Sixers Host Clippers, Brand Faces Former Team<\/h2>\n

The Los Angeles Clippers (2-9 SU, 2-9 ATS, 6-5 O\/U) snapped their three-game losing streak in the BetUS Sportsbook their last time out.\u00a0The Philadelphia 76ers (5-6 SU, 5-6 ATS, 4-7 O\/U) saw their modest three-game winning streak abruptly halted in their last contest.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tonight, both teams will be looking to pick up a victory for BetUS NBA sports betting backers when they square off at the Wachovia Center.<\/p>\n

The Clippers routed the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday, winning 108-88 to cover the spread as a 1-point road favorite in the BetUS Sportsbook.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles was led by center Chris Kaman who scored 25 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. Veteran shooting guard Cuttino Mobley added 23 points on 11-for-20 shooting from the field.<\/p>\n

The Sixers were beaten by the Minnesota Timberwolves 102-96 on Wednesday, failing to cover the spread as a 3.5-point road favorite.<\/p>\n

Veteran point guard Andre Miller led the team with 20 points of 8-for-13 shooting from the field.<\/p>\n

Power forward Elton Brand makes his first appearance against his former ballclub after shocking them by leaving to join the Sixers as a free agent this summer, signing a five-year deal worth nearly $80 million in the process.<\/p>\n

“We had a great relationship the whole time he was here,” Clippers head coach Mike Dunleavy said. “It’s surprising, some things you can’t figure out. I don’t know why he left. All the e-mails we exchanged were positive. All of a sudden, it just fell off a cliff.”<\/p>\n

Brand, who scored 19 points and grabbed 13 rebounds in the loss to Minnesota, said he never made any commitment to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

“My intention was to try and work something out with the Clippers,” he said.<\/p>\n

Analysis<\/strong>: The Los Angeles Clippers have been largely disappointing this season. But I just don\u2019t see them getting blown out in this matchup against an inconsistent Philadelphia team that is still trying to fin its new identity.<\/p>\n

Take the Clippers to cover the big spread.<\/p>\n
