Los Angeles Clippers at Los Angeles Lakers Week 1 Prediction
The absence of a player from a line-up can generate a lot of press and stir reactions. We saw this with the Boston Celtics losing forward Gordon Hayward to a heinous injury last night and the follow-up today as the Celts host the Bucks. The same holds true with Chris Paul leaving town. The Clippers seem more beatable to the naked eye and the Lakers seem to have a tremendous amount of upside given the fact that sky is the limit for the young team. Nevertheless, the Clippers have plenty of weapons despite CP3 moving onto Houston. Most notably, Blakey “The Kid” Griffin. Griffin is back to full health and him and DeAndre Jordan can bully virtually anyone in the front court. There is a reason the Clippers are nick-named Lob City. The Lakers will be reminded why.
Free Pick:
Take Los Angeles Clippers -5
