A new season means battling another quest to the playoffs and beyond for the Los Angeles Clippers season opener.

Everyone was healthy until the preseason started; now the question is who will step up as a reserve power forward?

LA plays the Portland Trail blazers, who eliminated the injured Clippers from the playoffs.

Tonight, both teams healthy face off in a rematch.

Here are 5 things for fans to watch in the Clippers season opener against Portland tonight.
