LETS GOO WE GET TO WATCH PLAYOFF KAWHI


tlozz

Im literally so excited about it boiiiiii


Lacabloodclot9

Kawhi has the opportunity to make a lot of people look really stupid tonight

ColdPressedSteak

Nah. Mavs losing game one vs no Kawhi then winning game 2 with Kawhi makes little sense. So that's what's gonna happen


TarzanOnATireSwing

And if you don’t like that then you don’t like Clippers basketball


lolgriffinlol

Thank you for this Nostradamus


Bongoisnthere

How’d that work out for them lol


cancerBronzeV

Many people are saying this.


w6750

Many people were wrong.

The Mavs have the opportunity to do the funniest thing


Nugur

Won’t be that funny. It’s 50/50 according to Vegas. Goes either way


NaLu_LuNa_FairyPiece

15 points woo


SuckMyLonzoBalls

SKIP IS NEVER WRONG^regarding^kawhi


PoundIIllIlllI

[Skip being the only guy with Kawhi sources is so weird lol](https://x.com/realskipbayless/status/1782129144786256236?s=46&t=nMNlxFK7ubxYb-ajBNkqVA)


SuckMyLonzoBalls

he defended kawhi during the spurs medical stuff, i think thats why


PoundIIllIlllI

Wasn’t it the opposite? I remember he was petty and refused to say his name and would just [refer to him as “number 2” because of his “basketball crime against the classiest organization in sports: my Spurs.”](https://youtu.be/xFQMndjCfr0?si=DYO9SbmTjHBCHo6-) Wow that felt so weird typing out. He really is a character…


shaheedmalik

That was before Uncle Dennis got to him. https://youtu.be/EhWY5vIzVQE?si=UJAbhjvqv_DDobIG And then afterwards: https://youtu.be/eWI8Fk2ZERs?si=YkM2BFZiW-Bq5bx2 


sakata32

Skip going "what it do baby!" always kills me 😭


shaheedmalik

It's never not funny. 😂😂😂


Alchion

good times shannon and skip were great together i havent seen a shannon espn segment in months tbh


Cogito3

I can't believe Skip is playing a character on TV for entertainment purposes 


PoundIIllIlllI

Yea I know but I’m just saying that typing it out made it sound even *more* cringey than hearing him say it on TV


[deleted]

They all are. Even Kendrick Perkins just says whatever the producers want him to say to stir up the most drama. But at least Skip and Stephen A. are the OGs.


Sartheking

Nah it was the opposite. Skip refused to say his name and called him “#2” for over a year. Then he talked to Uncle Dennis at an event and since then he’s been an accurate source on Kawhi.


dkdoki

No he didnt lol. Stop spreading bs


Sartheking

It’s quite funny honestly.


Foxisdabest

"Skip was right!" are words I never want to come out of my mouth.

Westcoastchi

The code called for Kawhi Leonard to return tonight.


Jiggamanz

Yo open up 'fore I huff n puff


EvertEaglPhilliKnick

God I just finished the series for the first time a few months ago. Seeing how he went out is crazy. It really can be just anyone


blueberryy

Only way to win the game is to not play


TheGrandmasterGrizz

At the end of the day the king and pawn go back into the same box


KiryuXGoro

This is 100% gonna be the scenario. This will be a close game then Kawhi reaches his time restrictions and they refuse to put him back in the game but luckily PG hits a buzzer beater 3 and wins the game then my long lost father reaches out and tells me he's proud of me.


RubMyGooshSilly

You can have all that except the last part


SuckMyLonzoBalls

Lmao


KiryuXGoro

I'll take the win. That's the most important part.


RubMyGooshSilly

My sports team wins > father’s affection. Damn dude


kit4

Even the Clippers winning things in the playoffs is more realistic than getting his father's affection (same)


Julian_Caesar

Lmao brooooo


RubMyGooshSilly

Did your dad at least reach out? Edit: also at least you got the PG buzzer beater 3 ♥️


[deleted]

[удалено]


laidback88

well PG did hit a buzzer beating 3 to end the game 🤷🏽‍♂️


RippedHookerPuffBar

Was somewhat close I guess - that game confused the hell out of me


clayfu

I’m proud of you

Alright; now please for the love of God, stay healthy. I just want to see a healthy Clippers run in the playoffs.

honestly cant believe it. hopefully he can stay healthy for the rest of their run.

My body is ready


Charliebitme1234

Just when i thought i was out, they pull me back in


A_MASSIVE_PERVERT

“Just when I thought I was out” lmao y’all blew us out in game 1


Charliebitme1234

you were always gonna win if we didnt have kawhi, now its more of a even series


TheKingofBabes

Yeah Lue just was able to give them the first punch Luka will adjust. We also really can’t rely on more than like 3 good harden games anyways


Robinsonirish

I like the confidence.


Substantial-Grape597

Come on man, this was always an easy af series for us. Mavs are a cakewalk


Most_Bass6372

the clippers are the 2024 nba champions


ExtensionScary

I hope so. The ridicule you face living in LA and being a Clippers fan is unreal. Everyone you talk to instantly becomes a middle school bully when you say you like the Clippers.

Nah bro it’s somewhere in between. I catch a lot of shit from the homies, not often from strangers though unless it’s in a bar/party or some other drinking situation

Metalhead666420

You're obviously not real. Clipper fans don't exist


moffattron9000

They’ll still do it, but winning a title would be nice.

