Phoenix Suns vs LA Clippers Prediction
I understand the Clippers are talented and much better than what they showed in their season opener, but they still got blown out by the Jazz. I can’t follow that up and lay double-digit chalk. I don’t expect much from the Suns this season, but they took care of business in their season opener, and they’ve won 5 straight games against the Clippers, the last 2 times as an underdog. I wouldn’t be shocked at a bounce back performance from the Clippers, but I’m not laying this number after what we saw opening night. It’s the points or pass for me.
