The 2014 Clippers-Warriors series was a treat for hoop fans, starring generational talents on each side. Both Western Conference teams had 50+ wins during the regular season, respectively, and were touted as the future of the league.
Living up to all the hype, the series would go down to a Game Seven. Both sides left everything on the floor, but in the end, the Clippers reigned supreme. While Blake Griffin and Chris Paul were the talking points on most occasions, the services of an essential member went unnoticed.
A core member of the Lob City cast, DeAndre Jordan, played a vital role in the Clippers’ triumph over GSW. Leading his team in rebounds, the 6-foot-11 center was solid on both ends of the floor, silently filling up his stat sheet.
