Reached the finish line of the regular season of the NBA. In one of the most unassuming signings of the day, the Oklahoma City vs. Los Angeles Clippers game is waiting for us again. The game will take place on May 17 at 04:00 Moscow time. Our portal has prepared for you its forecast for this game.
Oklahoma City Thunder»
"Thunder" can safely count this season as one of the most disastrous in history. The reason for this is ugly management and injuries to key players. Now the team is frankly failing, demonstrating a weak level of basketball, and gives out a prolonged series of defeats. The game does not look monolithic, and basketball players without motivation simply finish the season. In the last meeting, Oklahoma City lost to Utah without a chance at home.
Los Angeles Clippers»
The Clippers have been quite successful this season, which has not been a sensation. The squad is really strong, and the coaches have great ambitions. Still, there are failures for the Clippers during the season, which does not allow them to climb to the top of the table. The team is currently in third place in the Western Conference. Recently, the team has almost not lost, although in the last meeting they unexpectedly lost on the road to Houston.
Injuries and disqualifications:
- Injuries:
-
Oklahoma-Muscala (ankle injury), Gilges-Alexander (shoulder injury), Dort (knee injury).
Clippers - Coffey (illness).
Statistics and figures
- The last match between these teams ended in a 108: 100 victory for the Clippers.
- The Clippers have lost only twice in their last five games.
- Oklahoma City has a poor nine-game losing streak.
Forecast
The Clippers look like a clear favorite in this contest, especially given the difference in the class of the teams. The guests have a good selection of performers and now give out a good segment. The home team is much weaker, and the results of the "Oklahoma City" this season leave much to be desired. I think the Clippers should have no problems with winning.
