This is a 10* TOTAL BOOKIEKILLER on the UNDER Clippers/Hawks.

I'm expecting a slower-paced here between these two non-conference opponents. Each team needs a victory, and I believe we'll see a very tight, lower-scoring affair, rather than a "run and gun" shootout.

The Clippers are coming off four straight SU victories and they've seen the total go OVER in two in a row. Despite that though LA still only averages 110.7 PPG, ranked 28th.

The Hawks beat the Clippers 112-108 at home at the start of January, and that total stayed UNDER the number of 233. I'm expecting a similar final combined score here as well.

ATL has seen the total go OVER in four of its last five, including in a 137-132 win at the Thunder last time out.

I think tonight's total is now a little TOO high though.

The play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
