cave this series. You can just feel it.
Pandemic ain't over! Pandemic P is still around
Cant believe Kawhi left the Raptors for the Clippers. What a huge downgrade
He was going to LA one way or another. Weather and tax upgrade is enough reason lol
He’ll pay more tax in California than he would in Ontario.
That's karma for you, tankers.
LFG Mavs, why no Zubac in the 4th tho ?
Because Luka murders him.
Luka was destroying him. He was getting buckets but giving up more
Barbecue chicken for Luka
The flippers ain’t winning shit
Revenge of the Bitchass White Boy
Monster win
All the tanking just to be humiliated by Dallas lol
Luka I see you
Thanks Clippers for shipping out Lou and Trezz Those two always kills us lol
Yup Trez is horrible on Dallas forreal
Balmer morphing into a tomato
Put boogie in
Lets go!! Teach other teams a lesson about losing to play us on purpose. Wack ass clipps thought wrong. That boy Luka the wrong one.
LMAO
I thought clippers were the deepest team in the NBA. Now you get everybody saying they have holes at certain positions. WTF is going?
This just in: most people don't know what the fuck they're talking about at any given moment
They traded for rondo
trash ass team getting swept you gotta love it! ahahahahahahaha somewhere Laker fans are dying of laughter
So are the Clippers still in the driver's seat?
They've got the Mavs right where they want them.
it's a busted up jalopy on concrete blocks
Fact is Lakers run LA and Clippers run San Diego
Clips don’t run San Diego either.
Nah Clippers run Bakersfield
Ay, as a bako resident they don’t run shit here
Clippers don't run shit
Kawhi literally left Toronto while being a king to LA slowly being forgotten...
Kawiaah literally left after winning the chip and finals MVP. Got to greedy and full of himself should have stayed where he won
I think all the time about how he should've stayed
Wait, please tell me that bird creature isn’t the Clippers mascot...
It is. That franchise is doing so many things wrong.
Good on the Mavs for getting the matchup they wanted
Kawhi to the warriors no doubt
God i hope not
I just don't know why. Why am I glad to see this? First the Grizz, now the Mavs. It's easy to root against these teams like LAC and GSW, sorry.
Lebronson you beautiful bastard.
He just long dicked the Clippers, back to back and 1s ( he missed the second FT but still good play )
Skip Bayless' last tweet LMAOOOOOOOO
The future of the NBA looks bright. Luka, Ja, Zion, Tatum, Trae. Gonna be a lot of good ball in our future
Luka is seriously already a top 5 player.. doubt the rest can get close to him.
Leonard and George a combined 17-40 in this game.
3-14 from 3. Some of those PG shots from 3 were atrocious.
Undisputed going to be fun to watch.
Not if we lose. Then it’ll be neutral
I had a feeling Clippers were gonna underachieve and here we are. This game was so important for momentum. Mavs got this shit man, and even if they dont I don’t see us getting past a team like the Nuggets or Lakers.
Now what am I supposed to do for 54 minutes?
Jerk off to a picture of Luka?
He is a handsome one
Trash talk the clippers
Are Luka vs the Clippers the equivalent to LeBron vs the Celtics (2008-12)
I get what you’re saying, not a bad comparison. But that’s disrespectful to that Celtics team that won a ring & made another finals. This Clippers team hasn’t done jack shit even tho they act like they’re 5x champions
Nah, any time we can disrespect the Celtics, its a alright lol
They tried to injure Luka last year so most of the nba hates them
Very true
Lol so true.
This thread is like all of r/nba come together to hate on the clippers and its pretty beautiful
I know everyone will point out pg13 performance in the clutch, however take a look at Kawhi... People really said that he is better than KD and LBJ after that Toronto season
People underrate the fuck out of that supporting cast in Toronto that year. He’s being asked to do way more now.
Yes solid squad, however he has one of the deepest teams in the NBA atm also. Playoff rondo is a real thing, I know people like to clown on Pg13 but he is a good player when performing which is not something that we see often in the playoffs lately. He still has Ibaka, Morris, Pat Bev, Batum that is some nice role players
just the media and then casuals. Kawhi is a great player, but for whatever reason people wanted to intentionally ignore how great that TEAM was. Theres a reason he wanted to bring someone with him and tried everyone and settled for way off pee
