There is a real debate as to whether the Los Angeles Clippers should be No. 1 on the list. The Clippers won in a big way this offseason with landing arguably not one but the two best two-way players in the entire NBA in Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.
Both George and Leonard are coming off seasons where they placed in the MVP voting. The Clippers front office, headed by the great Jerry West, should be applauded for being able to land the biggest free agent on the market.
The Clippers now enter next season as one of the prohibited favorites for winning the NBA Championship. The Clippers also did a good job of maintaining the talent they already had in place like Montrezl Harrell, Lou Williams, Patrick Beverley, and Ivica Zubac.
