Your putting a lot of stock into the early deficit but again after that early portion this unit really had the clippers at bay for 2nd and 3 qtrs until KP got screwed
We don't have the horses to play small ball with them because their wings are longer than ours and more Atheletic
With KP, Kleber and DFS as stated before you loose some offense but you make up for it defensively.
If you think your just going to win games by out gunning the clippers it'll be a sweep

You clearly didn't watch the game. Rick switched lineups after Luka tweaked his his ankle. That lineup wasn't used again the entire 1st half. We didn't get back into the game until after MKG and Curry hit 2 3pters a piece. That right there was 12 points.
They started the (Luka, THJ, DFS, Maxi, KP) lineup again in the 2nd half and couldn't score.
The lineup is bad. The eye test and the stats show it. It has been bad the whole season.
