As the Clippers prepare to face the Nuggets, they enter the matchup with an overall record of 9-10, having secured victories in 2 of their last 3 games. Notably, their performance diverges between away and home games, with a 3-7 record on the road and a more favorable 6-3 record in home games.
The defensive prowess of the Los Angeles team stands out, ranking 5th in the NBA by allowing an average of 109.7 points per game. Opponents have encountered difficulty with the Clippers' defense, shooting at a rate of 52.4% for two-point field goals and 34.5% for three-point attempts throughout the season. In their recent game against the Warriors, the Clippers' defense demonstrated its strength by limiting the opponent to a 48.9% shooting accuracy. Despite this, the overall result saw them concede 112 points to Golden State.
This game holds special significance for the Clippers, marking an opportunity for revenge as they aim to overcome their previous 8 losses to the Nuggets. With the addition of new talents of James Harden and PJ Tucker to the team, I believe they will be able to sneak away with a win this time around.
Pick: Los Angeles Clippers +1 (-110)
🍀Best of luck!
