“Based on Ramona Shelburne’s six-episode “30 for 30” podcastThe Sterling Affairs,Clippedopens with a telling bit of narration from V. Stiviano (Cleopatra Coleman), the young personal assistant/sidepiece whose recording would eventually bring Sterling (Ed O’Neill) down. Though the series flashes briefly to the bombshell to come, creator Gina Welch works hard to set up the Clippers’ losing culture by starting with the man determined to change it: Doc Rivers (Laurence Fishburne), the newly appointed head coach of the 2013-2014 team.” — Scott Tobias
