Can the Clippers win the NBA championship this year?They started with a 6-21 record,dead last in the league.But over the past 17 games,they've gone 15-3, the best record in the league during that stretch.Kawhi Leonard, from December 20 onward, has averaged 32.1 points per game the league leader truly efficient plus two-way impact.Historically, no team has ever started in the bottom of the league after the first 20 games and then rallied all the way to the playoffs, let alone reached the Finals. But now the Clippers have climbed into the play-in tournament zone.If Kawhi and Harden stay healthy moving forward, and the team keeps up this recent form ,especially with the Warriors' Jimmy Butler out for the season due to injury, and the Suns' Devin Booker dealing with a sprained ankle that could drop their ranking, it's possible for the Clippers to push into the top 8.If the Clippers make the playoffs and ultimately win the Finals, it would make history.
