Looking at the LA Clippers, they might be the only team in the Western Conference that can evenly matchup with the Lakers as they have a superstar duo of their own in Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. The Clippers, like the Lakers, also sit with a 5-2 record to start the season and even have a win under their belt against the Lakers.
One of the only things about the Clippers that is holding them back is their playoff performance. They have not been able to get past the second round of the playoffs for some time; however, with a new coaching staff, things might be different come playoffs.
As for the Denver Nuggets, they are the only other team in the Western Conference with odds to win the Western Conference under +1000. Led by up-and-coming stars in Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, they also have not made it beyond the second round of the playoffs.
The Lakers are certainly in the way of both the Clippers and Nuggets along with the rest of the teams in the Western Conference and bettors should not be mistaken here and take advantage of them by all means.
