6. Los Angeles Clippers (12-6)
Last week: 11
The Los Angeles Clippers have to been the surprise of the season so far in the NBA, and in a great way. It’s refreshing to see a team like the Clippers be a factor in the Western Conference, especially considering that they’re doing it al without a star.
Tobias Harris is the team’s best player, and it’s fun to see this team flourish after losing Blake Griffin, Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan all in the course of one season.
The Clippers actually have better records than every team those other players are with. The job that Doc Rivers is doing with the Clippers shouldn’t be overlooked either. This is a coach that would probably be fired by now had the team kept Paul, Griffin and Jordan. Amazing.
