One of those wins coming prior to the Harden trade against the Rockets. After the Harden team, they've beat the Orlando Magic and lost to the Lakers Knicks and Mavs.

The clippers record speaks for itself but they are not preying on under .500 teams either. Their record against sub .500 teams is 4-3.

This is a very bad team that has had an easy schedule so far with Harden, playing the tanking spurs back to back just recently.

It wouldn't be a stretch to assume they'll be a lottery team.

if only they could play every game against the spurs, a team that absolutely refuses to let you lose

B2B against the spurs would be a good chance to reset the season and start a new stretch of winning basketball, but the clippers just aren't that good

the elephant in the room is that kawhi leonard does not look particularly good.. he is not moving well and looks maybe injured or that the injuries over time have sapped his athleticism

westbrook.. kinda stinks. harden looks OK doing PNR with zubac but outside of that.. kinda stinks

paul george is decent but disappeared for most of the 2nd half yesterday. clippers can't afford that and who knows if PG can really carry a big usage load all season and end up with a decent seed

agreed. imagine playing a B2B against the spurs, with both games at home, and not even managing to win ONE of those games. would be embarassing tbh
