Unfinished business against two unexpected opponents.........

The Los Angeles Clippers have unfinished business, against you know who, the Cleveland Cavaliers. This isn't the typical rivalry thought of by conference or division opponents. The last time these two teams meet was under the warm bright lights of the Staples Center. Now, they will venture to a completely different scenery as Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland Ohio awaits their arrival Thursday evening.


The Clippers have to make many changes if they plan to win this upcoming game against the Cavs. This is  a different Cavs team then they faced just a month ago. The Cavs are coming into this game on a complete high, winning their last 11 games and with a record of 30-20 on the season. The Clippers on the other hand are coming into this game with a record of 33-16. The Clippers have only allowed three of their past eight opponents to score over 100 points showing positive signs on the defense. On the contrary, the Cavaliers have not let any opponents since the win against the Clippers score over 100 points. Making this game more defensively driven then many thought. The key in this game is to get defensive stops for both teams. Yes, both teams have the capability to score against each other, we saw that in the teams initial meeting. Which ever team can play a balanced game will win. If the Clippers show up thursday will the Cavaliers 11 game winning streak be snapped..... I guess we will just have to see.
