The Miami Heat need to pull off victories, and it looks like they will get help tonight against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue has just announced his team’s starting lineup for tonight’s game, and some famous names will be missing.
Tyronn Lue says Clippers will start tonight:
Lou Williams
Reggie Jackson
Terance Mann
Marcus Morris

The problem for the Heat is that the Clippers played well, even if they were short.
Even without its two main stars, LA last night outscored the Cleveland Cavaliers, 128-111.
At 20-8, the Clippers are legitimate championship candidates, although some of their key players have been in and out of the series.
The Heat are currently at 11-15 and are back in the playoffs in the Eastern Conference. Since all of the conference teams outside the top three are struggling a bit, Miami has an excellent opportunity to improve its seed.
