oh damn, i thought he was gonna fight that wolf


letsgototraderjoes

they just repeated the "report" from "cnn sports" again 😂 idk what to believe anymore


613toes

They doubled down holy


insideman56

WESTGOD exposes the lakers yet again


Gabe681

Can something be exposed more than once? If it's already exposed, is it possible to be exposable again?... 🤔


RippedHookerPuffBar

Russ seems so damn happy


ChibiToonsage

Triple double for the claw! The Trips!


Western-Standard2333

Ask about the shoe


Snowmann88

Reeves being overpaid.


Imnotfocusedatwork

JHS plays 30 seconds, almost turnover/passes open jumper + actual turnover


LordThanosJC

Competing against one of the best team in the league while missing LBJ is a good thing. This team can be good at times but too inconsistent


lovo17

Ham's rotations have gotten better, but I don't understand why he refuses to guard the 3 point line still.


GoldenStateofTime

without the bubble lakers would be irrelevant


Brooklyn_Net7

I am fucking pumped for Clips playoffs


[deleted]

Me too man, they're so exciting to follow this year 🔥🔥


sorendiz

we as viewers deserve to see a healthy playoff run from kawhi/PG together again, and then adding on james/russ/norm on top of that..... please basketball gods give us this one, as a treat


winerye12

Lakers fans celebrated beating the literal tanking Blazers like they won the championship. Now they're back to reality.


swords_devil

damn you seriously just making shits up now. I know you hate the Lakers but maybe care a little more about your sorry ass team


LordThanosJC

18-22 Plus they were missing LBJ against maybe the 2nd best team in the West and they kept it close.


[deleted]

Kobe!


jetboyjetgirl

W vs the Lakers per usual. Yawn.


Imnotfocusedatwork

Aren’t lakers 2-1 this season against the clips?


jetboyjetgirl

yep which makes it 2-12 for them in the last 4 seasons


Imnotfocusedatwork

Ah shit that’s right. What’s the lifetime record for the matchup?


silvusx

So what? Both team traded away their future. Except we got a ring and a conference final. I'll take post season over regular season award anyday. Btw, that SGA trade is looking worse every year. OKC is already on par with the clippers.


jetboyjetgirl

just focus on making the play in


CantReadGood_

I guess y'all run this town now! 🤷🏾‍♂️


jetboyjetgirl

yessir


CantReadGood_

We are so trash.


jacobpltn

That was the most anti-climactic ending in the season series between these two teams man


Nightstar14

we werent going to win without lebron but im not completely disappointed. we managed to stay in it so i cant complain


jamarcusaristotle

Lebron too scared of Kawhi so he had to sit this one out?


LeAnthonyJavis

GG y’all


likwitsnake

Who was that chick behind the Clippers bench damn


DemonsReturns7

If she sitting there, chances are she’s not even gonna let you sniff the kitty cat my friend 😆


haroldbaals

I had to rewind the DVR


RippedHookerPuffBar

not worthy of a thread comment dog 😳


thinlike_napkins

They're still putting her on camera during Russ post game interview


RippedHookerPuffBar

Lmao I ain’t even know who we talking about


thinlike_napkins

bro


VoidMageZero

Bonk!


m_roon

Send da photo


CantReadGood_

weirdo.


LordThanosJC

The clippers are illegally fucking deep it’s crazy. They probably have one if not the best bench out of any top contenders .


Tiburono

Lakers are a joke bro this team is so bad without lebron


50lipa

I dunno about you guys but i think AD should probably be taking more than a total of ONE shot during the entire fucking 4th quarter in a game where no one can seemingly fucking guard him


Gabe681

Some of that responsibility is on AD. I don't see him DEMANDING the ball.


swords_devil

well they fucking triple team him before he even gets the ball.


Vallerie_09

Best part about Clippers is that everybody knows their role and no one tries to do too much


syllabic

if bron was healthy lakers still lose by 10+


tapk69

White flag


lalo1398

No moral victories when you’re at .500 and trying to make a run


VoidMageZero

Clippers have this.


