Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers

Playoffs are back and we are picking a very intertesting first round matchup between the Mavericks and Clippers. Both teams have great talent at both ends of the floor, with the Mav's being led by Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingus. The Clippers are favorites to make it to the championship in the west led by Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Landry Shamet, Montrezl Harrell, and Patrick Beverly are listed as questionable for game 1. Porzingis is listed as probable for Game 1 for the Mavericks and is likely to play in game 1. Harrell is expected to play though listed probable giving the Clippers back a solid rebounder and one of their most efficient scorers shooting at 58% on the year. Though the Mavericks are a deep team lead with talent, they haven't shown to be very threatening in the bubble and I think we are going to see a scary team show its true force in game 1 with or without Patrick Beverly on the court. Kawhi is a poised leader and I think they'll get the win and also cover the 6 point spread on this one.
