Oklahoma City tuned up for this showdown with a 131-116 win over the Sacramento Kings. Russell Westbrook had his ninth triple-double of the season, 20 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists. Oklahoma City is second in the NBA in scoring and eighth in field goal shooting defense. The Thunder are 5-1 ATS at the Los Angeles Clippers and won the last meeting in December, 100-99, as Westbrook had 33 points. The Clippers are playing well without star Blake Griffin, but this is one game they could use him. OKC is sixth in the NBA at the free throw line, while the Clippers are one of the worst from the charity stripe ranked #28 at 69%. The road team is 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings and the underdog is 7-1 ATS, so grab the talented and healthy dog and take Oklahoma City.
