Saw a trailer for a new mini series about the Donald Sterling controversy. LINK

Seems like it should be a good production!

Ed O'Neill as Donald Sterling
Laurence Fishburne as Doc Rivers

Quote:
Reporting from Kristina Pink said she talked to Clippers assistant Brian Shaw. Apparently, the Clippers didn't think Kawhi Leonard "looked like himself" in the first half and that if he doesn't start to turn it around in the second half then they might just pull him.

Curse has returned.

Maybe Paul George and Kawhi Leonard can learn to dribble, pass, and talk next year.

25 years playing at Staples/Crypto and the best the Clippers accomplished was getting to the WCF. Good riddance you losers.

Almost every year for the past decade, the Clippers would go on a hot streak in December and/or January, and the national media would fall head-over-heels in love with them while picking them to reach the NBA Finals.

And every year, the Clippers simply fall apart in the postseason like a cheap house during a Noreaster.

They have no mental toughness, no resilience, no resourcefulness. They're a bunch of losers disguised as a fake championship-contending team.

When the F is the national media and ESPN going to learn their lesson?

Have fun decorating your new igloo with your beloved division "championship" banners.

They are decorating their new arena with California high school basketball jerseys....because they have little accomplishments of their own.

Back when they were the California Angels and the Anaheim Angels, I occasionally did see the Angels baseball team get “Beat LA” chants even though they clearly weren’t an LA team.

Guess this means Harden still will never win a ring. How many big name players has he played with in his career?

They have way better chance of advancing to round 2.

Is Ballmer still paying the media?

Clippers have ruled out Kawhi Leonard (knee inflammation) for Game 4 vs. Mavericks.


Flippers have 3 more years with this guy, but might be good news today since they did well without him (Game 1)

This is getting ridiculous. Just retire from basketball.
It's been years since he was able to play on a consistent basis.

Uh oh...I hope the Clippers don't start winning now...lol. They did beat the Mavs without Kawhi in game 1.

Kawhi doesn't like to play when he isn't 100%. Maybe this is the reason why.

At what point is it a mistake for them to have given him that extension?

If and when the Clippers won this series without him.
