MVP: Chris Paul appeared in his 82nd game of the season, and he made a season-high six threes (out of 11 attempts) to lead the Clippers with 22 points. Paul had “only” six assists to go with one turnover, and he finished his April regular season with 80 assists and seven turnovers.
That was … the season, pretty much: The Clippers had a 30-point lead. The bench embarrassed themselves. The starters had to finish the game. You’ve seen this story before. It’s the favorite part of games for everyone who recycles the “Doc the GM screwing Doc the coach” narrative.
