The Spurs are that first husband who warns people that she's (Kawhi's) a great person when she wants to be, but she's unstable behind the scenes. Also he lost his trusty truck (Danny Green) in the divorce. The Raptors are that rebound who only dates her for a summer (2019 season) and doesn't get to be with her long enough to find out who she truly is. He was initially heartbroken that she left him so soon, but now he understands he was lucky. Though he yearns for her whenever she posts a hot pic (when Kawhi has an awesome game). The Clippers are the second husband who doesn't believe first husband's warnings, he is in debt up to his eyeballs (way over the cap) cause he told her she could quit or work part time (load management), he bought her a Mercedes (PG13) that constantly needs repairs, bought her a new house (Crypto arena), and even bought her things he knew he shouldn't be buying... like NFTs (Westbrook) and front row tickets to P. Diddy concerts (Harden) just to keep her happy. Sidenote: Lauren, you're the worst. I hope you know that.
Kawhi Leonard Russell Westbrook James harden and Paul George are the popular girls in high school that are still single at age 35 you ignore the warning signs but date her anyway and when you find out the hard way it’s too late little to you
Nah... Zubac was their most consistent player... and its not even close. But if a role player is the only one who shows up every game... thats a huge problem!
@@yacinetaibi5835 I would say its the other way around... Zubac played only 15 minutes all series without Harden (netRtg -16.9), but Harden played 65 minutes without Zubac (NetRtg -35,3)... thats so bad... Btw, they were also negative if together on the court (NetRtg of -2,7 in 177 minutes). Funny enough, the 32 minutes without BOTH were the only minutes the Clippers won... NetRtg of +17,2
Ain’t easy being a fan 🥲. Still, rather stick to the team I’ve been rooting since I started watching basketball back in the LoB City era than a bandwagon fan
I feel like both LA teams really need to blow up their cores at this point. I know the NBA won't like it because of the LA market and both teams not being good for a while, but both teams absolutely need to rebuild and have a massive shake up from the top down. The one thing you don't want to do is try to ride on this hamster wheel of insanity and then get forced into a rebuild.
@@TheAwesomeninjaBrian The Lakers especially need to rebuild. This team has been continuously retooling and tinkering since 2019 and that isn't sustainable. Especially with how problematic the organization has been, there needs to be a massive shakedown from ownership to the players.

Honestly the Clippers should run it back, just to find out how truly cursed the franchise is assuming Kawhi or Paul George gets injured before the playoffs again.
I said it before in a different video when harden did well on his 1st game. As a rockets fan In the back of my mind I always expect him to disappoint when it matters and here we are yet again. Trust me I don’t want to doubt harden but he just never proves us wrong in the playoffs.
The good thing about Harden joining a new team is that you can always predict that they won't go far and it always happens. He's making me look like Nostradamus ngl (not that it was a hard prediction though).
@@GXprogamer Bro, I never said it was Harden's fault or that there was no injury. All I said is that a team with Harden on it won't go far, whatever the reason is. Learn to read please.
clippers and brooklyn nets are now the spiderman meme for the forseeable future. they got nothing but injured players and heavy contracts and no picks or assets XD
As a Clippers fan this was my last straw for Kawhi. Can't defend him no more. Plus he made us lose game 2. It was a close all game with Kawhi playing badly at 70%, if he wouldn't have rushed and throw away the chemisty the Clippers had, he could've came later and possibly win the series or see a Game 7. Despite this Harden isn't to blame, PG not really either, and Russ although played bad, he wasn't relied on to take the load. All the blame should be for Kawhi.
Russ avg 6ppg and 25% shooting doesnt deserve a pass. But yeah the clippers in general have become such a disgrace ever since kawhi got there. They looked their best in 2019 playoffs before kawhi
@@vulcanraven9701these Russ fans lowkey make me question basketball knowledge at times like the dude doesn’t really do anything to help the team beside maybe do some antics and miss layups all the time he’s been like that for 2 seasons atleast now.
