Result:
WIN

The Clippers scoring average has gone down quite a bit in their past few games, because of this, they have won just 1 of their last 4 games SU and have not covered the sports line in their past 6. They are averaging 90ppg in their past 5 games played and 97ppg in away games for the year. They have shot just over 21% from 3-point range in their last 5 games and that is simply pathetic.  This tells the other professional teams to watch E. Brand down low and force the Clippers to score another way. A team like Golden State, with some height, surely can do this. Golden State is averaging over 100ppg when playing at home and recently (past 5 games) scoring almost 104ppg. They have also gone 5-0 ATS in their past 5 games and this is surely because of the wonderful play from their guards (Fisher and Richardson). This will force the action down to Brand and put it all on his shoulders. As we know from past history, Brand doesn't play as well when he has such pressure. Look for the guard play to be the difference in this game and the edge is with Golden State. Take the home team getting points and chance to win straight up. Two stars on the Warriors.
