Prediction
Our expert pick:
Analysts of bookmakers consider the Clippers to be the undisputed favorite of the upcoming meeting. You can agree with them. In the current season Brooklyn outplayed the team from the Golden State away in a bitter struggle. The Nets, with a full-fledged starting lineup, are quite capable of repeating this success. But Simmons will miss the match. Also, the team recently left the star point guard Kyrie Irving, who moved to Dallas. He averaged 27.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. The Clippers will have to achieve a victory over a bloodless Brooklyn. Our prediction is for the Clippers to win with a (-5.5) handicap for 1.78. Brooklyn is averaging 116 points in home games, while the Clippers are 114 away. However, face-to-face meetings of teams, as a rule, are not very productive. In the last match, the mark of 210 points was not overcome. Everything goes to the fact that this time the basketball players will not be able to please the fans with a spectacular and attacking game. Moreover, the duel will be missed by several valuable basketball players. Our prediction is for the total under 218.5 points including overtime for 2.02.
