Tanking is the obvious choice for the LA Clippers as missing the playoffs would allow them to retain their draft pick from the Boston Celtics; it would give the Clippers a lottery pick and save them from another potentially quick playoff exit.
Although Clipper Nation goes nuts every time this scrappy, energetic Clippers team mounts 20-point comebacks. You talk to most Clippers fan, and they tell you tanking is the right decision; but, why all of Clipper Nation was in complete bliss when Patrick Beverly hit those two three-pointers to put a bow on the team’s historic 28-point comeback against the Boston Celtics.
