The Clippers pull ahead late and beat the Spurs for their first win at the Intuit Dome

The film session examined how the Clippers blew double-digit leads in all of their games this season and highlighted how sloppy basketball played a role in four losses.

Maintain your influence, Clippers coach Tyronn Lue urged his players during the session; Stop turning the ball over with such high frequency.

To Lue's dismay, the Clippers got off to a bad start against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday, falling behind by 26 points in the first quarter with their defense on fire with seven turnovers.

But the Clippers didn't back down. They increased their defensive pressure in the second quarter and held the Spurs to 16 points. They didn't have a turnover in the second quarter and scored 34 points in the period to get within eight points of the lead at halftime.

Behind Norman Powell's 23 points and Amir Coffey's 21 points off the bench, the Clippers rolled to a 113-104 fourth-quarter victory over the Spurs on Monday, ending a three-game losing streak and giving the team its first win in the Intuit Dome.

Powell has scored at least 20 points in each of the last six games.

There was also a great shot from Coffey, who scored five to six from three-point range for the Clippers (3:4).

Ivica Zubac (17 points, 13 rebounds) had one of the game's biggest moments when he grabbed an offensive rebound late in the second quarter and threw a left-handed dunk over Victor Wembanyama. The Clippers center again dove over Wembanyama while being fouled in the fourth quarter.

“Yesterday's film session was more about (when) we're up 13, we're up 15 (and) we have two or three turnovers in a row, a team makes two or three threes, now it's a six-point game,” said Lue, whose team had only twelve turnovers against the Spurs. “That was the formula all along. When we get up, we turn the basketball over and then we can’t even get back in transition and they get easy baskets, which was tough.”

Wembanyana had 24 points, 13 rebounds and nine blocks for the Spurs (3-4), who played the game without legendary coach Gregg Popovich, 75, who is battling health issues.

Notes

Asked if Kawhi Leonard, who missed all seven regular-season games, played this week, Lue replied, “No.” The Clippers have three games left this week: Wednesday night at home against the 76ers and Paul George; on Friday in Sacramento and at home against Toronto.
