The Clippers on the other hand, are a bunch of flat-out quitters! The only guy on their team I really feel sorry for is veteran center Marcus Camby who is a warrior in every sense of the word.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it\u2019s me but I like the Thunder to hold their home-court advantage tonight while snapping their losing streak with a narrow victory.<\/p>\n<h2>NBA Free Picks: Thunder 94 Clippers 90<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Free pick and preview plus NBA betting odds and basketball lines for the matchup featuring the  L.A.
