The Los Angeles Clippers opened the season a dreadful 5-21 through their first 26 games. It is a team that could have really packed it in early, as they were headed nowhere. But they kept it together and have been rewarded by going 5-1 in their last six games, matching the win total in their first 26. They were playing poorly and lost to the Jazz here by 8, but now have a revenge motive and are playing up to the level where they can redeem it. The Jazz are having trouble as small chalk where they are 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 as a favorite of 4.5 or less. The Clippers are playing up vs. good teams at home where they are 12-4-1 ATS vs. teams with a winning road record in their last 17. I'm taking the Clippers to cover this game.
