Overall team play

How will this team play? Will they come out flat? It has been a while since they have played with each other. Everybody knows the quality may suffer in the early stages but teams haven’t played in a while and it will be interesting to see how the chemistry will be for the teams. The Clippers have some of the best chemistry in the NBA. We’ll see how that plays out during the competition.

Role players are crucial pieces during playoff runs. An X-factor can carry you through a tough game or a tough series. How will the Clippers role players look?

Leonard was well-rested last year and we saw how that turned out. George suffered last year with his shoulder injury. After this long layoff, we will see how he fares.
