The Clippers are in the midst of their best stretch of the season. They have won four games in a row, the last two by convincing margins, and get a chance to keep the momentum going against a significantly overmatched opponent.
When the Clippers faced off against Sacramento last week, the Kings were able to keep things competitive for a half before the Clippers completely wrecked them in the third quarter. That rout doesn’t feel like a fluke: LA has the best offensive rating in the league (per Cleaning the Glass), and Sacramento has the worst defensive rating.
