The verdict is in and the Clippers are handed the steepest punishment in league history after the cap-circumvention investigation comes to an end. Ballmer and Zucker suspended for a year, Lawrence Frank suspended for 6 months, a 30 million dollar fine and 5 first round picks stripped. OH MY! With this future altering series of sanctions, as well as Kawhi (finally) being traded back to Toronto for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick and a (much needed) haul of draft capital, what does this mean for the organization and, most importantly, the fans, moving forward. Rola and Nick talk about ALL of it on this jam-packed episode.  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe! Thank you for tuning in!

*Full Disclaimer, Clipper Nation. This episode was recorded a few days before The Investigation was concluded, so some of this is "old news" but the offseason acquisition discussion is still very much relevant*  After some time off, Nick briefly discusses some of the new faces in Clipper Land as the team navigates a tumultuous offseason, to say the least  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

The Basketball Gods smile upon the Clippers for the first time in a long time, as the franchise will be picking 5th(!) overall in the stacked 2026 NBA Draft, a monumental reward as a result of the Pacers pick from the Ivica Zubac trade being conveyed. With a dizzying amount of possibilities from draft prospects like Keaton Wagler, Darius Acuff Jr., Mikel Brown Jr. and more, to the possibility of acquiring even more draft capital with a trade this offseason, the future has gotten a whole lot brighter for the Los Angeles Clippers and we are here to talk all about it!  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

After the Warriors handled the Clippers in the play-in tournament, it's officially over. The season that begun in the bedrock, then vaulted into vintage Comeback Story status, saw the beginning of something fresh and new, then plateaued, then fell apart. The Clippers' 2025-2026 season was not for the weak; thankfully, Clipper Nation has seen just about everything and here we stand. This season brought a lot of disappointment and even more questions, but it also brought the kindling to light the flames of a new era. With the Draft Lottery just weeks away, Clipper Nation has a lot to be excited (or nervous) about!  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

After a brutal loss to the Portland Trailblazers in the 2nd to last game of the regular season, the Clippers' road to the playoffs becomes a lot more precarious, as they now must win TWO play in games to have a chance to take on the OKC Thunder i round 1 of the playoffs. Golden State and the Baby-Faced Assassin await in the first of these two games and the Clippers must bring their absolute A-game to move on. Clipper Nation, buckle up!

The Clippers sit a half-game ahead of the Portland Trailblazers at the 8th seed, to either hold on for a likely matchup against the Suns to compete for the 7th seed play-in game, or fall to the lower half of the tournament bracket. 4 more games left to decide their fate with a lot of variables including iJax rehabbing an injury, a lineup shift, and a few players working their way back to form. A very interesting week or so awaits Clipper Nation, and we can't wait to see the results! Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe! Thank you for tuning in!

The Clippers (unsurprisingly) lose back to back games against the lowly Pelicans, but find a way to bounce back in a OT thriller against the Mavs and a blowout win against Doc and the Bucks! With just a handful of games left, and a relatively easier schedule ahead, the Clippers must continue to build on this momentum if they want a good chance of a postseason run!

After the 6-21 start, the Clippers battle their way back to a .500 record! With a big boost from the younger guys, spearheaded by the MVP-esque performances from Kawhi, the squad hope to continue their strong push for a possible play-in matchup against the Phoenix Suns. Only a handful of games remain...where will fate lead the Clippers at regular seasons end? Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe! Thank you for tuning in!

The new look Clippers maintain the fighting spirit through a tough case of bad injury luck, with Kawhi, John Collins and Yanic all falling victim to their respective "bumps and bruises". Next man up mentality has never been more true with this team as a brutal March schedule is upon us, and it is up to this rejuvenated Clippers squad to build chemistry in real time and band together to continue the fight for a spot in the playoffs!   Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

After the dust of the trade deadline settles, the new look Clippers split a stretch of 4 games, with the final COMBINED point differential in the single-digits! Led by Kawhi and newcomer Benn Mathurin, this Clipper team is showing that, even after trading away James Harden and Ivica Zubac, there is no lack of fight. With the team eagerly awaiting Darius Garland's fast-approaching debut, Clipper Nation has a lot to be excited about!  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

The Clippers surprise everyone with an extremely eventful trad deadline, and Clipper Nation wishes a fond farewell to James Harden, Ivica Zubac, Kobe Brown and Chris Paul. The Beard left plenty of great memories during his two and a half years with the team, as he heads to Cleveland to pair up with Donovan Mitchell. Big Zu came to the Clippers as a young man with a lot of raw talent and, in 7 seasons, grew into one of the most productive and efficient centers in the entire league, and a top 5 player at his position. Clipper Nation is eternally grateful. In return, the Clippers acquire a stock of young talent and draft picks in the form of multi-time All Star point guard Darius Garland and exciting swingman Ben Mathurin, along with the limitless ferocity of Isaiah Jackson. Two first round picks (one of which has the chance of conveying as a top-10 pick in this upcoming draft class), the Clippers find themselves poised for a bright future! Do they have enough to continue to make a statement this year behind Captain Kawhi?  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe! Thank you for tuning in!

Your LA Clippers keep chugging along, tallying wins, and the vibes are becoming better with each game. Cautiously optimistic, Clipper Nation has been happy to see what continues to be the hottest team in basketball show out for their fans, highlighted by an exciting win against the Lakers and a dominant showing against Terance Mann and the Brooklyn Nets; a game that will forever be known as The Paperbowl. The trade deadline is about a week away, but with the possible resurgence of the Clippers as a highly-competitive team again, what will the Clippers choose to do?  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!

The Los Angeles Clippers keep the fun going with another win streak and continue to be the hottest team in basketball since December 20th, with a record of 12-2 since that time. With a mixture of elite-level play from Kawhi and Harden, two-way contributions from guys like John Collins and Kris Dunn, and rock-solid efforts from all of the young guys, the notion that this winning play is a fluke has gone out the window. With the trade deadline approaching and much of Clipper Nation trying to figure out where they stand on the ideal path forward, there is plenty to talk about and you can hear about it all on this episode!  Follow on twitter/X and Instagram at @ClipServicePod Comment and Subscribe!
