Randy’s Free Pick
The Los Angeles Clippers are as healthy as they’ve been all season, and they’re playing their best ball now as well. The Brooklyn Nets are a shell of a team at the moment given Durant is out, Kyrie was just traded, there are other injuries and the guys the Nets get back aren’t going to be cleared in less than 24 hours. The Nets are extremely limited at the moment. Clippers should roll.
