Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers Prediction
The Warriors have punted on regular season games over the last month due to injuries, and there’s no reason to get up for this one with them locked into the 10th seed. The Clippers are still playing for the eighth seed, so they’ll be out to win this. The Clippers probably blew that opportunity by losing to the Trail Blazers on Friday, but there’s still a chance. As I’ve said before, I have little interest in this Warriors team until they get guys back. Unfortunately for them, time is running out. Give me the Clippers and the chalk.
