Prior to the 2013-14 NBA season, the Los Angeles Clippers made a stunning trade, sending a first-round pick to the Boston Celtics in exchange for head coach Doc Rivers.
It gave the Clippers a championship coach to lead their star-studded roster that featured Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and DeAndre Jordan. On the other side of things, the Warriors were the up-and-comers, fresh off their first postseason appearance since We Believe, starting to gel around Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green.
