If the next few months are to be spent analyzing the future of Giannis Antetokounmpo and his future with the Milwaukee Bucks, it is only fair and right to now spin the same spotlight on the LA Clippers.
It's stunning that this is where the Clippers are after the Denver Nuggets completed another 3-1 comeback, taking Game 7 104-89 and the second-round Western Conference playoff series on Tuesday night. This season was ticketed to be the Clippers' ascendancy, not a derailment -- but things move fast in the NBA.
