The only thing I have been able to think about over the last few weeks is how the new Clippers logo could have been so much better

That colour combo goes hard.

Unironically better logo+colours than the official one.

Which team will he doom next after realizing the writing on the Kawhi wall.

I will always love James Harden, but if he wants to ring chase successfully, he needs to go back to his 6th man roots and latch onto to some younger stars. If he keeps sticking with stars his own age, it's going to continue to be a series of sad situations. He'd probably look good coming off the bench in Denver.

Harden as a backup in Indy. He can teach Hali how to draw foul calls.

Harden is not the reason the Clippers are struggling the past couple games,. They're as good as Kawhi is and Kawhi is not good right now.

That's exactly his point though. Harden is good enough to be on a contender - but his old broken teammates are letting him down.

I think denver's team nutritionist would enact a robust program of political violence on anyone who suggested exposing jokic to the Harden Lifestyle

I personally just think Harden is cursed and the universe won't let him win as some sort of punishment. He's never bad on paper, not an underperforming player on the Clippers this year, but also just won't be the guy miraculously leading them to the finals off his back.

it's hard to say Harden is cursed when he pretty much personally picked every team he's landed on. The guy is just a sucker for bad vibes imo

He’s a max player that hops teams. He’s doomed to end up somewhere desperate and after a few months it’s obvious why the team was desperate.

Either very impressive that he managed through his knee the Raptors year, or if it was the Raptors year that blew it out completely. He played the hell out of that year and hasn't looked the same since.

Not consistently but he’s looked like Prime Kawhi the last two times he’s faced the Mavs in the playoffs.

He only played 60 games in that 2018-2019 regular season which isn't far off from the 57, then 52, that he played on the Clippers the two seasons after. 2019 and 2020 are also the last two seasons he played in every possible playoff game his team was in.

The Raptors very carefully managed his regular season availability to save him for the playoffs, and that worked out. The Clippers were hoping to do the same, but it only worked for that first year.

Toronto lucked out but that degenerative knee finally caught up with him after.

Hope Luka doesn't need to take too many jumpers today.

I kind of suspect the Clippers will be better without gimpy Kawhi. He is clearly not himself. He was slowing down their offense/hurting ball movement + can't play defense like he used to.
