LA Clippers vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
We’ve been fading the Clippers pretty much all season, and there’s no reason to stop now. The Clippers have just 6 wins, they’re 3-9 SU on the road and 6-16 ATS. With a cover percentage of 27.2 percent, no team has burned a bigger hole in the pocket than the Clippers. Now there’s even more distractions with the way they handled Chris Paul. It’s a mess in Clipper Land right now. The Grizzlies have found ways to win here and there lately, and they just beat the Clippers on the road last week as 6.5-point dogs. I’m not in the business of backing the Clippers. Give me the bucket.
