Clippers notes: Marreese Speights calls 2017 ‘a fresh start’ for the team

Before Monday’s game with the Phoenix Suns, Marreese Speights was ready to guard against an extended conversation about one of the problems that has plagued the Clippers on their recent winless three-game trip. Speights swatted away any talk about his team’s problems in the open court, where they were outscored, 83-10, in fastbreak points.
