      You can say this about just about every single athlete of a certain color that gets paid big money in the last 7 years or maybe more. They get their guaranteed money then conveniently get an injury that sidelines them for games/weeks/months. And it's been pointed out multiple times by espn talking heads how athletes will have the same injury yet some play while others sit out (aka the injury isn't real) the players/teams are just doing B.S. to sway betting and gameplanning. It's a a fake ans self serving machine.

    Kawhi has been a Clipper for 5 seasons. During that time he is avg over 30ppg in the playoffs. Unfortunately he has played in a total of FOUR playoff games the past 3 seasons.
    The extension in 2021 made sense. The one he signed January does not. Clips bit themselves in the azz this time

    The Clippers currently are just a team worth watching during the regular season to be honest.

If it isn't injuries that ruin their chances of playoff success, it's blown series leads. Most of their team is 30+ so they clearly need to focus on acquiring younger talent this off-season.

      Nonsense. He’s not questioning the legitimacy of his injuries, but he is saying he’s one of the worst superstars ever. And that is an opinion, which you cannot be sued for.

    Good riddance of LeBalco James.

    Darvin Ham is the newest scapegoat baby.
    LeBalco has fired more coaches than he has championships!!

    James Harden is averaging the most points on the Clippers but his superstar teammates are either not playing or not showing up this is more on Russell Westbrook Paul George and Kawhi Leonard I would trade them and bring in pieces to fit Hardens style of play also let’s not forget Dallas isn’t a bad team Luka is a mvp candidate and Kyrie is unguardable and they have a great coach in Jason Kidd and good role players
