Kyle Lowry recently opened up about how Kawhi Leonard’s style of play earned him a bit of a notorious reputation among some folks. This time around, another one of Leonard’s former Los Angeles Clippers teammates in Lou Williams, who is now with the Atlanta Hawks, has decided to apeak out on Kawhi’s work ethic. In […]

The LA Clippers are oddly in a good spot for the upcoming NBA season, simply because they are not going to be held to any expectations. With Kawhi Leonard expected to be out for most if not all of the regular season while recovering from ACL surgery, no one is expecting LA to seriously compete […]

The fact that the NBA resumes play in a bubble in Disneyworld feels like a fever dream a year later. While there were a handful of crazy stories that stemmed from that interesting time, one of the most memorable involved Lou Williams, who was playing for the Los Angeles Clippers at the time. Lou Williams […]

The Los Angeles Clippers are already facing an uphill battle next season with Kawhi Leonard on the sidelines. But the NBA scheduling gods aren’t doing them any favors, either. After a jam-packed NBA season last year, the Clippers have been given the most stretches wherein they’ll have to play five games in seven days. They’re […]

Rajon Rondo is officially back with the Los Angeles Lakers, joining other guys rewinding it with the squad, including Dwight Howard, Trevor Ariza and Wayne Ellington. In the first place, Rondo shouldn’t have been released last season, especially after being an integral piece to the Lakers’ title run in the NBA Bubble. While many people […]

The Los Angeles Clippers moved on from Rajon Rondo rather quickly this offseason. After just 18 regular season appearances and 13 playoff appearances, Tyronn Lue‘s Clippers traded Rondo along with Patrick Beverley and Daniel Oturu to the Memphis Grizzlies for Eric Bledsoe. Rondo, in turn, agreed to a buyout with Memphis and joined the Los […]

In this specific post, we’ll continue our unhappy NBA stars series with a look at some Clippers trades LA can make to make a run to the Finals. Given the amount of unhappy stars in the league — Ben Simmons, Damian Lillard, De’Aaron Fox, and so many more — it’ll be interesting to see what […]

The LA Clippers have reportedly expressed interest in free agent forward Paul Millsap. The addition of Millsap would cap off an offseason that included signing Kawhi Leonard, Reggie Jackson, Nicolas Batum, and Justise Winslow, as well as trading for Eric Bledsoe. Teams like the Brooklyn Nets, Golden State Warriors, Chicago Bulls, and Los Angeles Lakers […]

NBA veteran Paul Millsap is clearly a hot commodity this summer. With the Brooklyn Nets and Golden State Warriors already showing interest in signing the 36-year-old, the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Clippers have now entered the race as well, according to The Athletic’s Sham Charania. Millsap spent the last four seasons with the Denver […]

Before Kawhi Leonard even chose the Los Angeles Clippers in free agency, then-head coach Doc Rivers called the Toronto Raptors star the “closest thing we’ve seen to Michael Jordan.” The Clippers were fined $50,000 by the NBA for the comments Rivers made as a guest on ESPN’s NBA Finals special. The thing about his comments, […]

Paul Pierce was all about the smoke during clutch situations when he starred for the Boston Celtics. That phrase, however, has taken an entirely different meaning these days. The Celtics legend has been busy with a bunch of other ventures since he was given the pink slip as ESPN analyst early this year. On Sunday, […]

Kawhi Leonard has had an illustrious NBA career that’s taken twists and turns no one saw coming. The two-time NBA Champion, now currently with the Los Angeles Clippers, came into the league as a strong, lanky defender with an offensive game that needed developing. Now, he’s easily one of the best two-way players the league […]

Reports have continually stated that the Indiana Pacers are amenable to trading Jeremy Lamb, who has been hamstrung by injuries of late. The wing is entering the final season of a three-year, $32 million deal and has an uncertain role in new head coach Rick Carlisle’s rotation. With Lamb out of the starting five and […]

Entering the 2021 offseason, the LA Clippers were very limited in what they could do. They were already very cap-strapped, and their means to improve the team relied solely on re-signing their free agents and trading for players under contract. Well, it was that, and the mid-level exception, which many thought would be spent on […]

Montrezl Harrell has packed his bags and is ready to make his move to the Washington Wizards official. Literally.

The LA Clippers will be without Kawhi Leonard to start the 2021-22 regular season, and there’s really no timetable for the star’s return. Leonard underwent surgery to repair a partially torn ACL on July 12th, and if his operation was a complete reconstruction of the ligament as if it was a partial tear, he would […]

Phoenix Suns head coach Monty Williams recently opened up about the Phoenix Suns’ crushing NBA Finals loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. The 49-year-old revealed several details that contributed to Phoenix’s downfall, with one of them being Chris Paul’s wrist injury. CP3 was playing through a considerable injury throughout the Finals, which was perhaps the biggest […]

The LA Clippers are scheduled to start the 2021-22 season without Kawhi Leonard. Unfortunately, there’s no timetable for his return following offseason surgery on a partially torn ACL.

The Los Angeles Clippers traded away Rajon Rondo and Patrick Beverley to clear some luxury tax bill.

In the latest episode of his “Pull Up with CJ McCollum” podcast, the Portland Trail Blazers star admitted he […]

The Chicago Bulls made a lot of noise in free agency with several huge moves. They now appear to have established them as real threats in the East for the upcoming season.

The LA Clippers have turned their franchise around over the last decade, ousting their longtime racist owner and transforming into a legitimate, respectable organization.

When Serge Ibaka joined the LA Clippers in free agency back in 2019, continuing his hilarious ‘How Hungry Are You?’ show was surely in his plans. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic made it incredibly difficult to film over the last year and a half. Until now. Over the last few weeks, Serge Ibaka has dropped a […]

The LA Clippers have an interesting season ahead of them. Their 2021-22 campaign will start without Kawhi Leonard, and there’s a chance he won’t take part in any of it as he recovers from surgery on his partially torn ACL. The Clippers, however, did a good job structuring their roster around Paul George this offseason […]

Last season, the LA Clippers made only one move at the trade deadline. Lou Williams and two second round picks were traded to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for Rajon Rondo. The deal didn’t seem like a needle-mover at the time. Williams was a scorer that was already on the decline on a loaded team, […]

The Los Angeles Clippers have long been trying to forge their own history and identity, but they always find themselves in the shadow of their crosstown rival, the Lakers. After all, it’s tough to distinguish themselves when they play in the same arena. Their plans of leaving LeBron James and the Lakers behind at Staples […]

When the LA Clippers gave up Blake Griffin and Tobias Harris before 2020, it seemed like they were making a huge mistake.
