Playoff Prediction

Despite the LA Clippers powering through the season series 3-1, it’s going to be a rough ride for the team. The Utah Jazz have great depth, and with the absence of Austin Rivers, the Clips are going to need Jamal Crawford to continue to step up.

I think Jamal is going to have a fine first round in this years playoffs. As he continues to get older, his chances at a chip get slimmer. He will be the guy to bring the bench together when the lead starts to slip. He’ll be that number that Doc Rivers calls when the Clippers need some immediate scoring.
