In their most recent game against Oklahoma City Thunder, the Clippers fell short with a final score of 107-129. Despite leading for just over four minutes and achieving a seven-point lead at one point, they struggled defensively, allowing the Thunder to dominate with an offensive rating that outpaced theirs significantly. The Clippers managed an effective field goal percentage of 52 percent but were hindered by a defensive rating that ballooned to over 123 points per 100 possessions.


Before facing the Thunder, the Clippers had an impressive win against Golden State Warriors where they scored 130 points. Their offensive performance was notable with an effective field goal percentage of 57 percent and free throw accuracy standing strong at 78 percent. They led for nearly four-and-a-half minutes and had better control over turnovers compared to their opponents.

However, in another home game prior to this victory, they faced defeat from Minnesota Timberwolves with only 100 points on their side while giving up 121 points. This game highlighted some defensive issues as well; they allowed too many points in paint (64) and had trouble containing fast breaks.


The upcoming match presents another opportunity for redemption as they take on the Bucks away from home. Fans should watch closely how Coach Tyronn Lue adjusts strategies particularly on defense after analyzing these past performances.
