Number one thing to watch is the leaders of the Clippers tonight in Chris Paul, Deandre Jordan and how they lead their team during the game.

Jordan is the leader in defense and provides energy on the court with his energetic blocks. It should be fun to watch to see how Jordan does with his free throws. He has worked on them all summer.

Chris Paul is the leader on offense, he makes plays for everyone including himself. Paul is more of a passer but like to drive to the basket off the dribble.

He can nail the open shots from anywhere on the court.

Tonight’s game should be entertaining to see how Jordan and Paul play together and with their team. Watch closely how these two play ball with each other and their team.

They are play-maker for Lob City and the leaders of the team.
