The 2013-2014 Los Angeles Clippers
The 2013-2014 Clippers finished with the third-best record in the league with a franchise high 57 regular season wins. The team, who had acquired head coach Doc Rivers, shooting guard J.J. Redick, and small forward Jared Dudley in the offseason, led the league in points per game at 107.9 per game and finished the season with a league leading offensive rating of 112.1 points. Blake Griffin had a season for the ages, becoming the fifth player in league history to average 24 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game and finishing third in MVP voting. Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan were both doing their things, with Paul averaging 19.1 points and 10.7 assists and Jordan averaging 10.4 points and 13.6 rebounds. Redick had a stellar first season in LA, averaging 15.2 points and shooting 39 percent from three and Jamal Crawford won his second NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award, averaging 18.6 points off the bench for the Clippers. Lob City was in full effect with the 13′-14′ Clippers and the team was routinely making highlight plays on a game-by-game basis.
If teams like the 12′-13′ Memphis Grizzlies and 13′-14′ Indiana Pacers are deserving of spots on 2k’s historic team lineup, then the 13′-14′ Clippers should be a well-deserved addition to the next NBA 2k game.
