If you've ever been on a team you know that it's impossible for this not to be true.

Same shyt happened to the 2013 Lakers (or was it 2012? or both?) when Kobe wasn't doing full practices.

It just kills team chemistry when you have one player who doesn't participate with the rest of the team on the normal day-to-day shyt. If that guy appears to have his own rules and there are egos involved, it gets even worse. Raptors made it work because they were already established and secure together with veteran leadership so Kawhi was slotted in to a team that was already playing great even while he sat. But Clippers didn't have that vet leadership stability to hold things together and had too many egos involved.

You’re fukking pathetic you know that right?

This is what happens when there's no leadership/hierarchy in any kind of organization, not just sports. Person comes aboard more talented than the regulars, person might have an aura that comes off being superior or gets catered to more, and instead of the organization establishing roles or that person being a leader and establishing them themselves, shyt festers and ruins the organization.

Kawhi more than likely can't play a full season + carry postseason, Raptors & Spurs have been trying to tell you all he's permanently damaged. Plus, he just won a ring playing that way, so I'm not sure what these players expected. But like someone already said, this only matters when you lose, because they walked around all season like they were champions.

But it all comes back to no accountability from Doc whatsoever, was completely fine with the two stars not even practicing while everybody else had to grind and play heavy minutes while they were out. And Kawhi didn't establish leadership because to do that you have to actually talk, and apparently he didn't talk to anyone except George the entire year.

Person might have an uncle who wants to be the shadow, coach, GM, etc...

All he had to do was be Jordan reicarnate, or rather not completely stink up the joint in game 7. nikkas be mad all the time B. You show up and show out and put jewelry on their finger (:dame:), and they let shyt ride. You don't think nikkas never had a problem with Mike, Kobe, Bron, Shaq...shyt every superstar not name Timothy getting special treatment or being an a$$hole or any other number of things? :usure: Those nikkas got the fukking job done, Kawhi didn't. It's that simple.

constantly making team flights late would be annoying to anyone..

but anyway....we will see how Lue and his staff handle all the turmoil roiling under the surface.


and load management is going to be quite the topic for the clip boys next year.....cause he gotta play more but he still gotta be healthy too

So tired of all the stupid fukking talk about the chemistry issues on this team.

It's as if they got up 3-1 and they all collectively went "hey you know what, fukk my teammates :ohhh:"
