The NFL season just concluded with the L.A. Rams being crowned champions. Considering it was the Super Bowl, a lot of fans showed up to cheer. Among those fans, players from the NBA were also present. LeBron James and many other NBA players even reacted to the Rams winning the NFL Championship.
But the superstar duo of the Los Angeles Clippers, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George certainly caught the attention of the fans. Both players were there to enjoy the Super Bowl, but fans quickly made it about them not being on the court for the Clippers.
While Leonard was already injured when the new season began, George was still available to play. But later, he also picked up an injury, essentially leaving the Clippers in a bad spot.
As a result, they have dropped to the eighth seed in the Western Conference with a record of 28-30. Understandably fans are not happy with the team’s current performance and will hope for it to change.

If I was a Clippers fan, I would be sick to my stomach. Not because of this picture….because I am a Clippers fan.

Imagine the day we actually see them on a court together! They’ll lose before they get to the finals… again

Since the two superstars have joined forces, many Clippers fans have believed that they will win an NBA Championship. Unfortunately, in the last two seasons, the duo has failed to do so.
Moreover, their quest to win a title will have to wait even longer since it is almost impossible for the team to win one this season. With that said, they will have another chance at it in the next season.
Hopefully, the superstar duo of Leonard and George will be healthy. Otherwise, who knows for how long the Clippers’ drought of NBA Championship will continue.
