Doc Rivers says the Clippers have been inconsistent

00:00 Doc Rivers says the LA Clippers have been inconsistent in the bubble and he's not wrong.

00:05 Clippers have been a largely frustrating team to watch in the bubble going 3-3 overall.

00:11 Their three wins are against the Pelicans, the Mavericks, and the Blazers.

00:15 And their three losses are against the Lakers, the Suns, and the Nets.

00:19 Two of those three are under 500 teams which were supposed to be their easiest team on the schedule.

00:25 And in terms of the Blazers, it was a team they were practically trying to lose against.

00:30 They didn't play Paul George in the fourth in the closing minutes,

00:34 they didn't play any starters in the fourth, and they rested Kawhi Leonard and still managed to win.

00:38 And so when you look at everything they've done, it's been kind of frustrating because the team has played with a flip the switch mentality.

00:46 In those losses against the Suns and the Nets, they tried to flip the switch on at certain times instead of just playing a good 48 minutes.

00:53 Even against the Lakers, they didn't play a good 48 minutes.

00:56 All the Clippers need to do is play a good 48 minutes and they're not doing that.

01:01 Dark Rivers mentioned, "I think we've been inconsistent. We've had a lot of guys in and out."

01:05 Obviously not the way you would plan on heading into the playoffs, but it is what it is.

01:10 And a large reason why the Clippers have been inconsistent is because their roster has been inconsistent.

01:16 They've had up to six players missing during the bubble during training camp and still have key players missing during the seeding games,

01:23 and they need Montrezl Harrell back sooner than later.
