  • Suns at Clippers preview and pick

    10.30pm ET
    Phoenix Suns @ LA Clippers

    In a match-up of the two worst teams in the Western Conference we'll go with the LA Clippers to win at home against the Phoenix Suns.

    The Clippers are just 12-14 overall this season but have performed well at Staples Center going 9-6. They will be disappointed at last night's effort when they allowed the Toronto Raptors to win their first Western Conference road game in 19 attempts. Prior to that loss they had won five straight at home beating the 76ers, Bucks, Hornets, Suns and Mavericks. The Clippers are 5-2 ATS this season against teams with a losing record.

    The Suns are the cellar dwellers of the Pacific at just 11-20 overall. They beat the 76ers 100-92 at home last night but they have been particularly bad on the road this season going just 2-12 SU and 5-9 ATS. In fact they have lost eight straight on the highway by an average of 10 points per game. Phoenix are missing the inside presence of Amare Stoudamire covering just three of the twelve games he has missed and despite winning last night they were still outscored 40-26 in the paint. The Suns are being out-rebounded by an average of 6 per game this season and that does not compare well with the Clippers +4 differential.

    The Clippers have won and covered both of the meetings between these teams this season.

    We'll lay the wood tonight with a solid home team against a poor road team.
