Revisiting LA Clippers high points from the 2010s
With the 2010s now in the rear view mirror, it is time to take a look back at the high points of each LA Clippers season of the decade.
The past decade, there are a couple of things that come in mind when you think about the LA Clippers. The first is, of course, the Lob City era, a trio of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan. Who did not love seeing those great lobs from Paul? However, there are other things that come to mind.

This should not be a surprise, but their decade was quite a disappointment. Six straight playoff appearance, breaking the franchise record for wins in a season, three All-NBA caliber players and zero conference finals appearance.
It has been a disappointment mainly due to the number of injuries this team suffered, particularly in the playoffs.
There were some good times. There were times where it did look it was their year, but that hope quickly died after someone got injured, disappeared in the playoffs or even due to bad officiating.
That pretty much sums up most of the decade for the Clippers; underachieved, injuries and disappointing.
On the other hand, towards the end of the decade, it seems like the Gods of basketball have just been blessing the Clippers, but that is later down the road; we first have to start at the beginning of the decade.
Starting in 2009-10, the season where the first domino had fallen.
