The Clippers have so many freaking scoring options, and run a legit offense to boot. The Thunder have ONLY Durant and Russell (who sometimes work as a detriment to each other) and to a lesser extent Jackson. Everybody else is a role player or a specialist.
The Clippers have CP3, Griffin, Crawford, Collison who can all create and I'd argue that Redick and Barnes are so great at what they do that they should be listed as well. Hell, Glenn Davis can actually create from a standstill if he's matched up against a fellow big.
LAC's options are virtually unlimited whereas OKC's offense is as bad as the Bulls with only Westbrook and Durant's freakish skills lifting them.
Clippers defense and coaching are superior to OKC's and they now have home court as well. Clippers in 5 or 6.
