The Los Angeles Clippers are rolling along, second in the NBA in scoring, winning three in a row and seven of nine. Since losing Blake Griffin, Chris Paul has averaged 21.2 points on 52.2% shooting with 12.6 assists to help guide Los Angeles to a 7-3 record. Paul had 26 points and 14 assists and the Clippers allowed one fourth-quarter field goal in Monday's 110-105 win at Minnesota. Los Angeles has limited teams to 37.5% shooting during a three-game winning streak. Portland has been shooting lights out from long range of late, but the Clippers are very strong at defending the three. The Trail Blazers have dropped eight of 10 on the road, a 2-5 ATS road run. Portland is off a win and cover but the Blazers are 1-8 ATS following a spread win. Chris Paul has regularly outperformed Damian Lillard in recent meetings, and the Clippers have gotten the better of the Blazers as well. Lay the points on the Clippers.
