Los Angeles<\/strong><\/p>\nIt doesn\u2019t feel right but there is hot and then there is the Clippers right now. \u00a0[ad-6571516] The other team from Los Angeles has won 13 games in a row, its just too bad that the Lakers still steal all of the headlines.<\/p>\n
The Clips have just 4 games left in the month and have a very good chance of achieving a perfect record, increasing their lead over the somewhat equally surprising Golden State Warriors in the Pacific Division.<\/p>\n
As compared to last year, the Clippers are getting much more balance. Griffin\u2019s and Paul\u2019s scoring are down but the overall lineup has much more depth with 9 players averaging at least 9ppg.<\/p>\n
New addition guard Jamal Crawford and forward Matt Barnes have fit in nicely but center DeAndre Jordan seems a little lost in the mix. \u00a0Against Denver they will probably go with a smaller quicker lineup though anyway.<\/p>\n
On their current run the Clippers have been cashing tickets too, 9-4 ATS over their last 13. \u00a0This team is in the top 9 offensively and defensively and the only thing to be worried is that they haven\u2019t shot it well this year.<\/p>\n
Or maybe that is a sign that they still have room to grow as a squad.<\/p>\n
Still not much to complain about.<\/p>\n
