Tyronn Lue expressed frustration over the Los Angeles Clippers' recent performances, particularly following a 122-97 loss to the Lakers. He highlighted the team's failure to start games strongly and their defensive lapses, stating the need for a change in mindset. Despite prior success this season, the team's last three games have been disappointing, with the coach emphasizing self-reflection among players. Kawhi Leonard managed only 11 points, expressing uncertainty about the effort issues, while James Harden had a poor outing. Lue praised new additions Patty Mills and Drew Eubanks but acknowledged the upcoming trade deadline as a potential opportunity for further team adjustments.
