| NBA Picks: Golden State Warriors vs. LA Clippers |
Don’t bet on the NBA without checking the latest betting options and basketball odds at the top rated sportsbook Bet Phoenix. Apart from the hiring of new coach Mark Jackson, it’s been a relatively quiet summer for the Warriors who are coming off one of their better regular seasons in a while. The Warriors won 36 games last season, which was a 10 game improvement from the season before. With the addition of David Lee, and the improvement of Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry, Golden State were a tough out at home, winning 26 of a possible 41 games. As always, the Warriors were among the highest scoring teams in the entire league, finishing the season seventh in points per game with 103.4. However, on the flip side, they were among the worst defensive teams in the league, as they allowed 105.7 points per game, which is something Jackson wants to change going forward. In other moves, the Warriors drafted Klay Thompson for some extra backcourt depth, while signing veteran Kwame Brown to back up the center position. Golden State briefly flirted with signing Tyson Chandler to a big contract, but that fell through. The Clippers were the big winners this offseason after winning out in the ‘Chris Paul Sweepstakes’. Although he didn’t come cheap as the Clippers shipped out Eric Gordon, Chris Kaman, Al-Farouq Aminu and an unprotected pick from Minnesota (which is likely going to be high) in exchange to the rights for one of the best points guards in the league. Paul will now team up with the high flying Blake Griffin as the Clippers immediately become one of the hottest tickets around. Los Angeles didn’t stop their however, as they signed Caron Butler to a three year deal to shore up the small forward position, while claiming veteran Chauncey Billups off waivers after he was let go by New York via the new amnesty rule. With Paul now at the helm for at least two seasons, the Clippers have two legitimate franchise players going forward. In fact, with all the off season troubles the Lakers are having, the Clippers could well become the number one team in town, sooner rather than later. The Warriors will look for the upset, but Chris Paul is out to prove that the Clippers should be taken seriously this year as contenders.
