Ranking all 26 starting units the Los Angeles Clippers have used this year
No. 3
Bradley, Gallinari, Harris, Jordan, Rivers (56.5, 2-1)
A dim light grows brighter in the horizon. Where hopes and dreams have died, new ones are born.
The new starting rotations that have debuted since Griffin was sent to Detroit have flat-out dominated the opposition. When these five are present at tip-off, they posted a net rating of 41.5, good for the team’s third-best mark of the season.
Gallinari has shown his true potential while starting at the 4, while Harris’s length and agility make him a lethal wing. Together, this group has looked far better than most imagined, especially considering how new Harris and Bradley are to the team.
Against the Brooklyn Nets, Harris posted a team-high 24 in plus-minus, and the rotation as a whole looked on point early in the game.
Whether Doc should continue to run with this lineup versus the next is up for debate, but either should be effective.
