Why the Los Angeles Clippers will win

  • The Clippers have won each of their last eight games as favorites.

  • The Warriors have failed to cover the spread in each of their last six Friday games against teams that held a winning record.

Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers Prediction

The Golden State Warriors need to get their act together before I can back them with confidence. The Warriors have lost 7 of their last 10 games and have failed to cover 4 of their last 5 games. The Warriors are also coming off a heartbreaking loss on Christmas, and it could be tough to rebound from that effort, even for an experienced team. The LA Clippers have seen 10 of their 17 wins come at home, and they’ve won 5 straight games against the Warriors, which includes four straight covers. I’ll lay the reasonable number with the Clippers at home.

Randy Chambers's Pick: LA Clippers -3.5
