Hang Time Podcast (Episode 230) Featuring J.J. Redick

Published: March 9, 2016, 6:06 p.m.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS When Doc Rivers revamped his bench in the offseason he made sure the Los Angeles Clippers would be one of the most intriguing teams in the NBA this season. Even now, after shipping both Josh Smith and Lance Stephenson out, the Clippers remain a team of intrigue. They have an elite coach in Rivers, superstars in Chris Paul and Blake Griffin (yes, he'll be back), one of the league's best rim protectors and rebounders in DeAndre Jordan, a super sixth-man in Jamal Crawford and one of the league's deadliest pure shooters in J.J. Redick. So what's holding them back? Why are they stuck in the fourth spot in the Western Conference standing? It might have something to do with the reigning champions up in Oakland. The Golden State Warriors on a historic roll this season and the San Antonio Spurs aren't far off the pace. And then there is the matter of that two-headed superstar monster from Oklahoma City. So perhaps it's understandable, the Clippers' current predicament. Even as they continue to shine without Griffin in the lineup, they still have ground to make up in the standings. We dig deep on the Clippers and much more on Episode 230 of The Hang Time Podcast featuring J.J. Redick.
