Norman Powell's absence is a major blow to the Los Angeles Clippers' offense as they face the Orlando Magic. With Powell sidelined due to a hamstring strain, the Clippers must adapt without their 23-point-per-game scorer. Meanwhile, James Harden's recent uptick in scoring efficiency offers a glimmer of hope, as he improves his shooting percentages and continues to contribute with 20 points, 9 assists, and 8 rebounds per game.

The Clippers' 15-game review reveals a mixed bag: a solid 6th in defensive rating but struggling at 21st offensively. The absence of Kawhi Leonard looms large, casting doubt on their championship aspirations. Host Darian Vaziri and guest Jeff Van Gundy discuss the defensive prowess instilled by Van Gundy, highlighting players like Kris Dunn and Derrick Jones Jr. as key contributors.

Will the Clippers maintain their defensive edge and overcome offensive challenges? Tune in with die hard LA Clippers fan and Host Darian Vaziri for an in-depth analysis and insider perspectives.
