Los Angeles Clippers»
There were failures for the Clippers during the season, which left the team only in fourth place in the Western Conference. The end of the season failed the players of the "Clippers", having suffered several offensive defeats. All this was due to injuries to the leaders, who were able to recover by the playoff games. The Clippers started poorly in the playoffs, were confident and were able to pass Dallas in a hard fight. After that, the team lost the opening meetings to "Utah", but at home showed character and got the long-awaited victory.
"Utah Jazz»
The Jazzmen are confident in almost every game this season and show dominant basketball. "Utah" looks especially powerful on its own ground, where even the strongest teams in the league often have no chance. Without any problems, Utah beat Memphis in the first round of the playoffs, giving the opponent only one victory. The series of successful matches continued in the confrontation with the Clippers, where the team snatched two home wins and led in the series, but the team clearly failed on the road and lost with a big score.

Forecast
The clear favorite in this confrontation looks like "Utah", which has a more powerful selection of performers and is now in good shape.
