San Antonio at Los Angeles

Premium Pick

The Los Angeles Clippers are certainly the most positively changed team in the NBA this season, with the addition of Chris Paul. The Clippers are also getting a productive 15 points per game from Caron Butler, and a well-rounded five players are averaging double-digits. San Antonio is simply not quite where they were in the recent past, with an aging Tim Duncan who can no longer give them 40 minutes per night. They have maintained a very strong home court with just one loss, but are reduced to an average team on the road at just 8-8. They have played great of late winning nine straight times, but the last three have been road wins at New Jersey, Toronto, and Detroit, some of the weaker teams in the league. They have not been able to slow down the good teams on the road and as a road dog of +4.5 or less it has resulted in a 16-5 mark to the OVER, and overall they are 21-8 to the OVER as a road dog in their last 29. The Clippers have turned in a 15-7 mark to the OVER in their last 22 vs. a team over .600, so expect a lot of scoring here. The Clippers are home, have more balance and more answers. Play on the Clippers and the OVER.
