I thought the minutes with KP playing PF next to Boban at center helped preserve and protect him. He was able to take less of the pounding as LA had to focus on guarding and hacking Bobi. The defensive length of the 2 of them was also remarked on by the commentators, very disruptive of the Clip offense.
Yeah, KP still hasn't looked like he's found a groove yet, but in the scheme of things his size and his spacing threat (actually made a big timely 3) was part of a winning strategy.
