The Clippers just traded for James Harden, the 'Battle for LA' went to a whole new level

Early in the morning, the NBA world was shaken by the news of the Philadelphia 76ers trading James Harden and PJ Tucker to the Los Angeles Clippers for Nicolas Batum, Marcus Morris, Robert Convgton, and KJ Martin, and draft picks, according to NBA insider Shams Charania's sources.

This move is what Harden has expected all summer as he was in a campaign against the 76ers president and for the third time he found his way out of an NBA franchise to land in another team without consequences.

The Clippers are now packed with talent as they already have Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Russell Westbrook. It is unknown if Harden and Tucker will be available to play this Wednesday night, but it will be an interesting new edition of the "Battle for LA."

The Lakers come from a win against the Orlando Magic and will be looking to get their first winning streak against their city rival that has just found new motivation with the superstar best known as "the beard."

LeBron James will be having more time in the last quarter than the rest of the game

The Los Angeles Lakers have been managing LeBron James playing time, as the star has been used more in the final quarters of all four games so far than in the rest of them. LeBron said the trend of playing fewer minutes in the first three quarters and more in the fourth will continue moving forward.
