The only games Clippers will surely win are against the worst two teams in each conference. They are a perfect 8-0 vs. Hornets (14th, 2-0), Pistons (15th, 2-0), and Rockets (15th, 4-0 season series victory).

You might have noticed I left a team off that list. Spurs may be 14th, but they are a tricky team to decipher. Will they look to improve their tanking chances by giving the Clippers a freebie, or will they play spoiler and deny them a season series victory? Or will the Clippers do it to themselves, not realizing the intentions of Popovich? "Find out on the next Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!"

But this upcoming five game road trip will feature four teams seeded 13th or better, and their record against them is a mixed bag.

Clippers vs. 13th seeded teams are 2-1. The lone loss was to Magic. All the wins are over arch nemesis Lakers, but they're on the come up now. Expect a loss.

Clippers are 3-8 vs. bubble teams (seeds 7th through 10th in each conference). Hawks are a part of that bubble. Expect a loss.

for back to backs, why not prioritize the game you are more likely to win?

Kawhi and PG should have rested against Philly and played last night.

Fortunately, I think there are only 2 back to backs remaining

TNT and Adam Silver would've made a phone call to us if we did that

Who or what package would you all want back if Clippers trade Paul George ?

a dynamic Big ?
a young player with upside ?
what can he bring in ?

As many first-round picks as possible.
