The teams who share the Staples Center face off for their first match of the season. While both teams play out of the same facility this game is earmarked as a Lakers home game.
The Clippers enter having last played Wednesday in the defeat of the Kings. The Lakers enter on the second night of a back to back having lost at the buzzer in Sacramento.
Last season, the Clippers won three of the four meetings between the squads. The Lakers hold the all-time record having bested the Clippers in 146 of their 216 matches.
Los Angeles Clippers
In spite of holding a 27 point lead over Sacramento, the Clippers watched as the Kings went on a 19-0 fourth quarter run.
This was something Doc Rivers knew might be coming given the Kings had erased double-digit deficits in previous outings.

The difference on this night is the Clippers are a squad with equally talented players in the starting rotation and off the bench.
Tobias Harris is the Clippers most productive star, but reserve Lou Williams is just as talented and often serves as LA’s closer. Since the starters had sat for a long period Rivers went with his reserves to close out the game.

The Clippers held on for a 127-118 win with all starters and two reserves producing double-digit scoring efforts.
Jerome Robinson (right foot strain) and Mbah a Moute (sore left knee) are both expected to be out until early January.
Los Angeles Lakers
In the middle of the Lakers taking it to the reigning champion Warriors, the sentence “I felt a pop!” was all anyone was talking about instead of the Lakers win by a 26 point margin.
These were the words uttered by LeBron James who left the game with a groin strain. An MRI confirmed there weren’t any tears but the Lakers will exercise caution to not rush LeBron back.

How the Lakers youth respond will be telling especially since several of the veterans are nursing injuries. In their initial opportunity vs. Sacramento, LA held a healthy lead but lost on Bogdan Bogdanovic’s game-winning 3-pointer.
Tyson Chandler (back) is probable but JaVale McGee is questionable. Rajon Rondo (sprained finger) missed the Kings game and is questionable to return for this match.

In what is the NBA’s greatest oddity both these teams play at Staples so the usual foreign feel of a road match doesn’t exist.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Clippers take the undermanned Lakers.