The Clippers were the team I wanted out the most. Now that they’re gone I don’t mind whoever wins the championship. I’m excited to see who comes out on top
Lol. If i may ask.. why did you want to see them out? Personally i wanted Harden to lose after being a quitter on other teams and the Paul george/SGA trade was pathetic
Clippers fans are disappointed yet again. But we are not surprised or shocked about how this season played out. Hopefully new stadium helps with the script.
I thought my Sacramento Kings was the most cursed franchise in NBA history, hell nah the Clippers are not only the most cursed franchise in NBA history but they are the most cursed in professional sports
PJ was actually flexing on Mann. Mann got upset about him staring at the clips bench. Russ was on some shit. Fouls Luka pushes Luka gets a little shove in the back and he loses it lol
PG and Harden are gone. Maybe the Clips could work out a sign-and-trade with him to send him to the Spurs for some first round picks or something, but even that's dubious.
As a clipper fan, i knew this was going to happen. Harden is one of the biggest chokers in NBA history. Leonard always has injuries, paul George does what he does.
I knew something like this was going to happen the second the Clippers got James Harden. I'd like to think that someone whose seen basketball for at least 3 years could've predicted this, the Clippers are just a rinse and repeat team at this point. But I am glad that it was the Mavericks that eliminated them, I've kept my belief that the Mavericks would've beaten the Clippers in their previous matches if Luka had help. Now that he has it, I just knew the Mavericks were the better team.
We keep doing this same song and dance, where the stacked, star studded team, with 3 or 4 All Stars/Superstars with no depth, are seen as the team that will win, and then they collapse and lose to better, deeper teams who are well coached and built better. How many teams have we seen in the last decade that gutted their depth to build "superteams", and everntually collapse or get their asses beat badly due to lack of depth, injury, or just bad roster construction and fit? The Clipper weren't a real contender, they were just the flashiest new pretenders. Same for the Suns and Bucks this year.
Ballmer is gonna want to run it back, the org spends an ungodly amount of money to keep Ty Lue, Harden, and PG, to make a team that is, at best, gonna get bounced in round 1 in an incredibly competitive WC, and then it’s gonna implode at midseason leading to a rebuilding fire sale. Keep the clips fans in your thoughts because this is gonna be a new level of basketball hell!
@@vulcanraven9701 Luka doesn’t rely on his athleticism so he’s gonna play thru it easier but he’s still a human lmfao obviously it was affecting him. hopefully he’s better for the OKC series but im not sure since Maxi is down with an injury
As a clippers fan, i think we need to re-tool for one more run with Kawhi and if that doesn’t work, blow the rest of it up. We’ve been saying “if Kawhi was healthy” for 4 years and it’s starting to get really frustrating. I think a PG sign and trade for a pick or two and a good 4/stretch 5 to pair with Zu is a good start, but I’m not sure where to go from there. I think Harden is a really good fit because he unlocks the rest of the offense beyond his/kawhi’s iso’s (especially from our bigs) but he needs to have Kawhi and exclusively Kawhi next to him because PG is completely unreliable in the playoffs
As a Raptors fan this is bitter sweet. When Kawhi was on our team I remember the Clippers front office stalking him the entire season. They eventually offered him the keys to the franchise allowing him to play the role of GM if he’d sign with them. Because of him they traded away their entire future, SGA and 5 first rounders. They laughed at us when they pried him away. But who’s laughing now?! The reality is that their window to a championship has pretty much closed. They will soon be christening a new arena with aging, injury-prone stars on their roster, and no future in the draft. And the team that they traded their future to, the OKC Thunder, now have the brightest future in the NBA thanks to Kawhi. The Clippers and their fans will be looking at the Thunder for years to come knowing what their team could have looked like. Who’s laughing now?! 😂
"someone is clearly out this season" bro if you know the clippers history you probably know what your sayi'n, like sell the team already, this team is cursed

As a Thunder fan ….. we are witnessing the greatest trade ever performed in Professional sports …. Two teams going in two total different directions !!! We are waiting for yet another lottery pic next year as Balmer burns more money & gets even worse results 👌
The real question is, what does Paul George do after this? I don't think it'll make much sense for him to go to another team that isn't contending but other teams that are contending are more than likely over the salary cap and won't be able to afford him. I think it's pretty likely that James Harden will re-sign with the Clippers since he doesn't really have a choice and Russell Westbrook purposely singed a smaller contract, so the Clippers are more or less "whole" going forward.
