Lakers at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 113, Lakers 112

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (-160) should win their 11th straight in this series vs. the Lakers, but they’re being slightly overvalued on the moneyline. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET LAKERS +3.5 (-110).

The Lakers played uninspired at the Jazz last time out but should come out more motivated vs. the Clippers in an attempt to not lost their 11th straight against their in-city rival. The lack of rest shouldn’t affect the Lakers since they’re 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. The Lakers have been good at bouncing back after failing to meet expectations lately and are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games after failing to cover.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 231.5 (-105).

The Under is 5-1 in the Lakers’ last 6 games after allowing more than 125 points and 16-4-2 in their last 22 vs. teams with a winning record.

The Under has gone 12-5-2 in the last 19 meetings between these teams and should hit again Wednesday as the Lakers tighten up defensively after an uninspired performance at the Jazz Tuesday.

Clippers at Pelicans picks and predictions

Prediction

Pelicans 122, Clippers 113

Moneyline

The PELICANS (-145) are a solid play as moderate favorites. New Orleans has been red-hot lately, winning 6 of the past 7 games overall, including a 131-110 win last week in Los Angeles against the Clippers (+120) as a 5-point underdog.

Gordon could be sidelined, and L.A. would be missing his 12.7 PPG, 2.7 APG, 2.0 RPG and 37.4% shooting from the perimeter while F Paul George (knee) remains out.

Against the spread

The PELICANS -2.5 (-115) are 6-1 ATS in the past 7 games overall, while going 6-0 ATS in the past 6 games on a day of rest.

In addition to losing last week in L.A., the Clippers +2.5 (-105) have struggled mightily against the Pels. New Orleans is 22-6 ATS in the past 28 home meetings with Los Angeles, while going 40-17 ATS in the past 57 meetings overall.

Over/Under

OVER 223.5 (-110) is the play, as the Clippers have cashed the Over in 4 of the past 5 games overall. The Over is also 4-1 in the past 5 when working on no rest, too. On the road, the Clips have seen the total go high in 22 of the past 31 games overall.

While it has been about the Under lately for the Pelicans, they did drop 131 on the Clippers in a rare Over last Saturday in SoCal.

Los Angeles Clippers at Memphis Grizzlies odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Clippers at Memphis Grizzlies odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Clippers (40-36) visit the Memphis Grizzlies (48-27) Wednesday at FedEx Forum. Tip is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Clippers vs. Grizzlies odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Clippers have alternated wins and losses in the last 7 games since March 15. L.A. won last time out on its home court Monday against the Chicago Bulls, covering a 4.5-point spread in a 124-112 win as the Over (219.5) cashed. The Over is on a 3-0 run for the Clips.

The Grizzlies have won 7 in a row, including a 113-108 win over the visiting Orlando Magic Tuesday night at the Forum, although Memphis failed to cover the 6.5-point number as the Under (229) cashed.

Clippers at Grizzlies picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 120, Clippers 116

Moneyline

The Grizzlies (-190) are just a little too expensive for my liking for a singular bet, especially with Morant on the injury report. While coach Taylor Jenkins said Morant is expected to play in the 2nd half of the back-to-back after resting his injury against the lowly Magic on Tuesday, proceed with caution in this game.

PASS.

Against the spread

The CLIPPERS +4.5 (-105) are a decent play at almost even money catching a couple of buckets, although go lightly, with a half-unit play at best.

There is uncertainly with the Grizzlies -4.5 (-115), although reports state Morant should be available.

Still, the Clips are 9-4 ATS in the last 13 games on the road, and the Grizzlies are playing for a 2nd consecutive night. The Grizz could have some heavy legs.

Over/Under

The lean is to the OVER 234.5 (-110).

The Over has cashed in 5 straight meetings between these teams. The Over is also 21-8 in the last 29 road games for Los Angeles, while going 4-0 in the previoust 4 against teams with a winning overall record.

The Grizzlies have cashed the Over in 5 of the last 7 games overall, while going 5-1 in the last 6 after a non-cover. The Over is also 18-7-1 in the past 26 home games against teams with a winning road record.

Bulls at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Bulls 111, Clippers 105

Moneyline

The BULLS (+155) are a strong value, as Chicago is playing much better basketball lately. The Clippers (-180) are too expensive, especially since it has dropped 3 of the last 5 games overall, including all 3 times as a favorite.

Against the spread

The BULLS +3.5 (-105) are a solid play if you can’t bring yourself to playing the visitors outright.

However, the Clippers -3.5 (-115) are just not a good play, as L.A. has been erratic, scoring 108 or fewer points in 4 of the last 8 games.

Over/Under

Play the UNDER 220.5 (-108), and that might be the best play on the board.

The Under is 30-12 in the last 42 games at home for the Clips, while going 20-9 in the last 29 games overall for the Bulls. The Under is also 11-5 in the Bulls’ last 16 road games, while cashing in 4 of the last 5 games when playing on no rest, too.

Analyzing Saturday’s New Orleans Pelicans at Los Angeles Clippers odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The New Orleans Pelicans (36-37) visit the Los Angeles Clippers (39-35) Saturday at Crypto.com Arena. Tip is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Pelicans vs. Clippers odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Pelicans picked up a 115-96 win against the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday, covering as 9-point favorites as the Under (226) cashed. New Orleans has won and covered 3 games in a row and the Under has cashed in 4 4 straight, and 10 of the past 12 contests.

