This is the best the Clippers have looked offensively in the James Harden era

Clippers are playing with, yes, pace to push their lead from 10 to 20 over the course of the last four minutes. Kawhi took off running after a made Spurs basket to get a layup, then Harden pushed it after a Spurs miss to get PG a layup.

The Clippers getting Daniel Theis for free has been an absolute life saver so far.
The chemistry with him and Russell Westbrook in the second unit has been impressive already.

Harden found the plays in which he scored across past Wembanyama futile efforts. Russell Westbrook posted 10 points and six assists in the Clippers-handled match.
The Clippers line-up has started getting their groove back, and it seems the veterans know the ways of the game.
However, their next match will be against the Dallas Mavericks and will be a test of their new rotational squad.