As a very long time Clippers fan, I hate that I'm right every year. I want them to prove me wrong but every year, almost consistently for the past 12 years, they have been good enough to make the playoffs and in some situations they've been favorites or even should have been favorites but they haven't even made the finals. Kawhi has to go, and he can take Harden with him. Neither one of them can be trusted to show up in the playoffs.
@@GXprogamer Yes I did. Speaking in terms of games played, relative to Kawhi, it's a fact. I'm not sure what you're trying to dispute. Although I do watch the games you don't have to in order to see who plays & who doesn't.
The clippers has a tendency to solve their issue years late. During the lob city error they clearly needed wing depth, and they never solved it. So is the Kawhi period, they needed a PG since the beginning. They won games because both him and PG were just iso ball then their bench comes in and score more points. Then they got harden 4 years late lol
Paul george has been my favorite player since i started watching ball. In most instances he usually shows up which hurts cause i just want 1 ring dawg 1. Pain
Clippers gonna clip. Their "big 4" Kawhi - either injured or load management PG and Harden - Shrink in the playoffs Russ - a straight up liability without his athleticism.
There’s an interesting phenomenon in the 3 main American sports. I call it the cursed 3. The Clippers, The Padres, and The Chargers are cursed to always suck. No matter how much money it’s spent or how much time they take to build a team. They’ll always collapse somehow.
Kawhi is kind of like Embiid if he makes it to the playoffs he might as well just play until he can’t anymore bc they’re always gonna hurt so I feel like they might as well just play tho but really Kawhi could’ve played this playoffs the team just decided to sit him out which idk I agreed and didn’t agree with bc he should’ve sat out game 2 came back 3,4 if he wasn’t right sit back down then when it went to 6 and game 7 see if he wants to come back and play to prevent elimination.
Harden case is very simple. His body is not prepared for high pace, intence games, several in a row. He just lacks stamina for that. He can hide that in regular seaon. And thats why he is always bad after 4 games or in 4th quarter.
Harden is a poison to ANY team he plays for. Thats been pretty obvious for sometime now. Now after Horford finally won a ring with Boston, Harden has now officially played the most playoff games as an active player with out winning a ring. He aint winning a ring. This was a bad move and now they got NO options until 2030. Gonna be a long up hill battle for this team to get its shit back together.
Getting blown out in your final home game ever at the Crypt is the most Clippers thing yet 😂
Funniest part, they won't be in Crypt anymore, lol.

The knicks and pacers are gonna be the best series in the entire playoffs
Drake and Kendrick distracting people from this Clippers loss💀 they gotta break that team up
at least next year they'll get a new arena and an improved new logo
came to think about it, are these all of the top 10 players of 2010s out?
The “Dallas to Cancun” sign wasn’t made for the Mavericks, but it was made for the Clippers
Kawhi has been out injured for the last 3 postseasons. There is no way in the hell that I would give him a max contract if I’m the Clippers.
The real question is, what does Paul George do after this? I don't think it'll make much sense for him to go to another team that isn't contending but other teams that are contending are more than likely over the salary cap and won't be able to afford him. I think it's pretty likely that James Harden will re-sign with the Clippers since he doesn't really have a choice and Russell Westbrook purposely singed a smaller contract, so the Clippers are more or less "whole" going forward.
