Introducing 'Wayoff P'

Misery Loves Company. Unfortunately for the Los Angeles Lakers, It Just Won't Be the Clippers Joining Them—Yet
For the second consecutive season, the Los Angeles Temecula Clippers have laid waste to the Dallas Mavericks in the opening round of the playoffs. Last year, during the unprecedented gauntlet that was the NBA Bubble, it was unsurprising. This postseason, however, their triumph has served as a statement to the rest of the league that the…

Sorry, Portland, But Y'all Don't Deserve Dame Lillard
In high school, there are two words that anyone who actually gives a shit about their GPA fears more than death itself: group project. I have vivid memories of sacrificing my evenings to bust my ass and complete a group presentation, only to discover that the idiots I was cursed with barely lifted a finger…

Molly, You're In Danger, Girl
Free falling into an 0-2 hole in the first round of the NBA Playoffs, especially against a Dallas Mavericks team that the Los Angeles Temecula Clippers purposely slid down the standings to play against, must be a humbling experience. But if you let the Clippers tell it, despite the very real possibility of this team…

On December 24, 2020, Nike (and I presume the Kobe Bryant estate, headed up by his wife Vanessa Bryant) decided to re-release the Nike Kobe Zoom 6 Protro in the green apple/black/volt-crimson colorway.

Pandemic Be Damned, Here's Who'll Be Competing in the 2021 NBA Slam Dunk Contest
It’s probably not the brightest idea to proceed with NBA All-Star Weekend considering we’re in the middle of a global pandemic. But since cash “fan engagement” takes precedence, according to NBA commissioner Adam Silver, we’re only a few days away from a basketball extravaganza that nobody asked for. Hell, even its own participants want nothing…

Pandemic be Damned, NBA Opening Night Was a Win for Everybody But COVID-19
I don’t know how you spent your Tuesday night, but since the coronavirus won’t let any of us be great, I hope you stayed your ass home and watched NBA basketball like the rest of us. But in the unfortunate event that you were off running the streets and being a super spreader like a…

Paul George, Clippers Agree to 5-Year Extension Worth Up to $226 Million: 'I Owe Them a Trophy'
2020 has been a rough year for all of us, but it’s been a particularly ugly year for the Los Angeles Temecula Clippers. After spending their 2019-20 offseason assembling the closest thing to Thanos and the Black Order that the NBA has seen in recent memory, the team left their Infinity Gauntlet at home and…

Instead of Looking In the Mirror, Paul George Throws Doc Rivers Under the Bus for Clippers' Failures
Paul George might be a lot of things, but I’ll tell you one thing he isn’t—and that’s a leader. Leaders not only inspire their teammates, but hold themselves accountable for their shortcomings. In the process, they earn the respect of their peers, elevate the play of the players around them, and provide value that doesn’t…
