Teams Preview

LA Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers qualified for the playoffs last year with ease and faced first-round exit against the Denver Nuggets in a seven-game thriller. This season, the Clippers moved into the Play-In Tournament and their first assignment is against the Warriors. The loser of this game will be eliminated. The Clippers finished above .500 and posted a 42-40 record in the regular season. 

The Clippers finished ninth in the Western Conference. They got a home advantage against Golden State in the elimination game. Los Angeles met Golden State in the final game of the regular season where they had a laugh. During the ongoing season, the Clippers gained a 3-1 advantage against the Warriors. They even won the pre-season game against them. The Clippers are averaging 113.8 points per game and allowing 112.6 points per game. 

The LA Clippers are seventh in three-point shooting (36.8%) and fourth from the floor (48.4%). They rank seventh in the steals per game (9.0). The hosts are leading in the free throw percentage (82.3%). If we pick out the offensive threat on this side, Kawhi Leonard is the right name. The 34-year-old star averaged 27.9 points in the ongoing season. We back him to score 15 or more points in this game.  He is listed on a day-to-day basis for the home game. 

Golden State Warriors

Golden State Warriors are back again in the NBA Play-In Tournament. Last year, they went into the same situation but survived. They faced the second-round exit against the Timberwolves. Curry’s injury was also decisive. This year, they are in the elimination game in LA and their assignment is against the LA Clippers, who beat them thrice this season. 

The Warriors are coming off a 110-115 loss to the Clippers. They finished the regular season with a 36-45 record in the Western Conference. They were never in the playoff race during the season. Golden State featured in the Play-In Tournament four times out of the last seven seasons. They averaged 114.6 points per game and allowed 115.2 points per game. 

The Warriors are shooting 44.6% from the floor and 35.6% from the three-point line. Golden State are ranked second in steals per game (9.7) and three points made per game (15.7). If we figure out the offensive threat for the upcoming game, Stephen Curry is the right name. The veteran scored 24 points in the last game against the Clippers. He is a big match player so we back him to score 15 or more points in the road fixture.
