Kawhi not playing game 4

  1. Should’ve been the case ever since game 2.

    Awful injury management by this team. (again)

  2. LOLLLLL out INDEFINITELY. Goodbye Kawhi. No one cares if you love LA. Hope you like the east coast

  3. It’s the right move. I’m a huge Kawhi fan but the team not knowing what they were getting from him hurt more than helped these last 2 games

  4. I believe PG and James can hang with Kyrie and Luka. We need our role players to be what they’ve been all year and step up

  5. This is why you guys got James harden. You guys are fully capable of winning if PG and Harden combine for 50+ and the role players chip in as well.

  6. As much as I like kawhi, he’s my fav player, this is for the best. Hopefully the team can win today’s game, if they played how they played game 1, then we got this. Clip gang or don’t bang.

  7. Why is there so much knee inflammation if there is no structural damage to his knee? I’m not a doctor but that doesn’t make sense. His knee just randomly became swollen to the point he can barely run?

    I do appreciate him trying to play though.

  8. Honestly should just retire at this point. He can’t play entire season, he can’t play half a season. He can’t play in the playoffs. What’s the point of paying so much if he’s gonna be on the bench when it matters most

  9. 25 from PG, 20 from Harden, Zu, Mann, Norm, and Russ all need 10-15. That gets you 85 points minimum. Role players gonna have to step up and find us an extra 20-30 points to win. Assuming Luka doesn’t go for his 50 point game today lol

  10. It’s just a tale as old as time at this point. Almost feel like the dude needs to sit the first 30 games of every season, than play 35-40 out of the last 50 to have any shot of making it through the playoffs. His body simply can’t hold up through an entire season.

  11. This is still a very winnable game. If harden and zu can keep up their play and we get more from russ and pg i like our chances

  12. Good. No distractions. No extra obligations to have unfit players take shots. Smooth team basketball and we can win easily today.

    LFG

  13. Clippers play better with just one of Harden and Kawhi. They haven’t managed to mesh all season long. Harden has been delivering so far in the playoffs and should pop off again today, knowing he’s the main guy.

  14. This is the better decision, it must kill him but it is the right one. If the team doesn’t advance in the playoffs this year then at least he has a better chance at recovering his body for the next season and not taking away (even more) lasting damage in his life after the NBA

  15. Sucks that we wasted games 2 and 3, but it’s ok. This was the right move.

  16. 2020- Denver choke

    2021- ACL tear

    2022- Recovery from ACL tear

    2023- Torn meniscus

    2024- Unnamed knee injury

    Damn

  17. And we gave him 150 million for the next couple of years. I sincerely hope Lue and Lawrence are gone this offseason.

  18. This settles it. Kawhi just cannot stay healthy when it matters the most. The team cannot keep having to deal with this. I hope Kawhi retires.

  19. Good. Look, don’t blame Kawhi. Dude is injured; he cannot play a full season and post season. He has bad knees and cannot be a good NBA player. Clippers need to move on from him. He could retire. Maybe he will. But maybe he’ll keep playing as long as we are paying million$ and keeping him on the roster. At this point (and probably a couple years ago), it’s the team’s decision. It’s the Clippers’ mistake to make.
