The Los Angeles Clippers and Dallas Mavericks will face off in one of the most exciting matchups of the first round of the NBA playoffs as two of the strongest duos in the league will try and take a step forward.
Kawhi Leonard and Paul George will obviously carry most of the load for the stacked Los Angeles Clippers, a team that has had some issues off the court with some of its players missing time due to personal reasons.
Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis, on the other hand, are well aware of the fact that they’re huge underdogs for this series, so they have nothign to lose and will try and silence their doubters with an upset here.
The Clippers went 5-3 since the restart of the season even despite the absence of Montrezl Harrell and Patrick Beverley’s nagging pains. The Mavericks, on the other hand, enter the playoffs with a 4-4 record in the bubble, including a 111-126 setback vs. the Clippers.
