  • We might not see the old Kawhi Leonard back. And for what it’s worth, and for all his hot takes, Stephen A. Smith might have just hit the nail on the head with this one.

    As a fan, I must say the Clippers really messed up back in 2019. They have no building blocks, no draft picks and a "superstar" who does not play in the Playoffs.

      Facts. It is unfortunate but it was never going to be worth the cost when your star player is looking to put in 50 games a season then can't be ready for the playoffs

      But let's hope they can turn things around soon.

      @@_fastbreak Turn it around? They have zero draft picks and no building blocks. The West is only getting stronger. Clippers will be a lottery team for the next 6 seasons. Please stop acting like their is a solution to this.

    I don't believe Kawhi leaving team U.S.A might 🤔 be more the Clippers asking not to play considering with the new stadium no PG they will depend more on Kawhi to be the available attractions for the fan base

      The Clippers should have said NO from the first ask. Or let Kawhi give them about $20m back off his salary from last season. Usually I stay about letting athletes do what they want in the offseason. But for Kawhi he can't get his Clippers wins in the playoffs the Olympics should not be on his radar

    He’ clearly has degenerative knee issues. He’s just the longer form version of Brandon Roy, Derek Rose, Penny etc.

    Clippers will win a championship with Kawhi.
    How?
    1. Clippers had always had a brutal schedule sharing a arena. Staples, crypto.
    2. Their playoffs schedule only had 1 day rest in-between compared to the rest of 2 days
    3. Kawhi played like he had a capable number 2 but he never had one.
    4. Kawhi plays in a team that's constructed like a normal team, a 1 , a 2, a 3, a 4, a 5. Clippers had 2 wings who played the same roles.
    5. Kawhi knows hes gotta give his all cos Clippers chose him
