LOS ANGELES – It’s mid-March and a simple question has yet to yield any solid answers.
Who are the Clippers?
Some nights, they’ve looked like bona fide darkhorse contenders, a team forgotten because of Golden State’s transcendence and the Spurs continuous proficiency.
And others, they’re pedestrian.
They looked overwhelmed Sunday against Cleveland, disinterested in other home losses. But, they go out on the road and battle for a dominant win in Dallas and a defensive battle in Atlanta.
As Coach Doc Rivers pointed out Sunday, the records at home and on the road essentially mirror one another, with the Clippers owning one more loss (12) at Staples Center than on the road (11).
