Clippers-Thunder: Depleted L.A. Squad Faces Confident Oklahoma City Team
The Thunder are looking for another two-game win streak.
It could happen tonight.
Here are two reasons why:
The Clippers' Injury Troubles
The starting lineup is out. I knew that the Clippers had a few injuries, but I didn't realize it was this bad. Check out this lineup:
Center - DeAndre Jordan
This guy had 23 points versus the Lakers on Wednesday night. Before that, he averaged 11.9 minutes per game.
SG - Eric Gordon
Gordon averages 31.3 minutes per game. He can score well but his rebounding and assists could use a little help.
SF - Al Thornton
Al averages 16.9 points per game but also averages near four fouls per game.
PF - Brian Skinner
Skinner averages 15 minutes per game and 3.3 points per game.
PG - Mardy Collins
Collins averages 15 minutes and six points per game.
All above facts were taken from NBA.com.
The Thunder's Confidence
The Thunder are coming off a huge win at Golden State on Wednesday. Jeff Green banked in a 16 footer at the buzzer to win the game by one.
Any time a team wins on the road by a single point on a last minute shot should be feeling good about themselves. With a win tonight, the Thunder can go home after a two-game stretch on the road with even more confidence that can be used at home.
Opportunity is knocking for the Thunder. They just have to answer.
