Ranking all 26 starting units the Los Angeles Clippers have used this year
No. 6
Griffin, Jordan, Teodosic, Wallace, L. Williams (18.1, 1-0)
It must take a blind squirrel 10 years to find a nut, because that’s how long Jordan went without missing a single game due to injury.
Rivers rolled with this lineup just once, although it’s safe to say we would’ve seen it more often had DJ not hurt his ankle in the first quarter of a January game against the Sacramento Kings. You’ll see more on that shortly, as the following lineup is the same, simply with Reed replacing Jordan.
Without Jordan’s presence, this starting rotation didn’t get a chance to run together very long. However, when they were all together, they posted a net rating of 8.1.
Most of this was from the benefit of playing a weaker opponent in the Kings, but still. We would’ve loved to have seen this lineup start games more often.
