A befitting day to wrap up a gruelling and tedious day in the dramatic land of NBA 2019-20, when LA Clippers step out in the closing affair of the day, we are going to be feasted in a worldclass brand of basketball. The third placed side in the Western Conference needed time to settle into their groove, enduring a topsy-turvy start to the league, one they have put to bed with a spree of wins.
However, the side’s ambitions of embarking on a speckle free run where halted with a defeat to Sacramento Kings before the side managed to turnaround that performance the last time around. The 150-125 win over Washington Wizards was a much needed one, acting as a short in their arm as they thumped and routed their opponents to showcase the attacking exuberance prevalent in the side.
And up against a dwindling Portland Trail Blazers side today, LA Clippers will be looking to emanate the same rousing and rampant display. It’s an opponent they can easily pull off that exemplary display against as well with Portland Trail Blazers coming bearing an 8-12 record from their 20 outings in the showpiece league, results which have left them obliterated in 11th place.
However, LA Clippers will do well not to undermine their opposition in this encounter with Portland Trail Blazers having registered the three wins in a row recently, coming into today’s outing with 107-103 win over Chicago Bulls. The side have rejuvenated and revitalised, a team which is bound to make things nervy for the home side in this one.
