The Clippers have been the best team in the NBA for over a month and James Harden is a big reason why. Ever since benching Russell Westbrook LA has dominated their schedule but there’s one obvious flaw that holds them back.
The Clippers traded for James Harden and the experts tore them apart the Clippers traded for James Harden late night because they were embarrassed by this trade and they should be because they’re the clippers but after they started 0 and five with him the media said selfish Diva Harden will never work his whole
Reason of wanting to be there is to get a big contract and he’s going to think I have to do that by quote I am a system by being the James Harden system and other people sitting around and watching him so somebody pays him which by the
Way nobody’s going to pay him okay Harden did make it tougher by saying I’m not a system player I’m a system but 28 games in was he right the Clippers are the best team in basketball since benching Russell Westbrook Hardon hitting eight threes in a game and doing
Snow angels on the court he has unlocked peak level Kawai and people forget but before Giannis and yic emerged Kawai was considered the best player in the world now he is the only player to average 30 on Elite efficiency in a six-game span in NBA history it might be time to Crown
The Clippers as favorites to win the chip over the nuggets and the Celtics except for one tiny thing there is one little detail hanging over this entire franchise that will definitely tear them down in the end those media haters will be right look I don’t care that the wi
Streak was snapped lose on the second night of a back-to-back on the road against a good OKC Team without Kawai it’s all good but I made a video saying Russell Westbrook’s career might finally be over and I said that because he was the Clipper starter but was benched and
His minutes fell to 15 a game every other year Russ would have gone crazy he has one of the biggest egos in sports make a scene demand a trade or get cut but instead dude has put his head down and been a team player I am a Critic of
Russ but I have to give give him props cuz he deserves it a big problem was Russ can’t shoot but they have so much chemistry now look at this beautiful Russ Harden give and go and it doesn’t matter that Russ can’t shoot if he’s making Smart Cuts to the basket like
This oh yes Westbrook moving without the ball you are not hallucinating he’s also playing good defense so I take it back instead of his career being over Russ can extend his career for years if he plays this role but the real reason that they have been so good is Kawhi Leonard
The man is late career Michael Jordan MJ out of college was a great athlete but a questionable shooter like Kawai the GM of Chicago even said at the time the biggest thing about MJ was can he make a shot we wondered what kind of shooter
He’d be but he heard all the critics and worked like hell to build his signature Jumper in the second three repeat Jordan extended their Dynasty by extending his range his signature fadeaway featured a leg kick and Kawai does the exact same move in fact if you put them side by
Side it is freaky how similar kawai’s game is to Michael Jordan they’re identical but none of that even matters if he can’t stay healthy but first my in-laws are in town for Christmas however they are huge sports fans so I am taking them to Pacers at Rockets I’m

Specifically named Kawai as one of the top offenders LA’s front office guy Lawrence Frank said I thought that was very very unfair in a low blow but let’s be honest he earned it I mean yeah Kawai was injured but he became a villain by not even sitting with his teammates at
Playoff games but now kawhai says there’s zero pain in his knee for the first time in years the plan was always to sit Kawaii and PG and in the regular season to get them ready for the playoffs but it always backfired but for some reason he has played all but one
Game now and it’s working same goes for Paul George he’s been surprisingly healthy and he takes over whenever Kawai needs a rest but James Harden was right he is the system everyone is getting shots a lot easier with the beard running the show it’s even elevated their role players I was really
Concerned about sending so much depth back to Philly I me Nick Batum Marcus Morris and Robert cumington are playoff tested vets but the young Clippers have been amazing Terren man and air coffee impact games on offense and defense Norm pal is a bucket but Harden unlocks them
And he is playing Elite defense since joining the team Harden is leading the Clippers in stocks steals plus blocks better than Kawai PG and zubot take take a look at this lock down possession and strip on young Jaden Hardy what is going on well I’ll tell you what’s going on
Last year Harden sacrificed both money and his game to help the Sixers Joel embiid was the focal point MVP so Harden led the NBA an assist and what was his reward he missed the allstar game for the first time in a decade he was so
Upset with that now he wants to leave no doubt that he deserves to be on that All-Star roster even with all the drama to start the year the second thing is his contract the Clippers have his Bird right so they can pay him up to the max
Kawai and PG can be free agents too so this will get expensive now Steve bomber would be happy to pay that for a championship but that will never happen if you believe in the Clipper curse it would be so Clippers to crash and burn after this great start in 1976 they got
Moses Malone in the the expansion draft the coach barely played him so when Moses complained they traded him for two first he only wound up being the 15th greatest player of all time they also traded young Bob McAdoo and Adrien Dantley for peanuts so they traded three
Hall of Fame players in under a year but when they moved to LA in ‘ 84 it only got worse GM Elgen Baylor took forward Reggie Williams one spot ahead of forward Scotty Pippen he took Michael Ola candy number one over dirt nitzki and Paul Pierce to save money he dealt a
First round pick that had a 1% chance of going number one but since their cursed it hit and became Kyrie Irving in the Lob City years the owner Donald Sterling was exposed as a racist when tapes leaked of him disparaging Magic Johnson for being black the one-year CP3 and
Blake Griffin were both healthy they blew a 3-1 lead to the Rockets but in 2019 it all changed a starf free AG agent finally chose them and he brought Paul George la was favorites to win it all break the curse and blew a 3-1 lead in the bubble since then either kawhai
Or PG have been injured so it would be just like the Clippers to build the Hope up just to tear it down on their fans heads the killer will probably be Kawai and PG’s Health but if it’s not it’ll be James Harden I don’t care how great he’s
Playing now dude has a special talent for melting down at exactly the wrong time I couldn’t believe my eyes last year when after a couple of great games he shot 26% from the field in the final two games to lose a 3-2 lead to Boston he does this every year great in the
Regular season bad when it counts and he’s doing it again the clips are the best team in basketball right now but don’t be fooled the Clipper curse is undefeated but another big trade is coming and La is not involved Donovan Mitchell could be on the move and there
Are four teams on the market for him the Knicks the Nets the Heat and a mystery team that is not in LA

