LA Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s LA Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The LA Clippers (44-27) take on the Philadelphia 76ers (39-33) Wednesday with tip-off from Wells Fargo Center set for 7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Clippers vs. 76ers odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: 76ers lead 1-0

The Clippers have been frequent buzzcut recipients of late as they dropped their 2nd straight Monday, falling to the visiting Indiana Pacers 133-116 as 6-point favorites. On the front end of that back-to-back, they were defeated by the Sixers 121-107 Sunday as 9-point home favorites. They have dropped 6 of their last 9 outings and are clinging to a half-game lead over the New Orleans Pelicans for the 4th spot in the West. F Paul George has been steady, however, averaging 24.1 PPG this month while averaging 22.5 on the season.

The Sixers dropped their back end of a back-to-back with a 108-96 loss as 7.5-point road underdogs at the Sacramento Kings Monday. G Tyrese Maxey had a game-high 29 points on 5-for-7 shooting from downtown, but he didn’t get much help. Maxey has 24+ points in 8 of his 10 games this month. Let’s give this kid his due in keeping the Sixers afloat in C Joel Embiid’s absence as they’re tied for 7th with the Miami Heat.

Clippers at 76ers and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 111, 76ers 103

Moneyline

So, as mentioned, the Sixers went to LA and punked the Clippers 121-107 as 9-point dogs just 3 days ago, and now they’re +200 at home?

Yeah, it’s a trap. As much as I love Maxey, they got 24 from starting F Tobias Harris and 23 from G Cameron Payne off the bench in that game. There are signs that the Clippers are coasting right now, but I can’t bring myself to the conclusion that F Kawhi Leonard and PG13 don’t turn the lights off on the Sixers.

That said, there’s no chance I’m paying -250 on the Clippers for it to happen. Instead, let’s SGP CLIPPERS ML + TYRESE MAXEY 20 POINTS + PAUL GEORGE 18 POINTS (+120) for a nice return.

Against the spread

I don’t like the idea of either side of the spread here.

Instead, Clippers G Russell Westbrook returned Monday after nearly missing a month with a hand injury. He had 14 points, 7 dimes and 4 boards. TAKE RUSSELL WESTBROOK OVER 15.5 POINTS + REBOUNDS + ASSISTS (-125).

Over/Under

The Sixers are 1-8-1 O/U over their last 10 games. The Clippers are 7-3 as they’ve eclipsed 100 points in 9 of 10. The Clippers have fallen short of 100 in 6 of 10. This went Over 216 Sunday because Philly scored 121, but I don’t see a repeat.

LEAN UNDER 215.5 (-115).

LA Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s LA Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The LA Clippers (19-14) visit The City of Brotherly Love to battle the Philadelphia 76ers (18-12) Friday. Tip from Wells Fargo Center is set for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Clippers vs. 76ers odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Clippers took down the Hornets 126-105 Wednesday, covering as 9-point home favorites. That pushed LA’s against-the-spread (ATS) record to 17-16. The Clippers have covered 6 of their last 7 games. Their calling card this season has been defensive, ranking top 5 in opponents’ points per game (107.5), opponents’ field goal percentage (45.1%), and opponents’ 3-point field goal percentage (33.7%).

The 76ers took down the Pistons 113-93 Wednesday, covering as 12-point home favorites. They held Detroit to just 15 points in the final period. That ATS win pushed Philly’s season-long ATS record to 18-12. The 76ers have covered 5 of their last 6 games. They rank 2nd in opponents’ points per game (107.4) and 1st in opponents’ 3-point field goal percentage (32.6%).

Clippers at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 112, Clippers 110

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (+135) have good value here, but I would rather take the 3.5 points on the spread than play them to win outright. One should certainly pass on the 76ers moneyline value (-155).

Against the spread

BET CLIPPERS +3.5 (-110).

The Clippers have been surging lately, winning 5 of their last 6 and covering in each win. The Clippers have also been impressive on the road, posting a 8-7 straight-up record as well as an 8-7 ATS record.

LA has the necessary pieces to limit C Joel Embiid and company. C Ivica Zubac has the size to give him issues in the paint, and the dynamic defensive duo of F Paul George and F Kawhi Leonard should wreak havoc for Philly’s offense, especially G James Harden.

A key difference between these 2 sides comes in rebounding with the Clippers ranking 7th in defensive rebounding rate and the 76ers’ 22nd. Considering that and that Los Angeles got the best of Philly at home last year, I would back the underdog here.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 216.5 (-105).

This is a low total, even for the 76ers, who play at the league’s 26th-fastest pace. Philly has had just 1 of its last 10 games finish with a lower total than this, and in their last 8, the Over has hit 5 times.

Philadelphia has scored 110 or more points in 6 of its last 7. The Clippers, on the other hand, rank 21st in pace and have gone Over the projected total in 5 of their last 9.

This will be tied for the 2nd-lowest total they have had in the last 10 games, 4 of which had a total Under 220. In those games, the Clippers were 3-1 O/U.

Combine it all, and at this total, back the OVER 216.5 (-105).
