The good news is that Blake Griffin says he’s close. And he probably makes his return in the next week or two. The bad news is that the Clippers have to play the Mavs, Thunder, Cavs, Spurs, Rockets, Grizzlies, Warriors, Blazers, Celtics and Thunder (again) over the next few weeks.
That isn’t a kind schedule as the playoff push approaches.

Los Angeles Clippers (40-21)
Last week: 2-1
Last rank: 7
Even though the Los Angeles Clippers are only one game behind the Oklahoma City Thunder in the loss column for the third seed, I’m not sure I’d expect them to jump OKC at all this season. And that has nothing to do with the Clippers or the Thunder. It has to do with the schedule.
