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”

"Yeah we just decided to blow a 3-1 lead because people were going to clown us anyways"

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

"they're gonna clown us anyways, so we may as well deserve to be clowned"

Damn this legit makes me lose some respect from Lou Will. This is a load of shit

[–] GadgetGod1906@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And here is my problem with players podcasts at time. No one willing to push back on dunb shit like this

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

This dude is charged with leading a billion dollar franchise, and he has this level of cope? My god all my failings were just dumb luck.

[–] SomeManagement808@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is this what the kids call cope?

[–] dragonrider5555@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is the weakest crew of players of all time. Bunch a beefy wimps

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

Yeah, I'm sure AD sheds a tear every time he hears someone call it a Mickey Mouse ring.

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

" i never liked her anyway ! "

[–] Salt_Magazine_9714@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Classic lemon pepper Lou

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

Some A Grade horseshit/historical revisionism at play there.

[–] Legitimate-Map-5351@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What a weak minded team

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

What xa looser would say lmao

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

nahh man, real ballers dont give a damn regardless of setup. As long as we see 2 rings and 1 ball we play ball. I wonder if they gonna say "this chip meant nothing" if they have won the 2020 bubble. For sure they wont, they just wont admit it.

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

Fuck outta here man 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[–] mr_antman85@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ain't no way they got up 3-1 and simply said that they were going to throw the series...ain't no way that's real. That doesn't even make any sense...

[–] noscope360widow@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I like how Jokic balling out has lead the clippers to rebuild a good team with championship potential, and now they have harden

[–] Sonnek75@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Seriously? Fuck off with this. Weak ass shit.

[–] Ok_Hornet_714@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This explains why Lou left the bubble to go Magic City

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

Trae Young has a podcast?

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

He was right, no one respects the Bubble Year Finals. Year was messed right up.

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

That’s a lie

[–] Fr0003@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Correct me, but didn't he said he went outside the bubble to attend a close friend's funeral, only to be found that he went to Magic City?

[–] tony9528@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What about other playoffs where you sucked ass Lou?

[–] herring80@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The same players who claim to be immune from outside noise, also claim to having given up on a championship because of outside noise. Give me strength lol

[–] Slimeslatt762@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I knew the clippers didn’t lose to the nuggets because they are the better team they lost because they chose to any real fan could tell 😂

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

Are Clippers developmentally disabled?

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

Took the foot of the gas and put on the brakes to stop at the club and go get some lemon pepper wings.

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

Losers mentality.

[–] ShanghaiAdobo897@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yep. Best chip ever because of how salty it makes mfers

[–] Flatulence8778@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

LOL. The dude is visiting reddit and has seen the dumbest takes on the bubble chip and doubled down on it.

You telling me you do not want to win when your team is leading 3-1?

And fans saying the bubble chip is not legit when they would actually would love to have one for their team especially if their team has not won any.

[–] NoBook9868@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol this has to be one of the dumbest quotes I've read from a pro athlete

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

Yeah, a championship that negates travel and other distractions, focusing players, while taking place during a global crisis is less respectable. I don't get it. Those playoffs were intense.

[–] tyrion85@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

nah not really, there weren't any such serious ramblings at that time, everyone was stoked to see the battle of LA. Clippers were a new team and everyone wanted to see them matched up against LeBron and AD. Ramblings started only until the semis were over, and especially after the nba finals.

I personally don't care much what lies clippers fans or players tell to themselves, but you don't get to rewrite history. especially not on something most of us still remember personally, and which is literally a subject of a simple reddit or google history search

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

Man, I really liked Lou will. This comment is hella bad.

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

That sounds like what a loser would say.

[–] Battlemaster123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Y'all were up 3-1..…

[–] laz10@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I HEARD A RUMOUR SO I GAVE UP

HAHAHAHA

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

It would be one thing of the Lakers had this attitude given all their success, but the fucking Clippers? Does Lou Williams realize that the Clippers are historically the shittiest team in sports history? How about you get the damn ring first before you worry about how the media and public is going to receive it. Have 1 bubble ring is 1000 times better than 0 rings.

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

Generational cope....
