He literally posted a reel few hours ago about being a clipper lmao

No need to rush.

Clippers are always in shambles

BRING ON THE LOTTERY PICK

Club who released Chris Paul reportedly didn’t know who he was:

Chris said under his breath, ‘This is going to ruin the tour.’ The cop replied, ‘What tour?’ Chris said, ‘The retirement tour’.

What in the actual fuck?

Something crazy must’ve happened behind the scenes, this is no way to treat a first ballot HOF who literally pulled the franchise out of the trash can.

Starting 5-16 loses you the season, it sucks but it happens to every franchise eventually, but this…..this loses you the decade. This shit is just bad Karma, it loses all trust of your franchise among players.

Even Cousins came out in support of CP3, and there’s literally a highlight reel of Paul punking Cousins on the court lol.

Imagine if Raptors did this to DeRozan? The fans would’ve burned down the house, and I will lead the way with pitchforks.

I’m assuming he can sign with another team. He’s aged so much I don’t recognize him anymore from the lob city days

That’s so fucked up.

You don’t treat a franchise star and one of the best players ever like that. Insane

Udonis Haslem was washed beyond belief, and yet Miami kept paying him to be the cheerleader on the bench for years. Being washed should not be a parameter unless you’re a cretin of a franchise.

Move them to Seattle.

It’s the same thing they did to Blake Griffin, telling him they wanted him to be the first retired number, even holding a fake jersey retirement, and then trading him to Detroit not even a year later. Poverty franchise with the league’s richest owner.

Tbh having a retirement tour on the 2025-26 Clippers might be worse than getting waived and retiring

“Sending home” sounds even worse than waiving, like he pissed his pants in 3rd grade and is waiting for his mother to pick him up from the admin office.

He’s the Clippers GOAT and this is how they treat him in his retirement tour where he picked the Clippers the specifically?

Paul pierce got a better clippers retirement tour than chris paul. They aint get their paul priorities right apparently 

This is similar to Luka trade in the sense that it makes zero sense. Chris’ Insta post means he wasn’t planning on this.

So what the fuck is franchise in shambles like Clippers has to pivot to so quickly and so importantly, that they would just suddenly cut one of 3 MOST ICONIC PLAYERS OF YOUR FRANCHISE, LEAGUE-BELOVED veteran in December. WHEN HE IS IN HIS RETIREMENT YEAR ANYWAY.

Like unless Chris has committed a crime, what reason, besides incompetency and malpractice, is to just get rid of him like this. Any regular plans like giving more minutes to rookies or even trading CP3 for fucking cash considerations could have been done by…. just talking it out with Chris and getting to an agreement.

I get that Clippers is not the best ran team but holy fuck, talk about stumbling on flat ground.

Exactly, this is gonna strain for a long time, I am sure Clippers had future plans on retiring his jersey too

I think many veteran free agents will be wary of signing with the Clippers after this fiasco.

They literally cheat.  Why expect much of them? 

They did something similar to Blake Griffin. It’s funny they don’t care about the guys that are legends on the team that gave them the most memorable years of the Clippers. Decades later, we’ll remember the Lob City Clippers more fondly than the Kawhi era Clippers, I guarantee it.

I’m a clippers fan and we all know the stories about CP3 over the years. If you think he’s just sitting quietly while the team is dog shit then you haven’t been following his career. He is for sure chirping behind the scenes and pissing people off even though he’s well past his glory days

Richest owner in the league but a poverty franchise. Streetlights over spotlights, never 4get

I really don’t like this shit

Agreed.

Clippers are a classless franchise. They did Blake so dirty too 

Yall need a veteran pg, please take him and win the chip it’d be the biggest fuck you to the clippers

“here at intuit dome we send a lottery pick to the thunder’

To steal and profit off biometric data at concession stands

Apparently built the arena on high aspirations.

I still enjoy going to games despite the crap show they put on

with zero chance of contending, guess they wanna give his minutes to the young kids to develop?

Very toxic to future free agency. 

With Balmer and being in LA, free agency was their best option to return to relevancy. 

More like two months ago lol

Media always slobs these old fucks because LA. Real hoop fans know that this team wasn’t gonna do shit and if they were, it would have been 5 years ago

Yeah this is so disrespectful. You just don’t do that

Chris Paul has never deserved better, he us one of the dirtiest players in modern NBA history and a flopping/foul baiting pioneer

He must have been mouthing off at coaches or ownership and they said ok fine see ya. The only reason this could possibly happen.

This is the problem. They are really becoming a reject show. Players are going to see this and not want to play here. So it’s LA, it’s still the B team, and it has a new stadium. Perfect for the players who don’t really love basketball and are here for the check. Ballmer going to get swindled in ‘27 free agency and won’t realize it until he’s in a wheelchair.

I actually thought it was going to happen last year when Wemby went down. Maybe Shai makes the call

Ring on his last season

the Clippers are such a joke organization. if they’re not gonna appreciate him, maybe he should go back to the team he started his career on, surely they’ve got to be better than… oh. never mind

Ain’t no way he goes out like this. Guarantee he signs with another team.

i think a lot of people throw this phrase around way too loosely but this is the definition of a poverty franchise move

Wouldn’t mind it

it’s only 12 on the best coast

I hope they do. He was a very underrated part of developing that young OKC squad back in 2020!
