The Warriors got clipped Monday night, but they weren't the first team this season to blow a big lead against the Los Angeles Clippers.

LA also came back from deficits of 20 points (or more) three times on a seven-game road trip in Feburary, but Golden State's 135-131 loss in Game 2 of the NBA playoff first-round series was historic ... for the wrong reasons, if you're a Warriors fan.

Golden State's blown 31-point lead was the largest in NBA playoff history.
Of course, Warriors fans have seen those digits before, but they've probably buried them deep in the recesses of their memory after the 2016 NBA Finals.
