Running the offense

While there is a surplus of talent on the Clippers, the offense runs through Harden.

Through 44 games played on the team, Harden is averaging 17.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 8.6 assists per game on 45/42/87 shooting splits. He is impacting the game on both ends of the floor, averaging 2.1 stocks (steals+blocks) per game.

Harden has been one of the most dominant playmakers in the league for quite some time, he has now established himself with the Clippers and the team has been clicking.

 

Winning basketball

The most important part of this is the fact that the Clippers are winning games with ease.

The team has won 31 of its last 39 games played. They are currently the No. 3 seed and just half a game away from the Western Conference’s top seed.

This is without a doubt one of the most dangerous teams in the league. Los Angeles should be considered a true NBA championship contender in 2024.