As a very long time Clippers fan, I hate that I'm right every year. I want them to prove me wrong but every year, almost consistently for the past 12 years, they have been good enough to make the playoffs and in some situations they've been favorites or even should have been favorites but they haven't even made the finals.
Kawhi has to go, and he can take Harden with him. Neither one of them can be trusted to show up in the playoffs.
First round Harden Strikes again
They chose Kawhi & Harden over PG who was more reliable than both put together. 😆 Although wanting a no trade clause is wild on PGs behalf 😆
did you just say PG was reliable??? LMAOOOO bro yall do not watch basketball at all
@@GXprogamer Yes I did. Speaking in terms of games played, relative to Kawhi, it's a fact. I'm not sure what you're trying to dispute. Although I do watch the games you don't have to in order to see who plays & who doesn't.
The clippers has a tendency to solve their issue years late. During the lob city error they clearly needed wing depth, and they never solved it. So is the Kawhi period, they needed a PG since the beginning. They won games because both him and PG were just iso ball then their bench comes in and score more points. Then they got harden 4 years late lol
Imagine telling someone in 2018 that Kawhi PG Russell Westbrook and James Harden are all on the same team and were a first round exit
Father Time is undefeated
Paul george has been my favorite player since i started watching ball. In most instances he usually shows up which hurts cause i just want 1 ring dawg 1. Pain
Where are the celtics videos!
thx for warning everyone, should've warned the Clippers tho xD
Clippers gonna clip.
Their "big 4"
Kawhi - either injured or load management
PG and Harden - Shrink in the playoffs
Russ - a straight up liability without his athleticism.
With all these stars and they’re STILL second fiddle to the Lakers. Damn Shame
Pj pose was standing on business
6:26 ayo 😭
There’s an interesting phenomenon in the 3 main American sports.
I call it the cursed 3.
The Clippers, The Padres, and The Chargers are cursed to always suck. No matter how much money it’s spent or how much time they take to build a team.
They’ll always collapse somehow.
sure seems like anywhere Cowhide goes, injury follows....
The clippers make me sad.
You never had to warn me about the Clippers
Kawhi is kind of like Embiid if he makes it to the playoffs he might as well just play until he can’t anymore bc they’re always gonna hurt so I feel like they might as well just play tho but really Kawhi could’ve played this playoffs the team just decided to sit him out which idk I agreed and didn’t agree with bc he should’ve sat out game 2 came back 3,4 if he wasn’t right sit back down then when it went to 6 and game 7 see if he wants to come back and play to prevent elimination.
Harden case is very simple. His body is not prepared for high pace, intence games, several in a row. He just lacks stamina for that. He can hide that in regular seaon. And thats why he is always bad after 4 games or in 4th quarter.
None of them are at this point in their careers...age and lots of injuries
Ty Lue lost them this series in Game 2, very overrated coach
Mavs won not because of Kyrie. Its cos of the flame out by Harden and PG and Westbrook.
The Clippers did not learn from the Lakers. A team who consists all a lot of aging stars does not win a championship.
Well it have been worse for the Clips so that's something
Well lets see what the offseason will be for the Clips
Harden is a poison to ANY team he plays for. Thats been pretty obvious for sometime now. Now after Horford finally won a ring with Boston, Harden has now officially played the most playoff games as an active player with out winning a ring. He aint winning a ring. This was a bad move and now they got NO options until 2030. Gonna be a long up hill battle for this team to get its shit back together.
Haha so embiid getting injured in 2022 and 2023 was Harden's fault?? bro you are a CASUAL
Bucks vid when?
I've said for the longest time that if you got Westbrook or Harden on your team you don't win a ring
I can't take it anymore
What will the Clippers do? Blow it up? Try to ride it out? Lose their team for nothing? Any thoughts?
People deadass thought a team of Wayoff P, Kawashed and Small Game James was a threat to win the title 💀
Yes...they would be 5 years ago!!😂