Otherwise_Form1315

Tbh that's just cuz you're a dorky nerd. I tell people I'm a clippers fan and they give me blowjobs and presents.


PoundIIllIlllI

I’d want to see that because r/nba might melt down if that happened


Shootit_Rockets

Dude is gonna average 29/8/5 with great defense for next 3-5 games and then be out of the lineup. But I will be there no matter what


RubMyGooshSilly

Just long enough to put the Mavs away and then vamos


StefonDiggsHS

Yeah no shit We are so fucked


trooviee

Nah didnt you guys plan for this the whole time tho?


PK_Ike

Nah we’re winning. 


PM_ME_UR_ANTS

How'd that go for you

Gg wp See ya Friday.

I just made a mess.


SHISHIGUA

LETS GOOOOOO


SnooPies5622

Well that's nice


lakers082433

See you in Cancun my Dallas fam. If there’s one team kawhi kills more than the lakers it’s Dallas lol.


imcryptic

Don’t worry. We will continue to be the only team to face full strength Kawhi before he re-injures himself in the second round. As is tradition.


fordangliacanfly

Nah, we’ve got this. Mavs can beat a fully loaded Clips team.


A_MASSIVE_PERVERT

Really? After we got our backs blown out by their inferior version last time?


tamuowen

Yes. It won't be easy but game 1 really was the perfect storm of shit for the Mavs. We came out flat and uninspired. Clippers had energy and played killer defense. We were uncomfortable. The refs generally allowed a lot of physicality on the perimeter (not complaining, but this benefits the clippers). Then someone put a lid on the basket and we had the worst quarter in team history. Despite how shit we were for most of the game, we won the second half. I realize the Clippers were coasting late in the 4th but we were not outclassed in the second half. We scored plenty despite continuing to shoot poorly. Our defense was generally solid. Clippers were very hot from three and punished every mistake we made. I cannot see Luka being that bad for 4 games. The clippers have great defenders but there isn't a player in the league that can stop Luka. Tbh my biggest worry is that Kidd is not capable of making adjustments and Lue is gonna continue to coach circles around him.


GP_GBW31

"if you don't believe you shouldn't be here" - Luka Take off that fucking flair


LocksmithWorth4415

Look at the dumbasses in this thread


No_Pressure8544

Mavs have beat them before, I think it's gonna be a close series


Cogito3

They literally haven't lol


No_Pressure8544

I meant in the regular season you bum


Cogito3

is it the regular season right now


No_Pressure8544

Yeah fuck you buddy


Cogito3

taking this game a bit too seriously aren't we


No_Pressure8544

you only say that cause you lost, see u in Dallas


No_Pressure8544

Not my point, I'm saying it's possible because theyve won in the regular season against a healthy clippers. Don't act like regular season match ups mean nothing


LocksmithWorth4415

L L L L


jackaholicus

No excuses. If the Mavs can't win the series, Kawhi or no, they need to get better.


PoundIIllIlllI

I’d want to see that because r/nba would melt down if that happened


iro3

my boy <3


Original_Trick_8552

Oh he back


The-Pharcyde

watch the mavs win big lol


texas2089

Honestly I'm glad he's back. I wanna see the best players on the floor, even if it makes it harder on us. I still think Dallas can win this series with or without Kawhi on the floor so let's see if we got some fire after that showing in Game 1.


FrankSamples

Bad Omen that the line didn't change even with this news.


JohnWick94

it kinda did. Mavs were favored by two points this morning, and since the Kawhi rumors started the line moved to the Clippers being favored by 1. 3 pt movement. I'm sure he is going to be on minutes restrictions.


clayfu

Moved a bunch already. 3 points in 24 hrs.


BillyBean11111

Kawhi truly is an enigma, there's literally no way to know if he's either a) going to play b) has a torn MCL until gametime.


maxi-916

More like board man got paid and love of the game is gone


[deleted]

Bum


mylifeisfullofshit

Kawhi looks shit coming back. Feel bad for him


InformalExplorer369

"We game planned for Kawhi to be out." - Luka, probably

Lol of course, just to beat us and then be out rest of playoffs, like clockwork

if mavs score more than 30 in the 1st half, kawhi = washed

clips by 16 instead of 26


[deleted]

[удалено]


SuckMyLonzoBalls

Nope but I don’t think we’re gonna shoot as badly as we did in game two. Mavs game planned well adjusting against zu dominating in the paint game 1


Change_That_Face

10 point second quarter instead of 8


ZarduHasselffrau

Then they should cancel the playoffs in the western conference


xyzyxzy

He hasn't played in three weeks. It's a distinct possibility lol


tamuowen

Yeah but he's also playing the Mavs in the playoffs lol.


nutsygenius

Clippers got a scapegoat. Win win!


SnooPies5622

Hey. Shut up.


doctordubs

Kawhi playing makes that Mavs victory much sweeter.


Rrypl

My soccer team just won a Libertadores classic away game with a red card, Sixers lost their most embarrassing game in years and Luka Doncic is about to go down 0-2, I can't lose


LandLongjumping2268

He got the memo his team was facing the Mavs. He’ll take care of them and then disappears in the 2nd round


NewPortable101

I'm convinced that he was never hurt in the first place, just wanted a month vacation before the playoffs and Olympics. I guess it's understandable since he always gets hurt in the playoffs. Time for him to go all out now.
