LiontipsUtah vs Clippers. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Utah are crushing one opponent after another. After a defeat to New Orleans Quin Snyder's men are unbeaten. They won seven matches in a row. Among others they beat Boston (137:130) and Philadelphia (118:96).
After recent victories Jazzmen secured a 3rd spot in the Western Conference. They are two victories ahead of the 4th placed Memphis, so Utah's position is safe at least for a couple of matches.
Clippers can't count on Paul George now. But despite his absence, team bags one victory after another. In recent matches Clippers beat Orlando (106:104) and crushed the leader of the Western Conference, Phoenix (111:95).
Seems like Tyronn Lue's men are looking great even without Paul George. Reggie Jackson managed to put up a good performance. Marcus Morris, Terance Mann and Luke Kennard also did a great job.

Tip and bets
Clippers did well in recent matches, but in the match against Utah Paul George's absence will probably hit the team hard. Jazzmen are one of the best defensive teams in the league. They allowed only 105,8 points per game on average. We don't think that weakened squad of Clippers will be able to break the Jazzmen's defense. We think that we will see a low-scoring game from the Clippers.
Our prediction - Clippers: total under 103,5 points
Jazzmen won all of their most recent matches pretty easily, only Cleveland managed to put up a fight. Now Clippers are playing without Paul George, so we don't think that they will end Jazzmen's streak.
Our second bet - Handicap (-6,5) on Utah Jazz
