Here's the summary:
I watched all three games between these teams in this season. DEFENSE DEFENSE DEFENSE. The atmosphere was like in play off. Defense at the highest level on both sides. Patrick Beverley rules in this aspect. I don't like him but I really appreciate his skills and character. Games very even and extremely fierce. I hope for the LA derby in the final of the conference. I think that who will win this series will become a champion. I support Lakers, but above all good basketball.
Clippers has a better defense and they can spread the floor as any player can score, unlike with the Lakers that we can predict who's gonna make points, it could be either Lebron James of Anthony Davis. With the Clippers, they have PG, Leonard, and their center Montrezl Harrell, and of course you can't discount the contribution of Lou Williams.
Theoretically yes, but remember that LBJ&AD can shoot 70-80 pts combine. Even against Clippers defense. They can also count on the range shooters like Danny Green, KCP or Avery Bradley if they have a their day. Personally, I think that both teams are very even, and the disposition of the day will decide about the victory. Or maybe the genius of someone from the four: LBJ, AD, PG, KL.
These two are good, no doubt about that but I always believe that a better team work will beat talented players. Let's look at Leonard's achievement also as until now, he is still underrated despite we saw him perform his very best in the playoffs and bring success to the team. Remember that when Leonard was still new in the NBA, Spurs beat Lebron's team and Leonard got his first NBA Finals MVP at the age of 21 years old I guess.
