Just when we thought it couldn’t get worse they took our short king from us.

This is a net negative move and I'll die on this hill

Pay Bradley Beal his illegal under the table paraplegic money, or give the roster spot/bare minimum money to somebody with a pulse

Horrible marketing team they got. This is worse than letting Beal wear #3.

u/bigchuckdeezy Ralph Lawler 5d ago

Half the replies to this tweet were in Japanese, such a miss even for that alone. Not like we are competing anytime soon may as well have fun and bring in new cool fans.

Oh cmon, you are so singleminded. That spot occupied by Bradley Beal can help us in ways such as

just let someone wear #32 as well, Blake hates this franchise anyway.

-10 team chemistry with Rui

The rotting corpse of Bradley Beal is worth an additional -50 (if he even plays)

u/nepats523 Corey Maggette 5d ago

I hate this fucking franchise lmao

I've almost had it this might be the last straw for me

No. This is sad.

u/playa787 Blake Griffin 5d ago

Wtf. Dude just balled out. Others on this team I rather waive instead. This fucking team I swear…

u/nepats523 Corey Maggette 5d ago

But we cna have Bradley Beal!!! Who might never see the court again!!!!!

u/Crapcicle6190 Batum Battallion 4d ago

That's clear 1st option bradley beal to you

u/nepats523 Corey Maggette 4d ago

First option in the paralympics!

u/oro47 5d ago

Man I was rooting for this guy, hard working traditional point guard who brought energy he was balling

u/Exotic_Employ8795 5d ago

I say this with love 🤝 Fuck the clippers front office and everything it stands for

13

u/F47NGAD 5d ago

Why did they do it?

1

u/GreaterMuddeer 4d ago

because he’s a disaster on defense

8

u/Dahleh-Llama 4d ago

Can Yuki at least play with the Clippers G league team?

9

u/Gotnam_Gotnam 5d ago

If he's getting kicked out of all teams that try him, isn't that a definitive pattern that he doesn't work well in NBA? Maybe he should go to Europe or something

7

u/dmilesai Darius Miles 5d ago

Why go to Europe when he'd get paid a ridiculous amount of money in the B.League?

8

u/Gotnam_Gotnam 4d ago

Whatever, still the NBA career is clearly not working.

5

u/NecessaryMean2164 5d ago

He is on the g league, i suspect they need him to help develop the play making for the main team and the exhibit ten was just a kind gesture

u/Worried-Let9301 5d ago

身長しか見とらんのか?

u/EastVarious601 4d ago

Did everyone in this sub casually just forget that we already have like 8 point guards

2

u/Exzibit21 Blake Griffin 4d ago

Don't take this sub too seriously with some of the comments. Especially when it comes to the actual product on the floor.

2

u/No_Radish_4690 4d ago

Was genuinely looking foreard to seeing him get garbage time minutes

3

u/musy101 4d ago

Who the fuck runs this team? What kind of bubble and yes men do they surround themselves with?

2

u/LAlynx Darius Miles 4d ago

Chuck, Clipper Darrell, and DJ Dense

2

u/StudentSuspicious 4d ago

I thought he was one bright spot against the Raptors.

7

u/lm2lm DJ Dense 4d ago

Holy shit this sub has no ball knowledge

3

u/Frequent-Ferret-5110 4d ago

Lots of these comments make it clear that despite how bad things have been the past few months, there are still plenty of ways we could be much more of a joke of a franchise

That or a lot of this sub is vying to run the Kings' front office

u/noahlylesusa James Harden 4d ago

He brings fun and excitement to an otherwise pretty boring Clippers team this year

3

u/JaguarAromatic5477 4d ago

you know what else brings excitement? Prospect of getting better in hte future. This guy is NOT getting any better cuz hes not getting any taller

u/lm2lm DJ Dense 4d ago

Maybe they could also get Tako Fall and Mo Bamba?! Maybe LiAngelo ball and Jimmer Fredette could be fun too?!

2

u/Frequent-Ferret-5110 4d ago

I don't think Air Bud's currently signed with a team

1

u/Lightning_owl1 THE SYSTEM 4d ago

Well we did have Mo Bamba at some point two years back. He's ont he Jazz rn tho so

u/Exzibit21 Blake Griffin 4d ago

We dont need another mascot

u/Nick4942 4d ago

I don’t know. It makes sense to me to put a gimmick sideshow attraction on the Clippers. Gotta put butts in seats at the end of the day because competing is out of the question.

u/Slavishthings 4d ago

This ^ competition is dead for the next decade this is consolidation period

u/JaguarAromatic5477 4d ago

yuki is a harlem blobetrotters player

Nooooooooo

u/Souchumtastic It's the Law 4d ago

Fire the Front Office!

u/pachimariparty 4d ago

Im so upset. I wanted him to stay so bad

1

u/blueberry_portal 4d ago

Sensible move, but I feel for Yuki. He's had to go through a lot of turnover and I imagine he has a strong mental to be able to stay focused despite hopping around from team to team.

u/TheFcknToro 3d ago

Jose Alvarado won a Championship there's no reason this guy couldn't

u/anthonydahuman 3d ago

BRO. IDk why this made me mad. its the one thing i was looking forward to.

u/Rambler923 2d ago

LA Clippers fans have waived the LA Clippers

u/Maximus_935 7h ago

this guy deadass the unluckiest player alive like he is actually very promising with his size but was only getting like 1-3 mins a game in chicago and now is playing hot potato around the league man

u/heirofsorrows Blake Griffin 5d ago

Our fanbase is dumb. Yuki is cool, but are we really getting upset over our franchise moving on from a 5’7 player who will never be meaningfully impactful in the NBA? A guy who would only take minutes away from Keaton? Sure, Yuki may be more deserving of a roster spot than Beal, but Beal was never even considered to be cut before the season starts. You guys are just looking for a reason to be mad when this franchise gives us PLENTY of other reasons. This is not one of them.

15

u/FrostyBrew86 5d ago

Yuki was a fun addition for many of us. That final slot at the end of the bench is highly unlikely to make any meaningful impact on our record, therefore-- since the slot is just for vibes, anyway-- might as well keep Yuki on board.

ワグラーだってゆっくり育てないとすぐ壊れるぞ?実践で使うと言ってもまだ効率良くないし

u/Canoli5000 4d ago

We knew he was getting waived. What was the point of even having him on the roster? Now the team takes another bad publicity hit that they created for themselves out of thin air.

Also Ty Lue let Yuki run point in the 2nd half verses the Raptors, but can't give Wagler, the 5th pick in the draft, the same opportunity to shine and showcase his ability? "Oh the other lotto picks are shining except Wagler." But look at what they're doing to him. Ty Lue spent the entire first half trying to find a good rotation around washed Lopez and fringe player Christie, and let Yuki run point while Wagler gets scraps and has to figure things out on his own. SMH

u/OneBurnerStove Norman Powell 5d ago

Yuki too short on defense bro. Life hard

u/nepats523 Corey Maggette 5d ago

Taller than Bradley Beal in a wheelchair
