Kawhi chose to play for a cursed franchise in a city where he has no respect to play with Pandemic P

Being a playmaker is still the most valuable skill for all players in the NBA. It completely can kill someone's gameplan and make defending you extremely difficult. For you simple-minded nikkas, I get it. You see the moves, you see the efficiency and how Leonard does it and Bron's is rougher around the edges but as Magic proved, Bron proved, and Bird proved, being a lead initiator is everything.

Kawhi underestimated how much Parker and Lowry helped who are both floor generals. Even if they aren't tremendous lead initiators, they can get you the ball in the right spots and make it easier for you. LAC clearly needs one as PG13 is another that badly needs a lead initiator or floor general. Only a few guys are both like Chris Paul. Let this be a lesson. PG's matter more than bigs in today's NBA if the big isn't a lead initiator. If he is, he is extremely impactful. If LAC had more money I would try to land Al Horford as well. His playmaking as a big would make life a lot easier for the Clippers. Even Rubio or Rondo would help. I see why they wanted Darren Collison so badly. He's an excellent floor general.

Breh as I said all year the clippers are a horrible passing team. No one on their team is an elite passer. You can see how its difficult for them to get easy shots or how simple passes can't be executed by the team. They do not have have cerebral elite passers like say the lakers (lebron and rondo) and it shows in a series like this.

Also with the spurs the offense was so crisp that folks got open looks, easy shots. Plus manu, parker and duncan may not have been considered elite passers but they were very good passers.

So either the clips got to get a true point guard who is a very good passer or the offense needs to get folks open for easy passes. And even if the offense improves I am not sure if the current players are good enough passers.

One last thing the clips coaching staff did not place joker and murray in enough pick and rolls to make them play defense during the series. Joker and murray have been allowed to chill on defense the last two series. I don't expect lebron and the Lakers to make that same mistake in the conference finals.

That's a rare triple L decision

Uncle Dennis is a fraud. He was better off getting advice from Dennis Rodman after a 3 day coke binge

He WILLINGLY chose to play with Paul George who is stupid enough to get finessed by a russian stripper twice and fell in love :deadmanny:


Pandemic P said fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, I love you :ohlawd:

Doc Rivers is an ashy voice fraud who was carried to a ring by KG and the big 3

Alex Caruso skipping his sisters wedding while Lou Williams hanging out with cac rappers and strippers :heh:

The Coli told me Kawhi single-handedly won a championship last year. Y’all owe the Raptors a handwritten apology
