Clippers have lost 18 of their last 21 games.
Presti rubbing his hands like Birdman.
They started off 3-2 but then once November hit its like they became the worst team in the league.
clippers lose
the story so far
Your artwork is always top tier bro!
It’s ironic that you are the Clipper that has put the most effort this season.
He is our MVP.
Lmfao š¤£
You da man, Eric
Maybe your best one yet. (Even the bear looks sympathetic!)
Why does Chuck look like Balmer in those
Watching them gift OKC a top 3 pick is like seeing an atomic bomb strapped to a train rolling down the tracks at 5 mph
this might actually become worse on people’s psyche than Durant joining the Warriors, you’re gonna have to hear about this being possible for at least 3 more months
And then we got their swap for next year too
Jesus
Is there even a path for them to improve the roster? Or are they going to fully gift top 3 picks to the Thunder, following in the footsteps of the Nets x Celtics Tatum and Brown picks?
Either way, that pick is in the lottery next year, we could probably trade it if needs be alongside I-Hart if we canāt reach an extension agreement. Those 2 being starting points for a trade package has insane potential.
Theyāll probably pick up a few wins at the end of the season, cause the other bad teams with 2026 picks will start hardcore tanking. Same thing will happen with the Pelicans.
However, I really canāt think of a reasonable way for the Clippers to get way better this season. Derrick Jones Jr should return soon, which will help, but they donāt exactly have great trade options. The trades they could make would actually probably make them worse this season, in exchange for future assets š«
Ring up Boston, Denver, Detroit, Lakers & say give us your 4th/5th starter for free so we win 30 games or we’ll blow this shit up properly and send OKC 2x top 5 picks. Your Hall of Famers wont be able to do shit about it no matter how well they play.
Lmfao thatād be hilarious and could work.
āYou think theyāre good now? Try beating them after we give them Dybansta and that Cameron Williams kid. Gimme Anfernee Simmons for Bradley Beal and a 2nd.ā
Yeah theyāll win a more games in mmm, at the very least. So many teams will be purposely trying to lose soon, just them not doing that will bump they out the top 7.
If the Thunder get a top 3 pick thatās like if the Durant Warriors drafted Tatum in 2017
https://youtu.be/a3_PPdjD6mg
No because this is possibly deserved. That was stupid luck
Wonāt be worse for mine
I need to cook up something good for my “Clippers L” post after we kick their ass on Thursday
This sub really needs gifs so I can reply with Jack Nicholson nodding
The amount of times in game threads I wish I could post that one pic of Dub looking in a mirror and the reflection is a dog.
take these sexual tensions you two are building to your own sub guys, disgusting behaviour
What lottery pick would want to go to OKC? You don’t get playing time.
Yeah who likes winning?
Tell that to recent non-lottery pick, ajay Mitchell, and see if he would agree with you. Thereās always playing time for talented players.
Cason was a top 10 pick and is one of the key role players. Ajay was a second round and is the third ball handler of the team.
If someone really good is drafted into OKC, they will find the time for him
Particularly since Hartenstein + Lu Dort might not be extended after their contract expire in 2027, since the Thunder will be cap strapped with the three maxās.
The option to swap those guys for a prospect like AJ Dabantsa is insane!
Talented young players will always be valued in OKC and play time will be found. And yeah, with the impending money restrictions that will cost some of the current depth pieces, rookie contracts will be used to fill the gaps.
Currently only 4 guys in the roster have their secured minutes, SGA, Jdub, Chet and Hartenstein. The others are all earning their playtime daily (besides Caruso who is a playoff demon and will up his minutes again when needed)
Rest of the NBA better hope they have a random 3-week stretch of quality basketball in them bc this team is bent over ready to give OKC Boozer, Dybantsa, or Peterson
r/nba is the Larry David gif they’re happy the Clippers are collapsing but upset over OKC benefiting from it
if we beat the Clippers by like 30 the post game threads will be going right back to defcon 0 levels of āweāre fuckedā xp
Meh they probably will in like March. Especially because teams like the Nets Hornets and Jazz will shut it down hard to tank
Still ill gladly take like the 8th pick at worst in a loaded draft
remember that Jdub was a 12th overall pick
And Shai was 11th
And I was undrafted
Slacker
AND MY AXE
dell and eric commentated one of the NBA cup games, feels like there will be opportunities like that for them!
