LiontipsLakers vs Clippers. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Before the All-Star break Lakers were in a shaky form. Frank Vogel's men are still having problems with discipline, that's why they suffered defeats to Milwaukee (116:131), Portland (105:107) and Golden State (115:117).
But just before the break Lakers have recorded an unexpected victory over Utah (106:101). LeBron James tallied 33 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.
Despite all of their problems, Clippers are still at the 8th spot in the West. They surely hoped for a better result at the start of the season. But we shouldn't forget that Tyronn Lue's men are playing without their leader - Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.
Clippers managed to record a victory in the latest match. They clinched a home win over Houston (142:111). Marcus Morris was the MVP of the match, he scored 27 points.

Tip and bets
Clippers were pretty successful in recent head-to-head matches against the Lakers. Doc Rivers' men beat their local rivals twice in the current season. Lakers are unable to find a victory for six consecutive matches against the Clippers. Vogel's men are struggling now, so we offer to place a bet on the Clippers.
Our prediction - Clippers to win (Including OT)
All recent head-to-head matches were high-scoring and we are expecting the same result this time. In the latest match Clippers scored 142 points on Houston. We don't think that they will change the strategy this time.
Our second bet is on total over 217,5 points
