NBA Power Rankings 2025-26: Thunder Dominate Again, But Which Unexpected Team Crashes the Top Five?
23. Los Angeles Clippers
(3-6, last week No. 16)
Back-to-back home losses to Miami and Oklahoma City last week highlighted how much teams are trying to run on the Clippers, the league’s oldest team. “Our half-court defense is pretty good, so teams are going to play fast against us,” Clippers coach Tyronn Lue said. “They’re going to try to beat us up and down the floor, because, you know, we are an older, slower team.” Those two home losses also highlight something else: Last season, LAC was 30-11 at home – the 4th-best home record in the NBA. That has not been the case this season, where the Clippers are 3-3 at Intuit Dome (and 0-3 on the road). Dropping both ends of a home-and-home with Phoenix by double digits last weekend was ugly.
