Kawhi's decision to go to the Clippers as the reigning finals MVP in a weak conference made no sense in the first place.

It made all the sense. He fucking HATED being in Canada (from the taxes, to the nightlife, to the weather) and wanted to go home (he's from LA). He's already won his rings and secured his legacy. He wasn't playing for that shit no more.

[@shorewall]

He and his uncle were trying to force their way to LA from the Spurs. The Spurs correctly diagnosed that he had a degenerative knee, and it would never truly get better. But Kawhi got his own doctor to lie about it, because he wanted to get that bag in LA. Spurs traded him to a contending team outside of their conference, and he won a chip. But he was never going to stay anywhere he went. Then he completed his master plan of getting to LA. Too bad he ain't won shit since, but that wasn't part of the plan. Getting a bag in LA was always the plan. And he has gotten the bag, and the injury karma for such a scheme.

My theory is that Kawaii wanted Clippers to give up all their draft picks to basically make rebuilding impossible, and bascially force the clippers to pay him well into his 30s and avoid ever have to settle for a vet minimum contract. James Harden is also now part of that action. Pretty sure Clippers are gonna give big contract to James Harden soon cause they have been back to a corner that is the only option.

[@demonreacts7816]

Kawhi is an undercover Laker who’s sole purpose rn is to torment and bankrupt the Clippers💀

[@jjcometa9333]

Atp they don't have any choice either. They signed kawhi to an extension. Harden is a free agent. PG has a player option he can either opt in to and clippers can trade that, it's not gonna get them a whole lot tho but it's 1 year so that might interest some team willing to clear cap space next year. Or PG might decline and maybe they resign him. Westbrook is for sure gonna be declining his player option. So do you resign 1 of them and maybe get under the tax. Or sign them to run it back again and risk going into luxury tax, which is gonna penalize them even more as time goes on they're on there. Again they don't have a choice unless they blow it up and decide to trade kawhi and in turn PG might just decline the option as he doesn't want to rebuild. At that point tho you're gonna go to your new stadium with a bunch of nobodies trying to tank.

The fact that we saw a healthy Kawhi and PG in the playoffs year one and the blew a 3-1 lead should’ve been enough to know this team would never be able to get it done. These guys aren’t getting younger, Kawhi will regress in terms of production with these injuries. The few games the Clippers won were without Kawhi. I’m glad he didn’t re-sign in Toronto now tbh. Great player in his peak but needs a deep roster to support him.

I think he would be a great addition to Giannis. Clippers would get in return an all time scorer and 3point shooter in Lillard Clippers need a consistent scorer to their roster and Lillard is a top 3 scorer and clutch player in the league It’s a win win in my books

@ColdHoops it’s true but if you are Milwaukee you need to gamble. Giannis played 2 playoff games in 2 years but he played over 65 games each year so it’s just bad luck that he gets injured around playoff time Kawhi most probably will miss a lot of games but in my opinion they should gamble with him since Lillard wasn’t a good fit to them and there isn’t much trading value on him due to his age Also because Milwaukee has a decent all around team they wouldn’t force Kawhi to play every single game in the regular season On the other hand Lillard is a player the clippers could really use right now scoring wise

@@emilfrederiksen.1622 and I’m not disagreeing. All I’m saying is there are previous times they said blow it up and they didn’t and they won. It’s not all black and white.

[@gilanganugrahfajar5502]

I think 2018 raptors is better than this clippers, cus yeah they got destroyed by LeBron cavs without Kyrie but they finished as number 1 team in Eastern conference so that team is good team and only need few adjustments and need another player to step up like Fred van vleet

I went on vacation to LA in November 2019 and caught one of PG-13’s first games as a Clipper (I think Kawhi was injured at the time)… anyway I went to Staples Center and saw PG-13 set the Clippers single game record for most 3PM in a game. It’s been all downhill since for them it seems.

Russ is such a beautiful soul, that's all I can say

[@robertweekes5783]

Clippers don’t want to give Paul George the max because he does rank in the playoffs. Sometimes he’s not a number one guy and we already have a number one in Kawai and we’re trying to keep James Harden too! It’s tough to swing it. 😂

[@karlberry3]

Kawhi played every game in 2020's playoffs which was 13 games, 11 games of a possible 18 in 2021, 2 games of a possible 5 in 2023, and 2 games of a possible 6 in 2024. That's 28 playoff games out of the Clippers' 43 playoff games since the '19-'20 season. Where is this "4 of 19 since 2019" coming from? Some *really* bad math?

[@nonamewillbegiven2412]

2020 isn't a real playoffs

[@karlberry3]

Bet. He still played 11 playoff games the following year before tearing his ACL. 7 against Dallas, 4 against Utah. 4/19 since 2019, how?

[@KKOPPONG]

I would’ve moved the team to Seattle immediately after realising the Clippers need their own arena.

[@tarico4436]

Regarding Westbrook's statement. The first part was defensive enough: sounds like Russ wrote that or dictated that to a writer. But the overall writing style doesn't sound like how he talks, nor what he talks about. Someone else wrote that statement, then Russ gave it his imprimatur.

[@Pickle_Rick345]

Casey i love ur vids and appreiciate the 4 vids a week. Could u do a vid about SAC soon and any trades they could make?

[@farrdawgjoker7087]

I watched the Clippers interview about their future and listening to the speech I was sold that their widow is open and a championship is possible in that new arena next year. But I woke up this morning and was super hung over and realized I was far to intoxicated for any critical or fact based thought. Today I've learned I should never watch Clippers interviews because because I believe dumb statements with zero statements that are factual in any way. Lol

[@bobphan]

Blow it up completely and move the franchise to Seattle. Makes no sense why LA has two NBA teams.

[@Fixundfertig1]

You are a true AM hoops fan when you always have already seen the video that he recommends at the end even though you'll see it again for good measure 😂

Legend!

[@thinlion01]

I know he can afford it but banning people for supporting the other team is bad business. I doubt the NBA will let him