ā ļøoverachieve before the deadline
ā ļøtrade away the culprits
āļøsecure the #8 pick
Nah this team fucking sucks.
Kawhi will get hurt
Harden is old and will eventually get tired
The Jazz will definitely go full tank commanders at some stage, Iām just hoping Keyonte has a few more performances like he did last night so they get their record high enough the Clippers canāt catch them. In a dream scenario they are projected to be 7th or so, but x2 teams behind them jump up so we also get their pick.
Clippers I feel will be 5th in odds by the time the season ends imo.
Edit: hopefully Russ drags the Kings to a slightly better record as well. Be hilarious if he manages to drag them to just enough wins.
Meh I think harden would really shut it down or demand traded before that. It’s basically walk of shame at that point.
Derrick Jones Jr is also supposed to return soon, which is a pretty big deal since heās one of their only non-geriatrics
Hopefully the NBA reverse rigs it like they did Cooper and teams who needs the lottery picks actually get them. I need Eric Collins playcalling a playoff series.
And somehow Kawhi has played the last 9, and they are still 1-8 in those. Harden is averaging 26-5-8, Kawhi is averaging 25-6-3 and they are still this bad. They were far better even with no Kawhi for the first 2⁄3 of last season, just the absence of Powell can’t justify them getting this much worse, really strange season.
Too much drama, people arnt focused on basketball.
I mean the aspiration scandal is probably hanging over the locker room. The āStarā of this team is making far more money under the table than the other starters and he doesnāt even play a lot of the games.
Maybe itās not the cause of the bad vibes, but itās probably not helping either.
Yeah I think itās just the team quitting in general, same with coaches
No heart
Kawhi doesn’t defend anymore
Yeh, they donāt give af. Empty stat lines
team’s given up on themselves, plus removing the one guy who was trying to get everyone up presumably (CP3) must have made morale worse.
there is little to no talent outside of Harden, Zu and Kawhi - its as simple as this. Some questionable coaching but a severe lack of talent is the issue. All the offseason acquisitions busted and we donāt draft and develop well. Anyone else pointing fingers elsewhere arenāt watching the games.
Something ironic in the richest owner owning the most poverty franchise.
Wizards still exist bro
Wizards own all their future picks and have quality young players (Sarr, Keyshawn, Tre, etc). Clippers are in a way, way worse position as a franchise.
Hey weāre actually not in a terrible situation weāre tanking
Some people probably believe the owner was involved in that 3rd party company paying off kawai.
Hi I’m some people.
Downvoting this is crazy when it should be obvious to any person with a brain what happened here
Are there BallmerBots or something lol
The only positive is the Clippers franchise has such a long track record of being terrible, that historically speaking, this isn’t even in their top 10 worst spans.
wow. truly a tragedy of a franchise.
Woow wtf loool
This is absolutely horrific to look at š
jesus that often
the clippers have been around since the fuckin 70sā¦? why is that fact trippin me out holy shit
That was when they were the Buffalo Braves. Started in 1970. Moved to San Diego in 1978 and changed their named to the Clippers. Moved to Los Angeles in 1984.
They need to move back to SD
They really need a floor general in the worst way.
I hear Chris Paul is available.
DJ Augustine
Get john stockton back from being a camp guard.
They should blow it up.
I also agree with this
I think they should keep playing like this, they might actually start winning after blowing the team up
If they get young guys they’ll actually win more gamea
What young guys. No one is giving up anything for Kawhi who a) is always injured, b) made it very clear he only wants to play in SoCal and c) IS UNDER LEAGUE INVESTIGATION AND CAN BE BANNED, especially after how hard the heat got hosed on Rozier.
So you might get one mid first for harden and one mid first for zubac. No one is giving up any real value for any of these guys
Yeah they should trade Zubac to OKC and get back their draft picks.
Well give em draft picks, we wonāt give them their draft picks tho lmfao
Letās trade them some of our draft picks and then 3 way a trade for Vuc and Harden forā¦ some more draft picks!
