LA Clippers

Record Prediction: 55-27

Just based on rosters, other than the Warriors and Cavs, the Clippers have arguably the best one in the NBA. Considering that Chris Paul and Blake Griffin are both free agents after this season, this could be this team’s last crack at making a run in the Western Conference.

If not this year, it’s probably never happening. Problem is, at the end of this “run” they will likely have to face off against a potentially unbeatable Golden State Warriors team.

Expect the Clippers to have another potentially historic regular season and then hit their ceiling in the playoffs. Hopefully, this team will at least make the Western Conference Finals for the first time in team history, though.
