Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers: Analysis and Prediction – Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers will play an NBA game.
Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers Odds
Dallas Mavericks Team News
The Dallas Mavericks enter this game in a not so good mood, considering that they were previously defeated by the Toronto Raptors 127:116, in a game that once again proved that the team from Texas has defensive problems.
It was a duel in which the Dallas Mavericks started better. With a 16:0 series, after an eight-point deficit, they turned the tide of the match and established control. They scored very easily in the match’s early stages and would continue to do so until the end. However, the defense did not work at all. Darko Rajakovic’s team dominated from the low post and through Pascal Siakam did the most damage to the Dallas Mavericks. Siakam finished that game with 31 points, in one of the best games this season, so the fact that Luka Doncic scored 31 points and Kyrie Irving 22 did not help the Dallas Mavericks either.
After several excellent games at the start of the season, Doncic and the team played one worse game. The question is how much the Slovenian guard will be able to, together with Irving, continue to provide quality games. Not so much individually, but how useful it will be for the team. Everything depends on that.
Los Angeles Clippers Team News
Los Angeles Clippers played another weak game, since James Harden strengthened the team. One of the best guards in the league in the last 10 years has not looked like himself for a long time, and now it seems that he has transferred that mood to the new team.
After losing to the New York Knicks, the Los Angeles Clippers also lost to the Brooklyn Nets 100:93. The number of points scored speaks volumes for how much Tyronn Lue’s squad has struggled with offensive production. The poor shooting percentages of the team’s two best players – Kawhi Leonard (7/16), who scored 17 points, and Paul George (7/20, 2/10 for three), who was the most efficient with 24 points, speak of this. Harden did not push, he finished the game with 12 points, but also five turnovers. Russell Westbrook was also in the counter rhythm with 13 points and a 6/18 field goal.
Considering all of the above, it’s no surprise what the epilogue was like. This team still has a lot of work to do if they want to have a successful season, and it seems that it will be very demanding in the period ahead of them. First of all from the offensive aspect and the aspect of game organization.

Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers Prediction
Given that neither team is in a perfect situation, it is expected that this will be an uncertain match, in which both teams will try to find a way out of the mini-crisis. At the moment, it seems that the Dallas Mavericks are playing more organized, so our suggestion is that they will take advantage of the lack of play of the rivals and Harden and win.
