In anticipation of the Sacramento Kings’ matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, Kings head coach Mike Brown praised the Clippers’ formidable lineup, emphasizing the presence of four future Hall of Famers in their starting five.
Brown acknowledged the star-studded roster featuring Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, James Harden, and Russell Westbrook, highlighting the significant advantage it provides on the court.
Reflecting on his time with the Golden State Warriors, Brown drew parallels to the Clippers’ lineup, emphasizing the synergy and effectiveness that such a talented roster can achieve under the guidance of a skilled coach like Ty Lue.
“They have four future Hall of Famers in their starting five. That helps,” Brown said. “When I was in Golden State, we had that, we clicked a lot. It’s a big advantage when you have that and guys can still play, and they’re not guys that are way past their prime. Ty Lue just does a heck of a job with that group. Just a matter of time before you’re going to figure it out and they have.”