But Lawrence Frank plan for 26⁄27 free agents? Won’t they be a great draw for players who want to compete in LA with a front office that does very little to stay competitive and pay players extra on the side?
I honestly can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic
I don’t know either!
Absolutely. Buy some nitroglycerin
You dont want that, we’d probably be better if we did.
Do they even have another option?
Sources say they just need to changes the vibes dude.
Trade fucking everyone, just play guys from the B team. At least they will run harder. Fuck outta here
Good they deserve it
Funny how everyone must pay for the mistakes of a few
Sob City
Iāll never doubt his talent, but Iām not sure Iāve ever seen a star NBA player give less of a shit than Kawhi does. How long has it been this bad?
This motherfucker DOES NOT CARE. Might be one of the most mentally and emotionally checked out dude in pro sports, even when heās putting up decent stats.
At least Harden fucking looks like heās cares and is trying out there.
He canāt defend at all anymore. Heās genuinely harden level on defence now
Bro was making millions under the table sitting out games. Of course he doesnāt care.
Would never have guessed Kawhi would be the one to pull an Anthony Rendon in the NBA
You know shit is absolutely dire when Harden is the standard for caring and trying.
Harden does not fucking care. Harden only cares about his stats. This is the perfect team for him. Just put up a ton of empty stats with no pressure to win.Ā
The gift that keeps giving
The rise and fall of Kawhi Leonard needs to be studied. Also Zubac was getting All-Star nominations this time last year lol
Kawhi is averaging over 25 PPG at 49-38-97 splits. It’s the highest PPG since he has put up since the bubble season. He has also played the last 9 games in a row including 2 B2Bs and Clippers are 1-8.
I just meant his overall impact on winning
He was a lot worse last season.
Eh if you put klaw in barnes spot on the spurs, think heās contribute to winning lol.
they also have a middle of the pack strength of schedule remaining, meaning this is actually just how they perform
They need to kick CP3 off the team again
How was OKC able to fricking outsorce their tanking? insane shit
DEFCON 1 boys
Cam Boozer going to OKC, Jesus Christ lol
Let’s pray he flops. It’s the only avenue
We thank them for their sacrifice o7
They must have given up. Zubac played all game and scored 6 points? Against JJJ playing the 5???
I watched the game
Cam Spencer hit a couple tough threes and they quit.
Thunder are about to win two games on Thursday
I wish them the worst.
Trading Norman Powell was a huge mistake, thereās just no spark on that team
They traded Powell for Collins. They traded Mann for Bogi. They released Coffey and signed Beal. None of those moves have been an upgrade, although Beal never was healthy this season.
I thought the Bogi trade was their most solid move at the beginning of the season but yeah no. Glad yall didnāt sign Beal for too much.
so many headscratching moves in the offseason.
Much better to plant trees than to watch this team play
Free CP3, you fucking ingrates
Bring him home
Bros at home
I don’t know how they won the 3.
james edward harden jr
They need to trade him just so he can keep his playoff streak alive.
That’s when CP3 was coaching
They should just bring him back and have him play 40mpg. Can’t be any worse.
Ask him to go around the league and pick 10 g leaguers or two way contracts he thinks have potential. Let him play with them for the rest of the year. Might only give OKC a top pick this year instead of for the next 2 and Philly for the 2 after that
Only downhill from here
And yet they forced CP3 into retirement
To be fair he was a problem. It’d piss me off if my coworker told me I had to try harder when I was just trying to show up, collect my paycheck with minimal effort, then leave too.
Bitch made
The league is rigged! FFS š¤¦š»āāļøthunder bout to get a #1 draft pickā¦ gonna have to start throwing games to the LAC as a league
Adam Silver: Yes, all my plans are coming to fruition. The crown jewel franchise of the league, in the spectacular, vibrant city and media market of…Oklahoma City…
Thanks for making OKC a dynasty by handing them over AJ Dybantsa Clippers
Aspiration, CP3, Bradley “Younger Old Man” Beal, Zubac seemingly regressing out of nowhere. And we’re not even halfway through the season
They are the okc thunder of losing
OKC dynasty secured
Whatās the excuse now that CP3 is gone
Not great
They are checked out!!