No one serious said Kawai was the best in the world
They arent making it past the conference semifinals anyway
Russ was more willing to go to the bench cuz he cool with harden and bruh is 35 years old. His career being "over" is not the point n

😂 are you crazy! His game is nothing like MJ.
On paper this team SHOULD at least make finals
They will eventually fall apart. The racist ghost 👻 of Donald Sterling is haunting them even though he is still alive 😂😂😂
All those Clippers history was before Steve Ballmer tho
Why is nobody talking about Jalen Brunson on the clippers’ bench
This dude HATES Russell Westbrook for some reason.
At least you’ll finally watch a pacers game for once
The final conclusion was a bingo. U simply can't believe in a guy who has such a long history of choking in the postseason. We believed so many times and he diassapointed us many times too. At least this trade doesn't look to crazy as it seemed to be before
So what’s the 1 small detail?
Nobody never question Harden skill but he doesn't do it in the playoffs and this isn't peak kawhi they doing good but we will check in a few
Westbrook has one of the biggest egos in sport? What is that based on? Countless interviews with former team mates saying that he is one of the best team mates as a person they have had.
Harden has his postseason curse to overcome. The streaks in the NBA (Spurs, LOL) have been wild lately
This guys married? He looks like he’s 20 😂
And then playoffs will start and Harden will go 2/16 every other game 😂
You are a hater with no knowledge about basketball. Stop making videos
stop it kawhi is not jordan or kobe
Let's see if they make it out of the second round before we give him credit for anything.
Why you selling it like it’s because of Russ that they were bad. They played great with Russ before Harden got there. Having them both in the starting unit just doesn’t work though. Russ asked to come off the bench for the teams sake and he’s still catching strays.
They were hot until they ran into the young OKC Thunder
This means absolutely nuthin' bcuz he crumbles come playoff time
Westbrook didn't get benches he willingly wanted to come off of the bench… Did he say mj 😂😂😂😂😂
Can you make a video about Coby white
How Kawhi is getting snobbed in favor of that much overrated “year 21” player is beyond me.
Kobe master MJ moves won 5 rings, now Kawhi doing the same thing and giving every team a problem.
Imma be real… without harden and russ starting clippers would be better
Well the best team in ball just got blown out by 40 to the c’s the real best team in ball
P.S. ima bucks fan
Jfc. The clippers always choke. Always. They are bums.
you wanna know what clipper and harden meltdowns have had in common? doc rivers. they'll be fine
Russ willingly went to the bench sir! He wasn't benched.
It's been like a month and people still take the "i'm a system" quote out of context. Listening is hard for some people.
‘Since benching Russell Westbrook’.
Remember the lakers went to the conference finals after they dumped westbrook
The clippers are not the best team in the league please stfu they just got butt fucked by Boston
I heard it before.
Let's see if harden can do this in the playoffs
Good stuff and nails it at the end. Harden is the biggest chock artist of all time. Unless it's Chris Paul.
Nice video after clippers get clowned by Celtics by 50. Stop making useless videos bro
