The Clippers won 53 games last season, which was the sixth highest win total in the league. Very good, but not great. More is expected this season, especially with power forward Blake Griffin, who played just 35 games in 2015-16, returning to action. Here’s the LA Times reporting on Doc Rivers and the squad:

After four days of camp, Rivers concluded that this one was the “best training camp” since he first arrived in 2013.
Rivers said it was a “comfortable camp” and that his players “picked up” information “pretty quickly.”
“The learning curve was high,” Rivers said. “It was just a really good camp. From a coaching standpoint, they were very easy to coach. I hope I’m saying that later.”
All week long, Rivers said, Marreese Speights “has played the best” in practice, showing off his three-point shooting, giving the Clippers another weapon off the bench.
Rivers also said that Wesley Johnson had an impressive camp.
