Earl's NBA power ranking · Week 25, 2025

The Clippers sit at 13th with a +1.864 neutral-field rating, meaning they'd be roughly 2-point favorites against an average team, but that number has cratered 0.927 points in a week and sits a massive 6.5 points below their 8.401 prior-season rating. That gap screams regression from last year's form, and with a soft -0.289 strength of schedule and a 42-40 record, this is a sell-high candidate if the market is still pricing them anywhere near their 2024-25 reputation. Their 0.73 mark vs the market suggests they've been slightly undervalued by oddsmakers, so the buy/sell call hinges on whether that -0.927 weekly drop is a blip or the start of a real slide.
