The LA Clippers just lost to the Indiana Pacers… again. Sure, they had Paul George this time (who was bothered well by Luc Mbah a Moute‘s stellar defensive efforts), but after going up 23-8 early and finishing the first quarter up 28-17, the Clippers had established their control. They were still up 52-48 at the half. Despite a handful of early turnovers, they jumped out ahead and should have all the talent and depth at both ends of the floor to close out the deal against a weaker team at home.
Plus, after being embarrassed 91-70 by the Pacers earlier last week, the Clippers should have had an extra level of motivation to restore order fuelling them, too.
