Russell Westbrook is about to get his revenge on everybody with the clips. Him/PG/Kawhi is a a lot better match than him/day-davis/Bron. I actually hope they match up within the playoffs, simply don’t know if the Lakers may even make it in.

Russ goes to be within the playoffs however will the Lakers? If I needed to wager Russ could have the final giggle.
The Lakers and Clippers play yet another recreation in the course of the common season on April 5, which will likely be a extremely mentioned matchup.
After all, either side will likely be closely targeted on the standings for the remainder of the season.
The Lakers have been simply 27-32 heading into the All-Star break, sitting thirteenth within the Western Convention. Even with LeBron James and Anthony Davis on the roster, the workforce has an uphill battle to achieve the playoffs.
The Clippers are presently fourth within the West with a 33-28 document, though solely 5 video games separate the 2 groups and each might find yourself competing within the play-in event.
A attainable elimination recreation between the 2 Los Angeles groups, with Westbrook entrance and middle, would create one of many extra memorable video games of the yr.
