Stephen A. CONCERNED over Kawhi LEAVING Wolves game with BACK ISSUES 👀 | First Take
The te- Wolves took down the Clippers in LA but more bad news for the clip Stephen A Kawai he left early in the game good Lord back spazm are you concerned about this cuz I know how highly you think of this Clippers te how
Can you not be and and by the way I’m usually awake when you’re asleep so let’s keep that in mind but let’s get back to the subject TV understand this TV talk don’t get sensitive I’m everyone knows you’re awake and you work very hard I’m just taking fact I wake up much
Earlier in the morning than you do though you do you damn right do cuz I usually go to sleep but the point is this the point is this kawh Leonard I got to give credit what credit is due because obviously I’ve been critical of him in the past because he
Missed so many damn games and he does nothing to market the sport but I know he’s a great player one of only six players this year averaging 20 points doggy of a game shooting 50% from the field 40% from three-point range career high 52.3% from the field 42.6% from
Three-point range ranks top 10 in the NBA right I want to throw y’all a list of injuries that this man has suffered because this year this is 58th game that he tried to play last night okay hasn’t played in 60 or more games since 2016
2017 so this is a big deal he’s been playing games and I got to give credit where do okay here’s the deal in Five Seasons with the Clippers Five Seasons I he talking about his career just five seasons with the Clippers y’all he’s are his these are the injuries on his list
Knee foot back leg face injury management illness ankle abductor hips groin and now it’s back V I mean my God it’s you know listen it’s not his fault it’s not his fault but it’s just one of those things that makes you say here we go again not just with him but the
Clippers cuz I got news for you the Clippers could win the chip they can win it all I don’t think they will they got a shot though they really really do until you see that and then you say no they don’t because you just don’t believe that there’s any way in hell
That a series one series after another after another after another is going to go through and kawh ain’t going to get her 100% they got a dark cloud over the franchise and you know he George they always get banged up I agree with you not to interrupt your little well I
Sympathize cuz backs spasms are extremely painful [Applause] [Applause] yeah

What I don’t get is why the books still have the Clippers as #3 to win it all!! That’s a sucker bet if you ask me. This team is the buffalo bills just cursed like a mofo!!
The reason these injuries happen is because of load management
I got news for you: next year George is leaving 🤣🙈. How about he goes to To Golden state when Klay gets pay in for example LA if Dlo leaves 😁.
HERE WE GO LMAO 😂 HE FINNA BE MIA FOR A GOOD 30 GAMES LMAO
KAWHI WILL BE HEALTHY THROUGHOUT THIS POST-SEASON
Kawhi is back to being an “injured” bench player like usual 💀
It happens every year the clippers are done ✅✅✅
Today's NBA players are soft and it has nothing to do with European players. All the basketball warriors had retired to where we are left with divas.
Molly it’s easy to wake up earlier than someone who is the fave of the network. Annoying and I’d say the same thing if it was a man. SAS works harder than just about anyone and I’m not even much of a fan of his.
Thats what happens when you don’t take care of your body and always wants to rest. The basketball gods don’t reward you for missing games, taking easy way out.
Oh you mean the Clippers are entering the playoffs with a major injury to a star? Im shocked! Next is James Harden going 1-15 in an important game and we all act surprised it happened
He faking so he can rest for the playoffs 🤣
Kawhi feared Edwards and quit
How is it not kawhi’s fault but if it’s AD he’s lazy he doesn’t train the right way it’s this and that?
No jokes for him? Oh, yall save them all for AD.
No Kawhi this clippers efforts gonna go to waste in the playoffs. I just can’t see Harden or PG13 show up when the lights bright 😢
Finally no Shannon
Injuries are the purest aspect of the game left. Injuries always prove who is the best team! If the team can collectively step up in his place, at any point in the season then they win.
How ironic, the guy they called Terminator is one the softest guy in the league
Kawhi doesn’t market the sport? Bro that’s why we have you, sas😂😂
look how many games this guy has played pre and post contract signing, it ain't no coincidence 😂😂😂
Balmer should have took them to Seattle
What's new? Its a tradition already.
Anybody picking clippers with Hardin, kahwi, pg… you don’t watch dudes actually play basketball.
Shut up molly
