NBA 2018-19: Teams of The Week - Week 23

#1 Los Angeles Clippers:

Los Angeles Clippers have been playing really well

The Los Angeles Clippers have been superb this season and have exceeded all expectations set upon them. They have won 44 games out of a possible 74 to date and find themselves in 5th in the Western Conference.

They have won nine of their last 10 games and are enjoying a five-game winning streak. Although their most recent games were not against top tier teams, they are looking to keep their spot and push higher if possible - with wins over the gritty Indiana Pacers (115-109), Cleveland Cavaliers (110-108) and New York Knicks (124-113) have seen them soar to the fifth spot in the West at present.

Naturally, the Clippers would like to keep their solid form going but face a tough game against the East's top side, the Milwaukee Bucks. That fixture will test their playoff credentials to their maximum, but given recent results, will be bullish about their chances of coming away with a tough win on the road.
