After a disappointing first game to the NBA season that saw them lose against their same-city rivals, the Los Angeles Clippers in their last three games has been the dominating team that many experts have envisioned them to be. They were impressive in their last three games that featured other potential contenders from the western conference.
In their first win against the Golden State Warriors, they showed a much improved defense and a smoother offense. They forced the Warriors into tough shots, they rebounded and pressured well on defense that resulted to plenty of steals and fast break points. The offense also looked quite better as there was better ball movement that created good shot opportunities for the team. It also helped that Chris Paul had a monster game.
Against the Sacramento Kings, the Clippers had a very good offensive game wherein they hit 50 percent of their field goal attempts and their three-pointers. They were in control the entire game as the Kings never really looked dangerous in the game. Every time the Kings tried to make a run, the Clippers always had an answer.
In their most recent game against the also much-talked about Houston Rockets, the Clippers were dominating in every way possible. They negated Rocket's Dwight Howard's potential impact on the floor by getting the center into foul trouble early in the game. Without Howard on the floor, the Clippers were able to attack and score against the Rockets' interior. Couple that with some good 3-point shooting and the game became a one-sided affair all throughout.