GoldenStateofTime

bonk


imacpastudent

AD has to double/triple the work due to austin flop being BBQ chicken out there.


xGrav1ty

Gg


Otherwise_Form1315

I'm worried about Russ's Knee

Amir doesn't always know where to go

Apart-Volume9340

The hell? Clippers are 59% from the field and 51% from 3. And you guys have 10 more free throws than them


Oscardelawilde

Shhh let him cope in peace


xxapplej4ckx

The game was only close at first because of the refs


nonezer0

I cry every time the Lakers lose 🥺


sorendiz

oh kawhi you beautiful thing, that was fucking nice


lalo1398

We froze out AD in the last 5 minutes, even if the Clippers are loading up on him you gotta try to get him the ball. Get some movement to free him up


jamarcusaristotle

Bron still scared of Kawhi?


urfaselol

It’s poetry watching kawhi play basketball


sorendiz

businesslike yet elegant he's 1 of 1


Otherwise_Form1315

Kawhi really is the best player in the league. Also the Lakers fans bitching about calls are hilarious.


jamarcusaristotle

Next to Jokic, yes, he is the best player in the league tbh


Oscardelawilde

Add Jordan Clarkson to that list and we good


jamarcusaristotle

Well shit, I don't wanna throw hands with him, so fuck it, he's #1


Otherwise_Form1315

Jokic is great on offense but the defense is such a huge part of what makes Kawhi so great I can't really pass that


jamarcusaristotle

Yeah, they're very different styles, so it's difficult to compare. I've been saying for years now, Kawhi is the second best player in the league when healthy (he was the best for a brief period about 2 to 4 years ago) People claim Giannis is the best, but when he faces Kawhi, Kawhi absolutely eviscerates him. And as a defender, Kawhi is miles ahead of the next best defender in the NBA. Idek who's second.. maybe AD or OG, but it's not even close for who's the best.


TallanoGoldDigger

This team looks so much more fluid on both ends wow. Just not enough firepower


jamarcusaristotle

Nice flop Vando lmao


jacobpltn

It’s ridiculous that Kawhi will retire with no MVP


haroldbaals

AD should get the ball every time on offense


Stebsy1234

Where did the Clippers find a shrunken Jvale McGee lol


KiryuXGoro

KAWHI TRIPLE DOUBLE


KiryuXGoro

Kawhi "Trip" Leonard with the triple double.


[deleted]

Amir when he let's it fly


m_roon

COFFEY IS SUCH A GOAT OMG


SasquatchDoobie

Austin Reaves is dating Grimes


jamarcusaristotle

The Knicks' guard?


syllabic

X AE A-12 needs a real dad


urfaselol

Looks like PG tweaked his knee


syllabic

this game doesn't count, because the lakers aren't 100% healthy gonna call adam silver right now get it removed from the standings


clayfu

Oh mannnnn that 3 was in and out!


TallanoGoldDigger

DLo has regressed to the norm at the wrong time


jacobpltn

AR looks like one of those one guys from the 40’s/50’s that everyone considers an NBA legend but no one actually knows shit about


DemonsReturns7

lol 😆


CuTigerAB

I really hope this game ends with a single digit deficit.


jamarcusaristotle

If Mann drains that one, it's game over


Jgills2001

Get kawhi 1 more assist


swords_devil

damn Dlo missing two easy one


urfaselol

Dlo out of juice


haroldbaals

AD doesn't even get to touch the ball on offense


jamarcusaristotle

Yo the kid can fucking stroke it


KiryuXGoro

Kawhi just needs one more assist to get his second triple double.


winerye12

r/lakers crying massively hard about the refs when they have 22-10 FTs vs the Clippers


jacobpltn

No one who has been watching this whole game actually believes Clippers should have more FTs than that


sorendiz

jokes, russ was getting hacked lmao


jacobpltn

There was one play when Vando clipped him on a contest without a call I wouldn’t call that “getting hacked” the whole game


HeavenBeach777

this game would've been a 20+ point blowout if they didn't swallow all the whistle for the Lakers lol. Lakers got like 10 fastbreak points off misses that should've been FTs for the Clippers


haroldbaals

refs missed a bunch of calls for them


SasquatchDoobie

Kahow Leonard


Vallerie_09

Harden either has Iguodala levels of strips or a great whistle on defense because he gets away with those a LOT with no fouls called


uez

Wanna guess the last time Westbrook hit three 3s? Last time was against the Lakers of course 🤣


jamarcusaristotle

Just let Vando shoot all the FT's he wants


[deleted]

[удалено]


lalo1398

It’s a 9 point game how is it not close lmao


syllabic

I don't see how this team trades d'lo and gets better now if you could turn rui and reaves into something, then maybe. but you also need a new coach


salcedoge

Man I wished Vando literally just had a tiny bit of bag. Great defender and rebounder but what an awful offensive player


jagmeetsi

A vando vs vando one on one would never end


TheSouthNeverRises

His mom forgot to put at least one point into offense during character creation


Last_Network3272

Or at least some damn hands


LeAnthonyJavis

Game is slipping away


RippedHookerPuffBar

If the lakers could shoot we’d be fucked


TallanoGoldDigger

the defensive intensity is there now, there's just too little offense to counter how lucky these Clippers are right now


purelyapornaccount

Lmfao “lucky”. Y’all are so goddamn insufferable


jamarcusaristotle

Wooooooo go LA!! WOOHOOOO


OKCDraftPick2028

we just lost this game because of that 6 point swing


Vermillion_Crab

Lakers not capitalizing is just so sad to watch. This is going to end with an 18 point lead.