The Clippers blasted the Oklahoma City Thunder 127-105 as 4.5-point favorites Thursday as the Over (231) cashed. L.A. split a back-to-back set with OKC after suffering a 101-100 loss Tuesday.

These teams haven’t met since Oct. 30, a 112-91 victory by the Pelicans. New Orleans covered as a 1.5-point road underdog with the Under (226) hitting. These teams will meet again next Saturday in New Orleans in a 3rd and final regular-season battle.

Pelicans at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 112, Pelicans 109

Moneyline

The Clippers (-200) will cost you 2 times your potential return, and that’s a little more expensive than I like to play a single team on the moneyline. It’s too much risk with not enough reward.

PASS.

Against the spread

PELICANS +5.5 (-118) is the play in this potentially close game.

While the Pels are just 3-7 ATS in the past 10 games overall, and 5-15 ATS in the past 20 games against winning teams, there’s something about facing the Clippers that agrees with the guys from NOLA.

New Orleans is 39-17 ATS in the past 56 meetings in this series. Back the road team catching the points.

Over/Under

The lean is to the UNDER 224.5 (-110) based on the trends for both teams.

The Under is 13-3 in the past 16 games overall for the Pelicans and has cashed in 5 straight on the road. The Under is also 7-1 in their past 8 games when playing on a single day of rest.

The Under has cashed in 5 of the past 7 games overall for the Clips while going an impressive 30-11 in their past 41 at home.

The Under is 5-1 in the previous 6 meetings in this series, too.

Thunder at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 112, Thunder 103

Moneyline

The Thunder are 14-21 on the road this season but have won 3 of their last 4 road games, including Tuesday night. Their play all season would suggest backing them tonight mathematically doesn’t make sense.

The Clippers are 19-17 at home. But backing them on the moneyline isn’t the best value – so you are better off looking to the spread.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Thunder’s 8-2 stretch is the best all season. They are 20-12-3 ATS on the road.

The Clippers are only 16-20 ATS at home this season, but their last 13 wins have all been by at least 5 points.

Even without George and Powell in the lineup, don’t expect the Thunder to be able to win a 2nd-consecutive game on the Clippers’ home court.

BET CLIPPERS -4.5 (-112).

Over/Under

In 3 head-to-head meetings, the highest total has been 228 points. None of the other 2 even reached 210 points.

The Under is 5-1 in the Clippers’ last 6 games overall.

The Under is 4-2 in the Thunder’s last 6.

BET UNDER 232.5 (-110).

Warriors at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 123, Warriors 117

Moneyline

The Warriors are awful on the road. They are only 7-26 away from home and have lost 8 straight road games. Their 1st game at Los Angeles was a 134-124 loss on Valentine’s Day.

The Clippers are not great at home, going 18-15 there so far. But they are riding a 3-game winning streak, all at home.

I like the home team here, but because the spread is fairly short and the Warriors perform poorly on the road straight up and against the spread, go with the ATS bet for better value.

PASS.

Golden State is not much better on the road against the spread. They are only 8-23-1 ATS on the road this season. They Clippers are 15-18 ATS at home.

The Clippers’ last 22 wins have been by at least 5 points, the question is whether they will win the game. The trend is that if they win, they will cover Wednesday’s spread.

BET CLIPPERS -2.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The earlier matchup between the two teams in Los Angeles had 258 total points, but the 2 games at Golden State were 211 and 231 totals.

The Over is 3-0-1 in the Warriors’ last 4 games and 5-0-1 in their last 6 games following an ATS win. The Over is 5-1 in the Clippers’ last 6 games playing on at least 3 days’ rest.

BET OVER 237.5 (-115).

Raptors at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 118, Raptors 117

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (-140) need to start stringing together wins after dropping 5 of their last 6 games, but are being overvalued on the moneyline considering their poor play as of late. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET RAPTORS +2.5 (-110).

While the Raptors have struggled to win on the road, just 12-21 straight up on the season, Toronto has been profitable as an away underdog and is 12-9 ATS (57.1%). The Raptors are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing 100 or more points in their previous contest and should be motivated to play well vs. former Raptor F Kawhi Leonard who left in free agency after Toronto’s 2019 NBA Finals win.

The Clippers are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games and may struggle to match intensity with the Raptors, who blew a 6-point lead in the final 3 minutes vs. Denver last time out.

Over/Under

BET OVER 230.5 (-110).

The Over has hit in 6 of Los Angeles’ last 8 games and is 7-2 in the Clippers’ last 9 after a win.

The Over 4-1 in Toronto’s last 5 games after a loss and 4-1 in the Raptors’ last 5 vs. teams with a winning record. Look for Toronto’s offense to bounce back after scoring just 4 points in the final 3 minutes of its loss at Denver last time out.

Grizzlies at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 108, Grizzlies 102

Moneyline

AVOID. 

The Clippers (-270) should win this game with ease as the Grizzlies are without Morant, but this is a bad bet. I am not a fan of betting such a heavy favorite, and I would avoid placing a moneyline bet here.

Against the spread

LEAN GRIZZLIES +6.5 (+100). 

Both teams have been poor ATS as of late and on the season, but Memphis is the safer bet to cover. Memphis is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 road games, and LA is 1-6 in its last 7 playing on 1 day of rest. Memphis is also 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings between these teams, which is why it is the safer lean.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 227.5 (-110).

The Under is 10-1 in Memphis last 11 games following an ATS loss and 8-1 in their last 9 playing on 1 day of rest. The Under is also 12-3 in the Clippers’ last 15 home games vs. teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400.
