LOS ANGELES — When the Clippers signed Russell Westbrook this week, coach Tyronn Lue said he wasn't expecting miracles from the nine-time All-Star and future Hall of Famer. The Clippers, Lue said, "want Russ to be Russ." The question after the Clippers' entertaining but appalling 176-175 double-overtime loss to the Kings wasn't whether Russ will be Russ. The Clippers entered Friday's game ranked fourth in the NBA points allowed per game at 111.1. "It's about what I imagined," George said of Westbrook's fit in his debut.
