Edit: on defense at least.
But your statement (in theory) should apply to both offense and defense which is what's so upsetting about KP right now.
I think the point of having both of the big fellas out there (instead of one) was to play a zone that kept KL and PG out of the lane and away from the basket to start the game. It was a tone setter. And it worked! If the Clippers would have hit all those 3 pointers it would have been a disaster. But they didn't, which is nice.
