Point Spread: -2.50 | -105.00 LA Clippers (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the LA Clippers.
I think the home side will do just enough here to escape with the SU and subsequent ATS victory. LA would love nothing more than to kick the defending champs while they're down. The Spurs are just 2-3 and hardly resemble the squad that won the title last year, most recently losing 100-99 to New Orleans on Saturday. San Antonio simply can't score right now, it ranks in the NBA's bottom third in scoring, field-goal percentage, 3-point percentage and turnovers per game. Key injuries aren't helping matters as the team will once again be without the services of Tiago Splitter, Marco Belinelli and Patty Mills. The Clippers are 4-2, but have yet to cover the spread, they beat Portland 106-102 on Saturday, unable to cover on the closing line. This plays gets stronger when taking into account the revenge factor, San Antonio took two of three in last season's series, including the last two by double digits. Note that the Spurs are just 21-22 ATS the last two seasons following a divisional contest, while the Clippers are 43-32 ATS the last two years vs. teams with losing records. In my opinion, this line should be a little larger, all signs point to LA as the sharp move in this one.
