    Feel bad for Clippers fans. Great fans, great owner, great front office.

    If Kawhi and PG were 100% healthy, the Clippers would probably be the favorites to come out of the WC. Basically Boston West.

    Sucks that load management was practiced so much only to end up with Kawhi not being able to go much in the first round, regardless.

    I like sticking the knife into the Clippers better this way tbh.

    like a classic Rockets fake comeback

    Kawhi or PG play and the Sun's might have gone home

    These two LA born kids has been camping in the eighth-richest person's treasury house for a while…if nothing unexpected happen, they will load more out there before wrapping up their boy scout patrols.

    The Clippers took their shot and missed. Their window might be closed. Almost everybody they've got is already getting well into their 30s.

    This account claims to be a clippers media member but it's twitter so take everything with a grain of salt

    Maybe if they didn't load manage so much they would have had a higher seed and a better chance to win with Kawhi out

    Clipper fans talking about “if healthy” and “gotta play with the team we have on the floor”.

    Cries in Yao and TMac

    Even with just a near healthy competent Kawhi, the Clippers were far better. Leonard needs to consider holistic medicine to heal that knee. There's a solution where the traditional sports medicine and mainstream doctor can't help him.

    I was first rooting for Suns, then wanted the underdog since I remember how cocky the Suns were and despise CP3's play and the idea of KD losing to his former teammate. Now I am happy just for the sake of load management losing big time.
