The LA Clippers were 6-21 about a month ago. Since December 20, they have been the best team in the league with the highest net rating for a record of 12-2.
Ty Lue a few weeks ago said his hope was to go 35-20 to close out the year and everyone laughed at him.
Everyone laughed at us saying we were about to hand OKC a lottery pick and now we’re 4.5 games from the 8th seed.
12-2 stretch where they were 5-2 against teams over .500.
Highest net rating (9.8) during that stretch, second would be Boston at 8.7.
Kawhi has been playing like a top 6 player and arguably the best 2-way player in the league averaging 32.7ppg, 6.9rpg, 3.8apg on 66% TS and 2.6steals per game and 1 block per game.
I said a few weeks ago that we would be competing for the 8th seed by the end of January and we’re on track. Very concerning time for the rest of the league with the way we’ve been playing. Warriors fans probably don’t want anything do with a play in situation with us and with how the Thunder and Jscru—dub have looked a 1⁄8 matchup with us would be terrible for them as well.
