The Clippers are fighting an uphill battle. Without Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, there isn’t much they can do to keep pace with Portland. L.A. fought hard in Game 5, but didn’t have enough in the tank at the end and Portland pulled away. The Blazers know the importance of winning tonight, so they can avoid another road trip and they can start their series with the Warriors as quickly as possible. Look for Portland to roll tonight.
