Thunder get the Clippers pick outright. That could be trouble.
Meanwhile, neph screwed us big time, but we'd still be dealing with this crap if he stayed.
Nephew knew he had just signed the 3 years $150 mil extension already. Now it is okay for him to show his real injuries.

Yeah, this is beating a dead horse at this point, but I'm glad he is Clippers problem and not ours.
Having Wemby now helps.
This. It would be scary to hand OKC a top five pick in next year's draft.
Yeah, this is not good news. It can screw us as one of our main rivals can get stronger and it could tip the balance. He needs to man up, get better and play.
They're just at the start really. They have a good coach who's been extended, an owner who can afford losing money and a market that will always be there.
Just a matter of patience and steadiness in their management
Clippers fans know that they're in good hnds and it's just a matter of time now. Fincancially and talent wise Jeanie Buss won't be able to compete long
With the CBA teams have to spend their money anyway, I don't know the specifics, just guessing, imo they'd rather give that money to one dude with Star status who even low % still has a shot at being on the court rather than overpaying a few average untradable players.
Hey they avoided being scammed by PG this summer at least! ^^
Kawhi isn't helping build a brand, but if you have neither him nor PG, all while having no draft picks and unble to trade bc of luxury taxes constraints... It at least gives the illusion that the team is still elite.
They have to be patient bc of the PG trade that took all they draft capital, there's nothing else to do really
I think between the weak east, the race for Flagg post ASG and their defensive minded coach, Clippers won't be bottom 10 even without Kawhi all season
Ironically Kawhi is easily the most untradeable contract in the nba right now. 150 million for a guy who first year into his contract and 5 months removed from a known knee issue, either had another knee issue that required surgery or had surgery on the knee to resolve whatever the issue was at the end of last season and he is still not healthy to the point the gm won' t even commit to him playing opening night which is still a month away.
Thank god spurs don't have to deal with this deaf mute idiot who just seems to do whatever he wants and leaves everyone else to explain his decisions. The one person we never hear explaining kawhi injury issues is kawhi himself.
Now this Law dude who is a clippers reporter is on the verge of crashing out running interference for kawhi as people realize he knew all along kawhi was not healthy but sent out that "everything is fine guys" tweet anyway. Moron.
We won…..Wemby is a spur! Take the win people
I hope that the Spurs will be in that race post ASG. Flagg with Wemby would be the perfect core for the Spurs in the future to fight OKC
The difficulty for PATFO is to convince Wemby and his appe e for greatness or PO ambitions.
Not sure how the Spurs could tank with him being healthy tbh
I'm personnaly counting on ATL to get a lottery pick, without major injuries Spurs are a PO team bc of their defense
I hope Atlanta is, so that we don’t need to be. It would also be very difficult to do with a healthy Wemby.
didn't think so back then, but losing leonard turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
It’s the trade that keeps on giving. We still have the CHI FRP & SRP, plus the Minny swap and pick, acquired using the TOR #8 pick acquired from the Poeltl trade back to TOR. The Minnesota 20131 FRP will be THIRTEEN YEARS after the original trade. We cashed out on both players, getting ultimately two FRPs for DeRozan (one direct and one for Thad Young, acquired in the trade: The CHI 2025 pick, and Malaki), and one FRP for Poeltl that PATFO converted into an unprotected pick and a swap.
in a non-player related "off-season" move, ESPN continues to shred itself of all its basketball analyst talent by terminating Zac Lowe's contract. i guess they didn't care for his reluctance to constantly talk about lebron and the lakers. we're left with the likes of shelbourne, perkins, occasionally stephen a., and windhorst.
Disney is making a lot of cuts across divisions, I believe. Of course we won't see the horrific leadership take any haircuts that got them here in the first place.
What a wild move. Makes the Woj decision seem less random now -- he saw the writing on the wall.
i miss columnist Lowe. so much more interesting than TV personality Lowe
Columnist Lowe was about player and team analysis. When you go on TV, they turn you into a gossip columnist.
one of the few columinsts who i would regularly look forward to reading when i saw they got a piece out. zach lowe, bill simmons, and ludden
guy cant catch a break
whatever slim hope there is of the 2025 pick conveying takes a hit if Williams is hampered. only other center they have is Nick Richards. last year they played Grant Williams at the 5 quite a bit down the stretch

I think there was chatter that they should go for Donovan Clingan in the draft. Probably should have.
