It may not have been too pretty most of the time, but the Los Angeles Clippers have won seven of their last 10 games and are finally getting the results that fans would have expected from their reloaded team. Regardless of how convincing some of their performances have been, a least a win is a win. They’ve closed out a few more narrow games and have more intensity.
What’s the reason for this turnaround? Along with some other factors such as a healthy Chris Paul and J.J. Redick and altered rotations, defense has undoubtedly been the key to the Clippers’ success.
