Well, at least it's an early game, so we can get this over with sooner. Evening up the series, I mean.

Go Clippers!

I'm honestly over Kawhi and PG, had a beer or two but my Fandom is being tested. Sorry guys, I never want to hear anyone talk **** on AD unless Kawhi and PG are included.

Drunk edit: Yes I'm bitter. We spent the last 4 seasons talking load management this save for the post season that and it has lead to jack ****. We waste the whole season load managing our stars and they still get hurt. Load management is a myth.

Game 3 was the chance to go ahead. I'll be shocked if they win today and I don't expect it to even be close tbh.

This is the same routine as two years ago. They're just going to pretend it's day to day to milk as many ticket sales as they can in the short term, but he's done for the season. Deep down, we all knew this was coming when he was ruled out for game 3.

Serious question: is anyone still excited for any more seasons of this core?

Nope. Ready to tear it down and start over.

Clippers will never win. Cp3/Blake or both were hurt every playoffs. The one time they weren't they blew a 3-1 lead.
Now since Kawhi and PG teamed up had the bubble season, Kawhi torn acl, Kawhi still wasn't back the next yr and PG got Covid, and now both of them are out again lol

This **** is laughable

Franchise still tried, they went for it, just didn’t pan out like expected. I imagine Ballmer will have us contending again in around 5 years or less. Better than what the org was under previous ownership, so it could always be worse.

honestly, this is just sports. i mean you try, you fail, you try, you fail. sports is just a microcosm for our own lives in doing the best you can when most everything is out of your control, and the reward that's more likely to come (though not ever guaranteed), the more you put into it.

whether the team actually makes something of it (it's not impossible for me to see the team trade paul george, reform around kawhi, and have a better supporting cast with bones/mann/pg's return creating a properly fitting team for him and go far), or they don't (full blowup)

ballmer is a smart guy and he's in this to compete and win. lawrence frank, too. this team has consistently turned a bunch of nothings into big things, so whether it's next year, or 3 years from now, or 5, i have a lot of faith in them finding their way back to contention eventually.

This is all in hindsight , but the biggest pain I feel right now is from losing SGA and a bunch of picks for Paul George.

I am disappointed about no Kawhi and no PG for the Playoffs.. but I am ready for whatever happens over the next week. Clippers win a game or win the series .

I’m open to a miracle happening.

I think it should be Covington because he is definitely a better defender than Morris. Lue must just be hoping that Morris gets hot on offense

Agreed.

I have the same burst balloon feeling that I had when Brand got hurt after the Cassell led playoff run.

Difference is, I now have faith in this ownership versus the faith I had with Sterling as owner and Baylor as GM.

If Clippers had won game 2, Kawhi would've played in game 3 and today. He's not interested in playing in a long series.

Ty really is a good playoff coach, even if I question some of his choices.

We shouldn't be anywhere near this game, or last.
