Williams said this on Trae Young’s podcast “From the Point,” referencing the Clippers’ loss in 7 games to the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals.

Williams said, “We started to hear the rumblings that nobody is going to respect this chip so we kind of just took our foot off the gas”

A disrespected chip is still a chip compared to a hand with all those ringless fingers

[–] Miss-Mamba@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I was about to score with Margot Robbie but then I heard she’s not a 24/7 nymphomaniac horn-bag so I just went home and jacked-off instead. I’m sure the experience would have sucked and I just couldn’t be bothered.

[–] Original_Trick_8552@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ohhh that's what happened

[–] karlou1984@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] steveeeeeeee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I am not having a good time as a clippers fan recently. Maybe i should remove the recently. I am not having a good time as a clippers fan forever.

*Concerning the most even playoffs ever.

[–] RealBatuRem@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, that’s why I didn’t win the finals that year too.

[–] ALovelyAnxiety@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

rofl played with kobe. kobe would be disappointed

[–] BigMik_PL@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lmfao. Chip is a chip people already forgot it was won in the bubble. People forget which chips were in a lockout year.

Like Brian Scalabrine said in 5 years he's gonna tell people he was the sixth man in 10 years he can tell people he was a starter.

Chips sta in annals of history forever I couldn't even tell you how many teams played in the NBA when Bill Russell won his chips. Could have been 4 nobody gives a fuck he's still looked at as 11 time NBA champion.

Wtf kinda loser statement is this🤣🤣

"We worked our whole lives for this, but Skip Bayless said it didn't matter, so we drove the bus right into the most embarrassing playoff exit this century."

I would be so pissed if any player of my favourite team would ever say something like this.

[–] markedpirate@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

"We started to hear rumblings that businesses were struggling during the pandemic so we knid of just took off from the bubble and got some lemon pepper wings."

[–] OhlookSILLagain@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yes I'm sure that's exactly what it was Lou...

[–] HikmetLeGuin@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Why do some people look down on the bubble chip? Every team had the same basic circumstances. There's no reason to see it as any less impressive than any other championship. In fact, it had plenty of its own challenges. Kudos to the Lakers for overcoming the difficulties of that year and staying focused.

[–] YeggoPoleggo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I respect him as a player, but the guy has been saying stupid shit for years.

[–] LyonsKing12@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Never trust a man who eats at a strip club.

[–] Jhco022@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dude's on some other shit fr. Who is he even trying to convince 😂

[–] guacamully@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah okay Lou

[–] supersafeforwork813@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I have no idea if the team felt like that…but I respect Lou for saying “this shit is dumb I just want to go home” lol

[–] DFisBUSY@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

pathetic ass copium.

[–] thegreaterfool714@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That is such a loser take from Lou Williams

[–] cletoreyes01@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bitch please Lou, nobody was devaluing the championship until the Lakers went up 3-1 against the heat LOL

Like imagine if you're PG, would any guy want to experience that much backlash due to abhorrent play because he was afraid that a potential championship will be diminished?

[–] TheEliteCalhoun@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Even if that is true, you can only say that if you won the Bubble Chip. Otherwise you just look like a salty bitch.

[–] RandomMonstar@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think it’s pretty cool that we got to witness such a completely unique event in sports history as fucked up as it was for the entire planet. To take the entire NBA and put them in such an insane environment and compete for the chip. It was a interesting lens into what players are really 100% dedicated to the game no matter what the situation. Guarantee the greats like Jordan,Bird,Kobe would all be just as competitive in the bubble as in any game.

[–] SamGleesh@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Why Lou!? You had so much respect!!! Don’t turn idiot now.

[–] Sinaneos@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

People usually stop finding these excuses after finishing primary school.