Hawks trying to save the league by letting the Clippers win and avoid the Thunder getting a lottery pick but nobody wants to join us.
Lmao nice
disgusting team, kawhi should retire for being a scum and that garbage coach should resign, how do you lose 18 games out of 21 with a roster that good
Cause the clippers are shit
A team Kawhi, Harden, and Zubac should not lose 18⁄21 games.
How TF is Ty lue not fired yet lol
Why is the nba investigation so slow
Lawrence Frank still having a job is the most insane thing ever.
I think Ty Lue is the 2nd most overrated coach in the NBA behind Doc Rivers but this is way more L. Frank’s fault than it is Lue’s
Of course Frank was the one who made the SGA trade which will go down as the worst trade in history but lets just look at what he has done in the last 9-10 months.Ā
Last year’s trade deadline he traded K. Porter Jr to Milwaukee for M. Beauchamp. Porter has balled out since going to Milwaukee while the Clippers cut Beauchamp a week after the trade.Ā
3 team trade where he traded N. Powell for J. Collins. Powell has the best numbers of his career in Miami while Collins has the worst numbers of his career in LA. Also gave up a 2nd round pick in this deal
Free agency this year.Ā
3A. Signed B. Beal which worked out so well. He had the worst numbers of his career before the injury
3B.Ā Signed C. Paul who barely played and had the worst numbers of his career before he was kicked off the team
3C. Signed Brook Lopez who plays like 7 min a game and has the worst numbers of his career
How does L. Frank still have a job
Iāll never forget how bad of a coach he was during the NJ nets days and I was screaming for him to get canned. The fact that he landed a GM job and held on to it for so long just shows you donāt have to be good at your job at the nba, just gotta know the right people.
After all these years, the Clippers have finally arrived. They are the most talked about franchise (for all the wrong reasons) and have become a certified drama factory. The only positive they had going for them this season was a retirement tour for a franchise icon and they managed to botch that too.
Disaster
And isn’t it brilliant to watch it fall apart.
Crazy cause i considered their roster this year slightly better than last year at the beginning of the season
Zubac has just fallen off completely. His decline has been quick and unexpected.
Every other season with the current draft class I’d say they’re tanking for that No1 pick but, them boys are lose/lose this year cause they ain’t getting anything good from trying to win with the roster they have and they ain’t getting anything good from trying to lose from this year’s draft with the deals they’ve done. There’s no curse man, you’re responsible for your fate, you put yourself in this position, no matter what happens this year is gonna be memorable for the Clippers for all the wrong reasons.
and their coachs chair firm like a concrete cant believe this
Letās go!
Im still in awe over how many NBA pundits picked their over at the start of the season. I didnt think it would be this bad but what a fucking trainwreck
if they can have the inverted record of OKC it will be the most hilarious shit ever š
i know this is gonna sound funny coming from a clippers fan, but itās a really odd feeling seeing us be THIS bad
my whole (basketball) life the clippers have been a pretty damn good basketball team, never below .500.
just weird
Can’t believe they had Shai
I love this for the streetlights team.
Itās looking rough out there for the Clippers
Stupid Clippers giving their pick to the Thunder so no one can really enjoy this
It’s fine.
Sam Presti is about to be sued for elder abuse to Steve Balmer.
Karma
So what about Ballmer and Kawhai? Has the nba already paid off Pablo to sweep this under the rug?
at this point, itās like just donāt be that team
I canceled my clipper fan duel chanel, im not waisting money to see them loose and definitly not over paying at the stadium, management is and has always been a joke, you trade youth for old n busted players, kawai is a fraud on the court n off, this season is done. Wacthing kings hockey instead, clippers lost me.
Good. Fuck the Clippers
Finishing the season early to protect the environment. They’re real tree friends.
The Kawhi contracts (with an S) have been a disaster for the Clippers. Paul George trade with OKC set them back a decade or two lol.
Theyāre gonna come back bro donāt worry
The rest of the NBA should start tanking against these bums to get them out of the god damn lottery before they fuck the rest of the non OKC fans over.
