Just a simple poll. Hoping for objectivity, not fandom. Assuming Clips and Lakers are both at full strength, who wins tomorrow's Christmas day game?

Toss up, imo.

If this was the team that recovered from the Dallas game, I would say a Lakers beatdown. They were going good on that 3 game road trip. I feel like the injuries to Kuzma, AD and Lebron have slowed them down. Clippers aren’t exactly surging but they also aren’t so dependent on just 2 stars.

Maybe Lakers with a close, grind out W.

W or L, I think the flaws are going to be apparent again. Mainly the no playmakers behind Lebron as the Clippers tire out Lebron and not enough wing defense to neutralize PG AND Kawhi. I think we are better equipped to handle Lou/Harrell with guards taking turns and Dwight but we will see.

Let's just say I'd be very impressed if the Lakers win this one after losing the last 3 as badly as they did.

We lost at Indiana and Milwaukee by 10 total and were without Davis and Lebron for a game each. Should it really surprise you that much to win this game?

I say the Lakers are losing, but I reserve the right to squeal like a little girl should they pull off a win.

Lol we are 24-6 with 2 of the last 3 loses coming without LeBron and AD and fans are already treating this team like they aren’t a contender.

The Clippers have lost 3 out of their last 5. If you were a Clipper fan you would be predicting a Laker win.

Now for some better stats:

The Clippers are 11-3 when both Kawhi & PG play while the Lakers are 23-4 when both AD & LeBron play.

Being as objective as possible, I’d say lakers win in a tough game. Lebron and AD will not allow the team to lose their 4th straight. Their going to go all out.

I think the Lakers have a good chance because they will have a full roster (I hear Lebron will play, Ad questionable but likely I think). That includes Kuzma he seems fully healthy now. Caruso, healthy Kuzma, Lebron, AD. Not to mention the Lakers actually got a practice in today something they haven’t had In a while because of all the road games. Few teams have had to deal with those guys And a prepared Lakers team. The clippers will be the first unlucky team to see the true potential of the Lakers come to fruition.

And although its Staples center majority of fans will be Lakers.

I didn’t even bother voting figuring everyone but VLF would vote Lakers.

Forget the "it's only December" nonsense.

Lakers can, should, and will win this game.

We’ve been struggling against top tier teams so far and this one seems like a Clippers win because of recent injuries to LeBron and AD. Even if they both play, what versions are we going to see? If LeBron plays like he did vs the Bucks we’re screwed

I would not say struggling. I would say we're a .500 team against the better teams in the NBA. Wins against Miami, Denver, Dallas, Utah. Losses against Clips, Milwaukee, Dallas, Toronto. Won't count the game against Denver or Indiana as they were without AD/Lebron.

Right now we're playing like a team that will sweep an 7th/8th seed team. But likely go 6-7 games with the SF/CF type of team. We need get better, no doubt.
