Opponent points per game is one of the first places to look when narrowing down the NBA's weakest defenses. The LA Clippers average 115.1 points allowed per game, which is solid, yet in four of their seven games, 120 or more points were given up, which is directly due to their lack of prime-year players.
How many guys can the Clippers say they currently employ in their prime? The only for-sure answer they will have is: Ivica Zubac, John Collins, Derrick Jones Jr., and Kris Dunn.
These four are great, some having the best years of their career this season, but none of them have been an All-Star, and are far from being labeled as a superstar.
