The Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers are involved in a battle for the second seed in the Western Conference and I expect a playoff-like and low-scoring affair when they clash at Staples Center Friday night. Additionally, both teams are more than capable of playing lockdown defense. The Clippers have allowed an average of just 94.5 ppg over their last two games while Denver held Detroit to 98 points last time out.

Under is 4-1 in Clippers last 5 games as a home favorite and 7-1 in Nuggets last 8 games as a road underdog.

10* play on UNDER.
