The process of being patient on a team that was supposed to win but is trying is undoubtedly complex, and this is what every LA Clippers fan is going through. They want to see success at home and on the road, yet with six losses in the books, Clippers insider Law Murray posted on X (formerly Twitter) that the back-to-back, November 28th and 29th, against the Memphis Grizzlies and Dallas Mavericks, is when the victories should start piling up.
Murray chose this set of games specifically because, by this time, over a month of the regular season will be completed, and a long Eastern Conference road trip will be over. This means a lot of adversity would have drifted through like a breeze, and the sun shining at the end of a storm would start to appear.

The exception is a Black Friday back-to-back

However, until Thanksgiving, the holiday centered on gratefulness, the Clippers will win some and lose some, and there will likely be no consistency in between.
Traveling as a team could help eliminate several issues on the court
Nine games in, the LA Clippers have not necessarily had a home stand, nor have they been on a team road trip. They have just been flying to and from Intuit Dome on a game-to-game basis, and here and there, they will play a few consecutive contests in LA, but no serious stretches yet.
However, the Clippers’ first real road trip will start on November 14th against the Dallas Mavericks and end at Crypto.com Arena against the Los Angeles Lakers on November 25th.
Within this time, the Clippers will have two back-to-backs, which are extremely tough on the road, as they require catching a plane immediately after the first game concludes, and they will face difficult matchups against two top-seven seeds, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Philadelphia 76ers.
Yet once the Clippers touch base back at Intuit Dome to play the Memphis Grizzlies, the rotation and coaching staff will have built a bond that could translate to the court. This could ultimately be the solution most did not know existed, addressing their chemistry, precision, and urgency on both sides of the ball.
Thus, Law Murray of ‘The Athletic’ has an accurate prediction in the air that has a high chance of coming true. If it occurs, Clipper Nation could finally see LA put the league on notice with a legitimate winning streak of five or more games that they have been yearning for.
