Randy’s Pick
We're till feeling these two teams out, but if the Los Angeles Clippers are serious about being a contender in the west, these are games they should cruise. The San Antonio Spurs are still young, learning how to win, and they've been a bit of a mess defensively through two games. The Spurs needed overtime to beat the Rockets at home. This is the Spur's first road game of the season. Big line, but the Clippers are either serious or they're not. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now. Give me the Clippers.
