Prediction

Cavaliers 105, Clippers 104

Moneyline

PASS.

Cavaliers (-190) ML is a little expensive considering Cleveland is looking for its 5th consecutive road win this season vs. a team that has the 4th-best odds to win the NBA Finals. While Cleveland has been impressive on the road (4-1), they may be due for a let-down game.

Against the spread

BET CLIPPERS +4.5 (-112).

The Cavaliers are slightly overvalued in this spot as the Clippers should bounce back after blowing a 4th-quarter lead vs. the Jazz Sunday. Take the points with the Clippers who will be extra motivated to not lose back-to-back home games.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 213.5 (-110).

Cleveland is 2nd in defensive efficiency and Los Angeles is 4th. The Under has hit in back-to-back games for Cleveland and is 9-1 in Clippers games this season. Expect a low-scoring game that should be close late.

Cavaliers at Clippers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 108, Cavaliers 103

Money line

PASS on the money line. The Clippers’ first two losses were to playoff-hopeful teams and then they blew the doors off the Trail Blazers. The value just isn’t here.

The Cavs have won two in a row over playoff teams from last season, but they’re still not expected to be a team who plays at that level consistently. They also aren’t worth a money line bet consistently over an expected contender.

Against the spread

While betting the Cavs on the money line is not necessarily the smartest bet yet, consider the spread. They have covered the spread as underdogs each of their last two games, their defense has improved and they are getting balanced scoring. Matching up with George will be a problem, but they will be in the game.

The Clippers are 2-1 ATS this season and 1-1 ATS as a favorite but have not had a spread this large yet.

Take the CAVALIERS +7.5 (-102).

Over/Under

The Cavs’ last two games have had totals under 200. Two of the Clippers’ three games have gone Under the projected total.

Both teams had Over percentages under 50% last season.

Take UNDER 218.5 (-107).

Cavaliers at Clippers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Clippers 125, Cavaliers 109

Money line (ML)

The Cavs have lost six in a row and eight of nine. The Clippers have won two in a row and kick-off a homestand Sunday night. They are healthy except for the absence of George and they are the third-highest scoring team in the league, averaging 115.3 points per game.

Cleveland is missing key players and is playing bad basketball. That said, the money line is a waste of time at -650. PASS on the money line tonight. The Clips will win but there isn’t enough of a profit margin to wager. Go with the spread instead.

Against the spread (ATS)

The Cavs have failed to cover the spread in their last nine games. In their eight losses over the last nine games, they have lost by an average of 19.3 points per game.

They have been getting blown out consistently. One of those losses was 121-99 to the Clippers in Cleveland. Take this bet confidently. Go CLIPPERS -11.5 (-105). 

Over/Under (O/U)

Six of the Clippers’ last seven games have gone Over. So have Cleveland’s last three games. LA is 17-10 O/U this season. Expect them to score a lot and that will make it so the Cavs don’t have to do much to still hit the Over. Take OVER 220.5 (-110).
