Forgotten Seasons

The Lob City Clippers were a highlight factory but one of the more disappointing groups in NBA history. Despite all of their talent, the team never made it past the second round of the playoffs and was on the wrong side of some brutal collapses. In this episode, the team's starting small forward, Matt Barnes, joins Dylan Dreyfuss to relive the 2015 Clips season. This was year two of the Doc Rivers era and year four of the CP3/Blake/Deandre Big 3, and there were no more excuses left; it was championship or bust. Matt details the on-court chemistry issues that plagued the group, explains what went wrong in the infamous Houston series, reminisces on the good times (there were a lot!) that the group had together, and much more. Thanks for listening.
