Clippers vs Spurs
Bonus Play UNDER
I'm recommending a play on the Under between the Clippers & Spurs on Tuesday night. The teams split their two meetings this season with the Spurs winning by eight points at home in December and the Clippers crushing San Antonio by 19 points in February. The first meeting saw the teams fly over a posted total of 195.5, scoring a combined, 222 points. The last meeting saw a posted total of 206 in Los Angeles and the game stayed well below the total (76 point first half) in a 105-86 Clipper win. Tonight's total falls in-between the first two meetings, but despite a much different circumstance leading up to game time, I expect a second straight lower scoring game. The Spurs obviously have the defenders to slow Chris Paul, while keeping an eye on J.J. Reddick. They've been slowing down everyone of late, (8-2 Under run), holding nine of their last 10 opponents below 100 points. Four of those opponents failed to reach 87 points, including the NBA's second highest scoring team, OKC, who scored just 85 points in an 8-point loss to the Spurs on March 12. And while the Spurs are #1 in the league in ppg allowed, FG percentage allowed, and 3-point defense, the Clippers are 4th in defensive FG percentage and have seen 17 of their last 23 games finish Under the total. I expect an intense battle at AT&T Center and I'm recommending a play on the Under between the Clippers & Spurs on Tuesday night. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
