The Los Angeles Clippers are in the midst of another disappointing season that may end in heartbreak after a recent injury to Paul George sidelined him for the rest of the regular season. The struggles have been ongoing for a while, with coach Tyronn Lue taking the brunt of the blame. He revealed that he's actually missed 7 family funerals since December trying to be accountable to the team amidst its struggles. "Since December, I lost 7 family members from Mexico. But we lost 6 games in a row so I can't leave my team behind. I know I should be there for my family and it's been a tough time for my family that wants me there but like, 7 family members since December and I didn't go to 1 funeral because we lost 5 games in a row. I can take the easy way out and say I'll go home for a week, but I feel like I couldn't do that. Sometimes, you give the game too much... Had we won 5 in a row, I would've been home for at least 3 of the funerals."
