Not really sure why they had him out there for so long. He has a huge negative impact on the team's spacing and defense when he doesn't have the ball in his hands. Clippers don't really need his playmaking when kawhi and PG having it going so there's no point to him playing so much.

Other than the panicked shot at the buzzer when he probably should've kicked it out to Batum, he wasn't a negative down the stretch. The only reason he had the ball at all at the end was because he got the offensive board. The 4 turnovers in the first half were bad but, you know, he cleaned those up in the 2nd half.

Like you suggested, without Mann, they don't have other options. Clippers don't have much depth.
