As part of one of the matches of the regular NBA championship, the basketball players of LA Clippers and Golden State will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this match.
Los Angeles Clippers
The "Sailboats" have no choice but to perform with one brightly highlighted leader on the floor in the person of Paul George. Kawai Leonard will not appear on the floor soon, which means that there is hope for an age forward. The head coach is trying to squeeze a lot out of the current squad, but there are few questions for Lew. The Clippers cannot reach a new level, but given the problems of their rivals, fifth place in the Western Conference is considered a very solid result. In the last meeting, the team dealt with Detroit - 107:96.
Golden State Warriors
The Warriors had to endure two seasons in order to rebuild again and return to the previous level. Who would have thought that Stefan Curry would be able to pull the club on his own, and even the absence of Thompson on the general background does not look like a big loss, although this guy's long-range throws would have come to court now. "GS" has quietly climbed to the first place in the Western Conference, and is going from match to match, outplaying its opponents. In the last match, the Golden Ones won again. This time the victim was "Portland" (108:103).
Statistics and figures:
- Golden State is the favorite of the meeting;
- The hosts won 2 out of 5 meetings;
- The "Golden" have a 6-match winning streak;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended in favor of "GS" with a score of 115:113.
Forecast
Risk is a noble thing. Sometimes also grateful. The GS series, of course, is impressive, but it gives the impression that the team is trying to leave on a single Curry that does not age and floats on the parquet, as in the best years. It can't last long, and someday the scythe will find a stone. Let it be in today's match.
