It is safe to say that the Los Angeles Clippers have a playoff spot all sewn up, but the team is finding a bad time of year to collapse. The Clippers are just 3-6 SU in their past nine games and an even worse 1-8 ATS in that span. The Clip Show will try and straighten themselves out when they host the inconsistent Denver Nuggets Sunday.
- The UNDER is 9-1 in the Clippers past 10 games at home.
- The Nuggets are 4-2 ATS in their past six games against the Clippers.
- Chris Paul has averaged 16 points and 10 assists against the Nuggets this season.
Nobody was going to confuse the Clippers for a great defensive team, but it has gone off the rails recently. LA has allowed an average of 108 points per game in their past nine outings while getting lit up by teams like the Memphis Grizzlies. The Clippers have screamed ‘stay away’ for bettors at the Staples Center, as the team has not covered at home since February 22.
The Nuggets enter Sunday’s clash with three wins in their past four outings, with the lone loss coming to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Denver, who has been middling offensively this season, has averaged 107 points in their past three victories.
