LA Clippers vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
The San Antonio Spurs have shown flashes here and there of being a sneaky, decent young team that can make a run toward a playoff spot. The Spurs are 3-7 SU and ATS in their last 10 games. The Spurs are also coming back from Paris and haven't played in four days, which can throw off the rhythm of a young team. The LA Clippers are as healthy as they've been all year, and they've covered seven of their last 10 games. The Clippers are also in a revenge spot after getting embarrassed by the Spurs on New Year's Eve, 122-86. We're not being asked to lay anything crazy. Give me the Clippers and the reasonable chalk.
