    Clippers-NOrl total
    been giving this game a hard look
    norl now -15 1/2, 184 1/2
    this projects a final score of 100-84 1/2

    clippers been putting up a few more points recently than projected with the shorthanded line-up they've been sending out
    norl has a good defense and clippers on b2b road games tho could lead to a big clippers no-show

    norl at home now and may come out real strong in the 1st and 3rd quarters and score big points in what the line says will be a 1-sided game

    maybe the clips get hot early and norl ups the pace and alot of points scored

    thinking the over looks good

    can anybody add any thoughts to this game?, scoring, games pace, fouls called, or other

    One doesn't expect a terrible no-show by this new Clippers line-up. Yes, NO have good defense but playing D is energy-sapping. When a team knows they can win by simply outscoring the opponents, not much emphasis is placed on defense. So we should expect a relatively free-scoring game in which NO posts about 105-110 points and LAC get at least 85. The Over looks very good. I also expect NO to cover but that's a no-play for me.

      agree with all that
      hoping the clips dont just put up 70something points
      always hesitant on norl to score big points
      after west and paul there's not much

        I took NO first qtr over 25.5 Usually coming off a bad loss a team plays well and the Hornets will be able to get any shot they want against a team that is only dressing 8 players and is very tired. I expect a lot of turnovers for the clipps will give the Hornets alot more possessions. I would take the over for the game but I dont trust the clipps to score 80 in this game.

            makes sense
            norl should get off fast tonite and get a big lead early knowing they're big favorites

              agree
              think the clips should get enuff to cover and make the total over
