That's why I am affraid it will be difficult to expect such a huge jump on both ends of the floor. Perhaps Clippers are just totally bad match up for him and he would do better against a team where primary creators are smaller than Kawhi/PG13 and can't abuse him in the paint.
JB's lack of length hurt him on BOTH ends in the playoffs this past year. He was effective on both ends during the regular season, but the LAC matchup and his first playoffs were not good for him.
