5 Reasons Why Los Angeles Clippers Will Win 2014-15 NBA Title

The Los Angeles Clippers had a sea of turmoil surrounding them during last season's playoffs, but brighter days are ahead now that Donald Sterling is a thing of the past. Steve Ballmer will bring enthusiasm to the Clippers this year, and that, among many other reasons, is why they are my favorite to win the NBA title.

Chris Paul is always in the discussion for the league's best point guard, however, he does have to address his health concerns in this coming season. CP3 will prove he is the world's best PG while leading his team to their first NBA Finals appearance.

Blake Griffin has improved his jumper yet again. That should allow him to take pole position in the MVP discussion, and the Clippers will own the West as a result. Griffin will take a few more cheap shots next season, but he will eventually retaliate and earn the league's respect in the process.

The Clippers have had another season to learn from head coach Doc Rivers, and that will make a world of difference. DeAndre Jordan should be much improved defensively with another year under his belt.

The Clippers could have very well won the title last season were it not for Donald Sterling's untimely audio tape surfacing. We will never know, but this year could offer some support for that theory.

Kobe Bryant may not be pleased about it, however, it is now time for the Clippers to have a shot at winning it all. They are certainly due, and the personnel is in place to make it happen.
