Clippers 21 point lead has quickly been trimmed to 12, and Kawhi Leonard still is not on the bench.
Quote:
Also, might end up being nothing, but Kawhi Leonard went back to the Clippers locker room during the end of 1st quarter timeout and still hasn't returned to the bench yet. Something to monitor.
Injuries suck, but their top 4 dudes have A LOT of mileage on them. It wasn't a matter of if, but when. Kawhi held up spectacularly well for the majority of the season, but his entire career has been riddled with injuries. If it didn't happen now, it would have happened in some playoff game. Silver lining is he can use this opportunity to rest for a bit and prepare himself for the postseason. The prime question is if they will all be healthy for the playoffs. Westbrook will returning by the time the playoffs start. _________________ Yi Jianlian Fanboy. Respect The Chair.

During the playoffs he'll be injured again, that's just who he is right now

Similar story in Phoenix. Spending a fortune for guys who can't stay healthy. Its a surprise if they stay healthy. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

The Clippers are beginning their annual process of falling apart early in the playoffs. Yet for some reason, the national media is still head over heels in love with them and think they can win the world championship. _________________ Lakers 49ers Chargers Dodgers

There’s an old saying in China, a camel die of hunger is bigger than a healthy horse. Clipper are playing subpar ball lately, but they’re still head and shoulder above the lakers, they are sitting pretty in the playoff positioning.
