Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers Prediction
The LA Clippers are still undermanned, and they’re on the end of a back-to-back, which is the worst spot to be for a team missing key guys. The Golden State Warriors are rested, and they’re not only 10-2 SU, but they’re 9-3 ATS. The Clippers have won 6 of the last 8 games against the Warriors, but there’s been bad blood between these clubs for years and a bit of a rivalry. The Warriors are more consistent and have the rest advantage. I’ll lay the reasonable number with Golden State.
