After earning what was easily their best start in franchise history at 14-2, the LA Clippers have since gone 2-5 in their last seven games. Now at 16-7, with ugly losses to the Reggie Jackson-less Detroit Pistons, Paul George-less Indiana Pacers, the Brooklyn Nets, and most recently getting blown out at Staples Center 115-98 by the Golden State Warriors, the Clippers haven’t just had one or two off nights.
An initial lapse in Detroit as the second game of their six-game road trip has started what’s turned into a full stretch of largely poor play.
