Swanson: Clippers have makings of great team – if only they add Kawhi Leonard


by @sbsun

@sbsun— Paul George, James Harden and a capable Clippers contingent can advance in the playoffs without Leonard, but to win a series against teams like the Timberwolves, Nuggets or Celtics, they will need the Klaw.

@SGVTribune—Swanson: Clippers have trouble reincorporating Kawhi Leonard. The team’s 32-year-old leading man is trying to manage the effects of knee inflammation while trying to ramp up to something resembling his six-time All-Star self, but he looked more like a decoy in their Game 3 loss to the Mavericks.
