The Clippers are in town, which means this game will be much more intense than any game the Warriors have played this season. These two teams don’t like each other and it’s no secret. The rest of the NBA has taken notice and it’s easy to say that this match-up is the best rivalry in the league.
The Warriors are 3-0 and the Clippers have the same amount of wins, but with one loss. This game is important for the division standings, but pride is on the line. The winner of this game could easily ride the momentum moving forward. It’s likely these two teams will meet in the post-season and the Warriors must protect their home court.
With tip-off approaching, here’s the latest updates on David Lee and the Warriors:

Coach is playing things close to the vest and you can’t blame him. Have to keep the Clippers guessing. Coach Kerr understands the magnitude of this game, but playoffs are where rivalries are made.
Kerr says this matchup wasn’t a rivalry until the playoff series last year. Postseason is the key.

Looks like we are going to see the match-up we all want to see. The battle of two of the best point guards in the NBA. This should be fun.
Kerr: “Steph will see time against Chris tonight.”
