Aside from the Clippers last win, Lou Williams has really played like a star player this season. Williams is averaging 23.1 points and 5.4 assists per game this year. If Williams can stay healthy, I don’t see anyone leaping the Clippers, and knocking them out of the playoffs. Their future is in their own hands.
With Williams being the number one scoring option for the Clippers this season, DeAndre Jordan has played well off of Lou. Jordan is averaging 12.2 points and 15.1 rebounds per game this season. His elevated play, and shot blocking ability have been huge for the Clippers this season.

On the defensive side of the ball, the Clippers are allowing 108 points per game this year. Ranking the Clippers 22nd in points allowed per game this season. If the Clippers continue to play poorly on the defensive end, Los Angeles will be an easy out in the playoffs.
Look for a big game from Jordan and Williams. Tobias Harris is going to be the wildcard in this one. He is averaging 19.8 points per game this year.
Oklahoma City Thunder
The Oklahoma City Thunder are looking like a legit contender coming down the stretch of the season. Oklahoma City is 4-1 over the last five games, and recently beat the Atlanta Hawks, 119-107. The Thunder shot 47.2 percent from the floor and 45.7 percent from three in the win.
Russell Westbrook dropped 32 points in the win against Atlanta. Carmelo Anthony added 21 and Paul George had an off game with 12 points in the win. The OKC big three has played well this season. Russell Westbrook is leading the team in points this season with 25.3 points per game this season.
