L.A. Clippers vs. Brooklyn Nets Preview

[dfads params=’groups=63742&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]
This season the Nets are 8-15 at home and the Clippers are 13-8 on the road.
In their last games the Clippers beat the San Antonio Spurs 105-85 and the Nets lost to the Toronto Raptors 127-122 in OT.
The Clippers embarrassed the Nets a couple of weeks back winning by 39 points in La La Land and now in Brooklyn L.A. is a big road betting favorite.

No wonder since they have won 8 of their last 10 games and they face a Nets team that has lost 4 in a row and 8 of their last 10 games.
Since January 4th the Nets have the worst record in the NBA (2-12) and they have lost 7 straight home games.
Blake Griffin and Chris Paul combined for 51 points in the solid win over the Spurs and the Nets’ D has to keep this All Star duo from having big games. While the Nets defense has been mediocre, ranking 16th in the league, their offense only ranks 25th in the league in points per game.
The Nets’ defense will be facing a Clippers’ team that ranks 3rd in the league in scoring.
The Nets came close to ending their losing streak in the OT loss to the Raptors where Brook Lopez and Jarrett Jack each went for 35 points.
The Nets have been ice-cold from beyond the 3-point arc in their home losing streak with a 3-pt FG% of only 23.2%.
The Nets only shot 37.5% from the floor in their blowout loss to the Clippers in L.A. a couple of weeks back and Joe Johnson and Brook Lopez need to have good games.

It is also key playing solid inside D on Griffin, who was 11/14 for 24 points in the first meeting.

4* Cappers NBA Free Pick
I think the Clippers will win this game, but the home team has covered the spread in 20 of the last 26 game between these 2 teams. I look for that trend to continue, as the Nets will at least cover on their floor tonight.
