The Los Angeles Clippers are the NBA's most mismanaged franchise. Here's how they ruined their own present and future.

Charles Barkley: "I've been poor, I've been rich, I've been fat, I've been in the Hall of Fame, and one thing I can tell you is that the Clippers have alway sucked."

Does the Sixers think PG isn't going to bring his injury prone shenanigans to Philly or something? 😂😂😂

[donavanfaulkner]

The thing I find crazy is he left for the team James harden came from 😭🤦🏿‍♂️

[korys]

kawhi going to a cursed franchise after winning a ring gotta be one of the worst decisions i’ve seen in sports history.

[yesmanyrangel]

kawahi getting the bag from the clips to occasionally hoop is a major W lol

[bobbysmoove]

Never forget that "This is his city” New Balance ad for Kawhi when he first got to LA😂😂

Hard to say this is the worst managed, cursed is the better word. The Charlotte Hornets and Wizards are worse. The Clips are the unluckiest for sure. That move for PG13 was very short-sighted without contemplating the long-term consequences. When they had PG and Kawhi, the roster they put around them was pretty decent, so its hard to say its the worst managed. Its just Kawhi and PG kept getting injured....and the two best shots they had at a title were hampered by something. In 2020, it was Doc River's shitty coaching decisions. In 2021, it was Kawhi's injury.

The big thing I'm going to fault them for is keeping Doc Rivers in 2020. That was a terrible management decision considering his reputation even back in the day.

Kawhi and PG blew their chance in the bubble for sure, but after that it was FOUR STRAIGHT YEARS of injury luck. Players cant help getting hurt. Kawhi has a degenerative knee....Also anyone who says they saw Shai developing into an MVP candidate is lying their ass off.

The Spurs got so much slander after the TOR trade and after he won a ring 😂 look at the situation now 5 years later

[IXCANADATV]

Now raptor fans & nba fans are laughing 🤣

[robg]

Kawhi had it all in Toronto but got greedy

[camnewton]

Can’t believe he left a repeat with the raptors for losing in the 1st and 2nd round 😂😂

[randomcommenter]

Getting paid millions to play basketball isn’t enough for Kawhi, he wants to get paid millions to do nothing

[GeliCarlosJ]

Toronto got more from 1yr of Kawhi than the Clips got after 5+ years

No, they're not. I wish people could distinguish between process and results. Sometimes you try something and it doesn't work. It doesn't mean it was wrong to try it.

Poorly managed is adding Bradley Beal to Phoenix when he solves none of your issues and eliminates your ability to add depth. Poorly managed is when you hang onto Beal for five years too long and give him a no-trade clause like Washington did. Poorly managed is whatever the hell the Chicago Bulls are doing. Poorly managed is when the PROCESS doesn't make sense. Adding PG and Kawhi to a team with quality depth was not bad process.

A year ago, everyone was slamming the Wolves for trading for Gobert. But now they make a WCF and suddenly it's a great move? It's so silly to judge everything on results when there's so much luck and health involved.

[AirRusher]

I told y'all this Kawhi-PG duo will not work out the moment they blew a 3-1 lead against Denver

[RWBprototype]

If any trade requires giving up pretty much a whole decade's worth of draft picks, especially 1st rounders, that trade isn't worth it. You might just be better off letting your player walk and get nothing back. Draft picks mean possibilities.

[SuperNASCARrocks]

The Clippers are a cursed franchise. They’ve had all this talent (CP3, Blake Griffin, Deandre Jordan, JJ Reddick, Jamal Crawford, Kawhi, Paul George, James Harden.) Yet can’t do a damn thing with them. Regular season or playoffs. They’re always injured and they always come up short.

[JahNuhThunDeeTheOneAndOnly]

_Will the Clippers ever build a great homegrown team that can at least reach a Finals one day?_

[jblassio]

Playoff P, The System Harden, and Westbrick is what the Clippers chose to give Kawhi. Not sure if it would have been more helpful to put Kawhi’s feet in a bucket of cement…🤣🤣🤣
