    One of the more interesting and growing rivalries in the NBA is the one between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers.

    Chris Paul – The Worst Flopper in the NBA

    Every time Chris Paul flops, it makes the NBA’s policy against the disease of cheating to draw fouls look even more ridiculous.

    Since taking the head coach job of the Los Angeles Clippers, Doc Rivers has been preaching defense, not flash.

    Los Angeles Clippers – Defense is Still a Huge Problem