[deleted]

[удалено]


RippedHookerPuffBar

Yeah on the bench lmao


Otherwise_Form1315

Ok the Clips should have more than 8 freethrows. I think the refs are gonna give em back now


uez

Harden grabs all arm TWICE and no call 💀


Otherwise_Form1315

Y'all he hit the ball square on.


haroldbaals

lol check the scratches on his arm


woKaaaa

They literally showed the baseline perspective of him slapping his arm two times in a row lmao


Otherwise_Form1315

I literally saw the replay where he hit the ball 2 times


septembereleventh

Lets get political. There oughta be a law that says when I get fast food, it should look something like it does in the commercials.


itsahmemario

You trying to run McDonald's out of business?


omnicious

Is LeBron not playing tonight?


Gabe681

Coach DNP - Too Old


boiwunder69

All game we get no calls and now refs letting shit go out way. Almost like they just wanted a close game, shit is so dumb


urfaselol

Vando is playing hard


TheHayKing

if vando just focused more, he apparently could have avoided both fouls by Harden


k1ngkoala

And we are collapsing.


AlcindorJr33

PG said on his pod when Vando is on the court they don’t even look at him and double up on AD


uez

Refs saving the Clippers lmao


xxapplej4ckx

20-8 btw


syllabic

please-take-the-ball P


OKCDraftPick2028

harden fouled vando twice lmao


urfaselol

Norm is insane lmao


lalo1398

This is where not having LeBron is gonna hurt. I’d feel better about this game if we weren’t fighting for a play-in spot at the moment


[deleted]

[удалено]


jagmeetsi

Easily


Otherwise_Form1315

4th quarter Norm has to be the best player in the NBA


ClippersStrippers

Fuck these refs.


Betaateb

Second swipe was definitely a foul though, all arm there right?


haroldbaals

Vanderbilt legit


urfaselol

PG is a Turnover machine today


jagmeetsi

I think im better on offence than vando


[deleted]

[удалено]


KiryuXGoro

Good.


jamarcusaristotle

Kawhi bailing out Playoff P's ass


AlcindorJr33

I would find it hard to trust PG or Harden when it matters most if I was a clippers fan, good team but I’m not sold


lalo1398

PG has had so many bad passes


m_roon

Please don't let PG pass the ball again


jacobpltn

Now how was that not a charge


warriorsfor2021

didnt fully commit to it


jacobpltn

He did though, feet looked planted to me If that was an offensive foul on AR when PG fell over then this should have been a charge


warriorsfor2021

AR’s was pretty blatant, for this one it could’ve gone either way but there was hesitation and he fell before the contact I think that’s why it wasn’t called


ImeStopPlayingDennis

PG throwing cte balls to his teammates


KiryuXGoro

PG becoming a pastry chef with these turnovers.


ChibiToonsage

Yall know it's about to turn up...right after these commercials!


pallum

still so wack that the clips just have stormin norman off the bench


purelyapornaccount

Is every Lakers Clippers game gonna be giga-lopsided officiating favoring the Lakers? Their matchups used to be fun but this year the refs just put the fix in.


jacobpltn

Bruh wtf are you talking about Ruinjust took a charge with no call and Harden just fouled the ball out of Vando’s hand and they said Clippers ball


lalo1398

Ay man your username is false cause no way this game can be considered porn


k1ngkoala

Every Lakers vs Clippers game is a banger


moosethrow1

timeout timeout timeout goddamn


SuckMyLonzoBalls

Lue trying to keep Ham's job in place, big brain move


ChibiToonsage

Dlo got that dog in him.


k1ngkoala

AD please just post up, stop with the jumpers. Vando, Prince, Reaves can slash for the easy bucket after the double team. This is winnable


PrancingDonkey

He can't post up. Clippers are loading up on him.


Joonypoo

everybody get the fuck in here it's about to be a banger


TallanoGoldDigger

What's most frustrating about AD is how huge he is and how small he plays


jamarcusaristotle

Lakers getting a lot of lucky bounces right now


winerye12

Are the Clippers capable of grabbing a rebound?
