Houston Rockets»
After losing a major star in the middle of the season, Houston can't regain its confidence. Houston fails in every game, even on its own court. At the same time, Houston's basketball is weak, especially on defense. Now the team gives out a long series of defeats, losing both at home and on the road, and in the last match on the road lost without a chance to the Lakers.
Los Angeles Clippers»
The Clippers have been quite successful this season, which has not been a sensation. The squad is really strong, and the coaches have great ambitions. Still, there are failures for the Clippers during the season, which does not allow them to climb to the top of the table. The team is currently in third place in the Western Conference. Recently, the team has almost never lost, with the exception of a failure in the game against New York ,and in the last match they managed to defeat Charlotte on the road.
