The Los Angeles Clippers rule Kawhi Leonard out, with James Harden's injury status uncertain ahead of their matchup vs. the Boston Celtics.

For the past few seasons, the LA Clippers and Boston Celtics have produced some of the most fun matchups in the NBA. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case so much

Boston will need to be vigilant that old habits vs. banged-up and lesser ball clubs don't make a winnable game into a struggle -- or worse, a loss.

Boston’s starting five is finding cohesion, and its defense stifled Golden State. The Celtics’ ability to stay consistent will be tested against the Clippers, who sit fifth in the Western Conference standings and sport a 15-7 record at the Intuit Dome.
