00:00 Ralph Lawler has more experience covering the LA Clippers than anyone in the history of the world.
00:06 He spent 41 seasons as the voice of the Clippers. He's been around the team more than anyone.
00:10 He loves the team more than anyone, and that's not up for debate.
00:13 He did, however, say he didn't think this was a real championship team this year.
00:18 He spoke on the Lockdown Clippers podcast where he talked about the 2020 Clippers, great inquiries, postseason and more.
00:24 According to Ralph, he said, I never thought this was a real championship team.
00:28 You always have a chance. You get into the playoffs and someone sprains an ankle or something, but I didn't think their chances were good to win a championship.
00:34 He didn't even necessarily think that these Clippers were the greatest Clipper team of all time.
00:39 He thought that honor belonged to the 2013-2014 LA Clippers, the one that lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder after defeating the Warriors in seven games.
00:47 Now, while Ralph has more experience than anyone, it's hard to agree with him from the standpoint that on paper, this is the greatest Clippers team of all time.
00:55 At the end of the day, they just couldn't get the job done and they choked, and that's no different from the other Clipper teams.
01:01 But make no mistake, the 2020 Clippers have Kawhi Leonard, who is the best player that has ever put on a Clipper uniform.
