Los Angeles is trying to hold on to the No. 5 seed in the West. They got surprised in the last game, losing 113-108 to Orlando, but that ended a four-game winning streak. The Clippers are 11th in the league in points allowed and are 19-9 ATS after a non-conference tilt, plus 19-8 ATS on the road against teams with winning percentages between 40% to 49%. The Blazers are three out of the final play-in game with just 12 games to go. Portland is 26th in the NBA in field goal shooting allowed and in 3-point defense, plus 19th in points surrendered. Portland is 34-58 ATS as an underdog, including 10-21 ATS as a home dog. Los Angeles won the previous meeting at Portland, 118-112, and the Blazers are 14-25 ATS when revenging a home loss to an opponent. Play Los Angeles.
