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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

Is this what the kids call cope?

[–] dragonrider5555@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] xbyo@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

" i never liked her anyway ! "

[–] Salt_Magazine_9714@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Classic lemon pepper Lou

[–] DevMahasen@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Some A Grade horseshit/historical revisionism at play there.

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

What a weak minded team

[–] TdotSkunt@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What xa looser would say lmao

[–] svartalfeim@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

Fuck outta here man 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[–] mr_antman85@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

Seriously? Fuck off with this. Weak ass shit.

[–] Ok_Hornet_714@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

This explains why Lou left the bubble to go Magic City

[–] capcrunchberries@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Trae Young has a podcast?

[–] DeMikeDeLowry@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] relivesa@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That’s a lie

[–] Fr0003@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

What about other playoffs where you sucked ass Lou?

[–] herring80@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

Are Clippers developmentally disabled?

[–] CranjisLeBasketball@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

Losers mentality.

[–] ShanghaiAdobo897@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Flatulence8778@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] JapaneseToiletGhost@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] OneMoreGame@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That sounds like what a loser would say.

[–] Battlemaster123@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Y'all were up 3-1..…

[–] laz10@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I HEARD A RUMOUR SO I GAVE UP

HAHAHAHA

[–] ConstantineMonroe@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

Generational cope....
