“Took your foot off the gas? Up 3-1 and Easing Off the Gas? Ice Cube’s Son Criticizes Lou Williams’ ‘Bubble’ Championship Assertion”

Lou Williams, the former standout player for the LA Clippers, recently made audacious claims regarding the team’s performance in the 2020 NBA bubble. At that time, only a select number of teams participated in the bubble due to the widespread feаr of the CоVID-19 pаndemic. While the teams that ultimately decided to finish the season were regarded as courageous for taking the rιsk, some players, including Williams, expressed their reluctance to be part of the bubble environment.

According to Williams, during the mid-bubble season, he and the Clippers seriously contemplated ending their participation and returning home. However, the allure of competing for a championship made it challenging for them to walk away so easily. Despite their initial commitment, Williams revealed that criticism from fans and analysts regarding the legitimacy of the 2020 NBA championship took a tоll on the Clippers’ motivation. In response, Williams stated, “We started to hear the rumblings that nobody is going to respect this chip, so we kind of just took our foot off the gas.”

O’Shea Jackson Jr., the prominent rapper and son of Ice Cube, strongly reacted to Williams’ statements. Jackson Jr. accused the former Clippers star of dishonesty, emphasizing his team’s significant 3-1 lead over the Denver Nuggets in the 2020 NBA Playoffs. Jackson Jr. took to Twitter to express his disbelief, saying, “Lmfaooooo took your foot off the gas. Up 3-1? When did you take your foot off the gas when you were up 18 at halftime of game 6? And then what y’all just knew y’all were winning the chip right? So you dismantled your roster the next year? That’s why y’all let Trezz (Montrezl Harrell) go? CAAAP.”
