Trends

  • Over is 4-0 in Warriors last 4 road games.

The Rub

  • Things are fractured in the Warriors camp, with KD and Draymond going at each other following a brain-fade by Draymond in the final seconds of the Clippers overtime loss. KD said to have mouthed “that’s why I’m out“, while Draymond continually mouthed “bitch” in reference to Durant. This dust up resulted in Draymond being suspended by the team for a game.
  • The public have jumped on the +2.5 line for the Warriors.
  • Rockets appear to be heading in the right direction back-to-back wins games and Carmelo reportedly on his way out. The curse is over.
  • Rockets averaged 112 points in wins over the Pacers and Nuggets after failing to reach the 100 pt mark in 4 straight games.
  • Rockets 29th in the league in pace. Unders for us in a scrap.

The Rub

  • Nuggets were hot over their first 10 games (9-1) but have cooled off considerably with losses in 4 straight.
  • Nuggets lead every statistical category in this matchup aside from bench points.
  • Nuggets rank in the top 10 in offense and defense, while the Hawks rank in the bottom 3rd.
  • Jokic suffered a hand injury in Tuesday’s loss and is questionable.
  • If Jokic suits up the Nuggets win comfortably, that line’s too much for us though on current form.

  • Over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings.
  • Over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings in LA.

Trends

  • Over is 7-1-1 in Spurs last 9 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
  • Over is 6-1 in Spurs last 7 games playing on 0 days rest.
  • Clippers are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 home games.
  • Over is 4-1 in Clippers last 5 home games

The Rub

  • Clippers have some swagger after winning 4 of their past 5, the last 2 in OT. Their last outing an OT win over the Warriors that ended in the KD-Draymond meltdown.
  • Spurs are going the other way after getting embarrassed 116-96 by the lowly Phoenix Suns to fall 0-2 on a 3-game road trip.
  • Spurs have gone over the 219.0 line only twice (1 in overtime) in their last 10 games, while the Clippers have gone over 219.0 in 9 out of 10. Pick a side…
  • These two rank in the top ten in offensively. With the Spurs playing on a B2B the Overs look good.

Best Bet  = LA Clippers -5.0 & Over 216.5
