It’s almost midnight, and I haven’t written properly about the Clippers in over two years, but after tonight, I can’t keep myself away from the keyboard. The Clippers were just knocked out of the playoffs by the back-to-back champion Golden State Warriors in 6 games. And if I’m being totally honest, I’m staring at this crumpled ticket in a state of complete shock right now.
It’s not because the Clippers lost—we know how good this Warriors team is—but it’s that this team’s story went as far as it did.
This team was supposed to win 35 games.
