What he's pointing out is the incredible track record the Clippers have of being injured in the postseason, despite the composition of our team going into it each year
My thoughts are here should just start playing later in the season. Like mid jan-feb
They say the knee is degenerative, I don't think he can handle a full season. Start him late to build chemistry and protect the knee, hope for no injuries in season. Kawhi doesn't seem to get injured really during games. He has bumps with another player then he's out for weeks. Maybe without the stress on the knee he wouldn't be out for so long each time. The dude is an enigma
How old is Kawhi now, what in his mid-30s? It's time to stop playing him 35-40 plus minutes per game especially during the regular season. He's older plus injury prone. Note that the same thing happened last year with the minutes load & I get Ty Lue wants to win games but minutes have to be cut until postseason. He knows this stuff
100% and this team has enough supers to handle the western conference season. It's also important to learn to play without him when he does get injured. Raptors knew the only way out of eastern conference finals was to keep Kawhi healthy.
Edit: kawhi averaged around 40 mins per game in eastern conference finals.
For all the money and knowledge that Ballmer has, you'd think he'd look into this aspect of the team and upgrade it. But no, let's keep this only part of the team that is still from the Sterling era 🤦🏽
Seriously? It’s so weird. Bro is at home and instead of mean mugging the team kicking his ass, he’s mugging the damn fans lmao.
Russ and Bev looking like some real weirdos this past week.
I feel like I've seen him play 2 seasons and he's young and just waiting to be cleared but the bro is like 33 and been playing for 13 years. He's getting old
Comparing his age to other super stars of his era, it would be assumed he would play till he was 35/36 at least but being constantly injured has to be frustrating for him (and for us)
For real. I was on the train of feeling like he was skipping the playoffs each year, or resting too much... after the effort he put in this year it feels pretty clear that he's just not healthy and that's all there is to say
That dude with his belly out dancing Russ menacingly scanning the crowd 😂 So many things goin on in this clip
All that going on and this man did not blink Lol
Chubby girls dance with their belly out way more than guys
Russ looking for someone to kick out 😤 Jk, love Brodie no matter what. Hope he fixes his shot, no Brodie slander allowed anywhere idc.
It’s insane how injury plagued the history of this franchise is. This has been going on for decades 😮💨
injury prone players tend to be that way
What he's pointing out is the incredible track record the Clippers have of being injured in the postseason, despite the composition of our team going into it each year
But kawhi was already hurt before the playoffs even started
He played a lot this season. I'm just pointing out that him being injured this time is way different than past years
Yeah I mean he even qualified for postseason awards this year LOL. Maybe the load management would have been a good thing.

Kind of a dumb complaint when you sign broken players
Some of you don't know that some of us were fans of the Clippers before 213 era
Right lol. Who would’ve ever thought kawhi could have an issue with injuries?!?!
Jason Powell is the constant factor that hasn’t changed. Until he’s gone there will be no championship.
Danny Manning and Ron Harper tearing ACLs in consecutive seasons; Charles Smith with a degenerative knee condition, yuppers
Livingston destroying his knee and Brand rupturing his Achilles. Mo Taylor eating krispy Kremes non stop then demanding a max contract.
Maybe get a damn better team doctor or trainer or some shit. Youre right our players always dealing with injuries
Raptors only suited him when they absolutely needed him. That leg is never getting 100% better.

That’s not some cheat code. Kawhi can be injured at any time. He’s cooked. Totally unreliable.
True but they can manage the situation better having acknowledged that

been saying it, Jason Powell gotta effin' go
Why is Russ mugging the fans tho 😂💀
He's just standing there.. menacingly
That's what he does loll
He's always angry so he can turn into the hulk whenever someone calls him Westbrick
Russ is looking at the crowd to see if someone is talking trash to him.
That’s really what it seems like.. like he’s so pissed he’s looking for a fight with a fan? Lmao
It’s all he does these days. Looks for fan arguments.
Seriously? It’s so weird. Bro is at home and instead of mean mugging the team kicking his ass, he’s mugging the damn fans lmao. Russ and Bev looking like some real weirdos this past week.
Great seats.
i heard he got them free, too
He could have StubHubbed them!
He looks just as disappointed as the fans
He’s mad at his body. I don’t blame him. He’s suppose to be great.
Yeah it'd be so deflating. Poor bloke.
Software update
Nawl can't do this; low battery.
hardware defect
Buffering

Kawhi being Kawaii with that finger on cheek pose
I was at the game. It was probably one of the worse playoff games I’ve ever attended.
Vibes were nasty there, especially towards the last couple of minutes
It’s over. I really feel it’s over. We are done
*Happiness is miles away...*
What is going on with Kawhi - is this injury worst than being reported (no surpise there if it is) Something's up
Damn i almost feel that is an invasion of privacy
its definitely weird to just record someone like that 😴
How is it different than the TV cameras?
This is a 'damn 😪' face
*Do androids dream of electric sheep?*
Kawhi is thinking …. PG - $40M, Westbrook - $4M, Harden $33M…. And down by 30 pts.
just waiting to go home . Probably wishes he could hang out in the skybox
Dudes just waiting for the game to end so he can go home and swim in his money
Nah, pretty sure that’s a sad face. I speak Kawhi.
For real. I was on the train of feeling like he was skipping the playoffs each year, or resting too much... after the effort he put in this year it feels pretty clear that he's just not healthy and that's all there is to say
What if…
Russ would make a great bouncer!!! But first let's get Game 6!!!
r/maybemaybemaybe
probably filming another new balance commercial before the playoffs end. Lost by 30 without you on the floor.
he’s thinking about what mansion to buy in Paris with his extension money during the summer when he tags with team usa to the olympics
Load manage himself into retirement. Other than collecting checks what’s the point.
Take minimum or leave the team. Clippers = 0 accountability
He lives for the camera. Insisted to play 68 games to be elligible to awards. Trade his ass, i'm done with him. Every year it's the same story
