The most anticipated series of the first round of NBA Playoffs in 2024 is all set to commence when the Dallas Mavericks visit the Los Angeles Clippers at Crypto.com arena in LA. The anticipation around this series comes from the fact that it will be third time in five years both these teams will lock horns in the NBA Playoffs first round. 

The Los Angeles Clippers emerged victorious in both the previous two meetings and this year have a Big 4 of Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, James Harden and Russel Westbrook. On the other hand, the Dallas Mavericks are a much improved team as Luka Doncic will have help this time from co-star Kyrie Irving, PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford. 

The series is expected to produce fireworks and it will be intriguing to see who comes out on top in the end.
