New Orleans continues to act as reserves, so you should not expect high performance from the team, especially since the Clippers are excellent defensively. In the last match, the sailboats did not allow the opponent to score even 100 points. We expect to see something similar now. Most likely, no more than 217 points will be scored in this confrontation.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 217.5 points in 1.85

It is likely that the Clippers will not smash New Orleans. They don't rush to attack and act very pragmatically. Considering this, we assume that the guests will keep a positive head start.
Prediction — New Orleans with a handicap (+20.5) points in 1.67
