Another good wing player.
A lot of times teams throw their biggest and best perimeter defender on CP3. Klay, Leonard, Ariza, and Allen all have guarded CP3 in long stretches. They can do that because they know Matt Barnes and Reddick aren't much of a threat.

But it's ok, keep obsessing over your stats. And when CP3 fails to make it out of the second round as always I'm sure it's someone else's fault
Paul shot 6/7 in the 4th quarter of game 6 v OKC last season, how is that loss his fault?

The green bars under your username prove that you have more than 20 alts. Pathetic for caring so much about a internet message reputation.

can't rely on DJ do much offense though...he's all defense. I'd rather have a two-way front court like the Grizz, Gasol/ZBo, or even the Bulls, Noah/Gasol.

They need a closer... He could be on the team right now, CP3 can take over games but it's hit or miss on when he does it... CP3 can flat out disappear at times
Griffin? he's hard to get a handle on, still not sure if he's an elite player or an athletic freak in disguise.. he seems to have all the skills but something doesn't scream give me the ball get out of my way and I'll win this for you

better defense, team rebounding, and a better bench.

Re: What are the clippers missing to put them over the edge?
Blake needs to take a mini-leap now that he's squarely in his prime. He needs to be a reliable go-to player and/or playmaker. It's good his FT% has improved late in games. Teams are putting guys 6" or taller onto CP3 in fourth quarters and it disrupts the offense. CP3 is at the later part of his prime and has lost 2 steps since his New Orleans days and maybe a whole step since he got to LA. He has trouble finishing at the rim now. For reference, his right elbow jumper FG% is 53%, versus 55% at the rim.
They need 2-way wings, badly, including one that can create their own shot. GM Doc has been terrible in fixing this issue, which people have been harping on about for awhile now. I don't think you can win a title when your second best perimeter playmaker is Crawford. Not at his age, anyways.
Their depth is a joke. Doc was banking on T. Prince & Perkins being bought out to bolster their bench. In 2015. Ainge has sincerely trolled them since Doc left Boston. Pretty sure their starting 5 has best net rating in the league for the full year, and this team relies on Barnes a LOT. Their bench is searching for scrap heap solutions in March. That's not a good sign.
Shouldn't have let Gentry go.

A better bench, a better version of matt barnes and better defensive schemes.

I think they already have the right pieces. Just gotta play up to their potential, and STOP COMPLAINING OR WHINING ABOUT EVERY DAMN CALL.
