    Clipps vs Suns Thoughts

    Anyone have any insight on this game. Public is really pounding the Clippers here.

    Kind of want to take the Suns, but their lack of bench production really worries me at times. They have gotten some pieces back like Hakeem Warrick and Robin Lopez, but they still don't have a back up PG who can let Nash rest 15 min per game.

    On the other hand, Clipps have been fairly decent on b2b's. Should be a good matchup between two of the NBA's best PG's.

    Leaning Suns +3. They are really playing good basketball as of late.

    Have you watched PHX this past month, they have been very good. You could make a case that in the past month PHX has been just as good as the Clippshow.

    Line seems pretty sharp, probably one of those games that I should just leave alone.

    Games played at PHOENIX over the last 3 seasons.
    PHOENIX is 3-1 against the spread versus LA CLIPPERS over the last 3 seasons
    PHOENIX is 4-0 straight up against LA CLIPPERS over the last 3 seasons
    3 of 4 games in this series have gone OVER THE TOTAL over the last 3 seasons

    I was thinking the same thing about nash on the bench, if they don't score i know LAC will.. doesn't matter who wins.. there's always room for an Over.

    I love backing PHX, but I do agree with you. When Nash comes out, they really struggle. They miss Aaron Brooks badly. On a good note, other than Mo Williams, The Clipps struggle to score as well with their 2nd unit.

    It's really up to Mo Williams and Clippers bench IMO. Paul and Griffin will get their but they need the bench to step up to win the game.

    Those stats are pretty irrelevant. Clipps are a totally different team now with CP3. That would be like comparing the Cavs stats from previous seasons the year after LeBron left.

    Not sure how relevant past season results are in this spot since the Clippers are leaps and bounds better this year w CP3

    i've been capitalising on this all season. Teams with great records like suns over clips are overvalued even though its a complete new team. However for this I'm really not sure...I've been following both teams, and suns are playing great.

    PHX 1Q is probably a solid bet. They seem to always start out games quickly.

    I'm going with the 1H over 99. The Clippers are one of the few teams the Suns were able to beat without Nash. They always seems to be able to put up a bunch of points against the Clippers. However, I think with Chris Paul, the Clippers may be able to take this one.

    I think public may win this one. Going to just lay off here. Plenty of games this weekend to play. Good luck to anyone playing this game.

    It doesn't get much better than watching Steve Nash and CP3. Two best pure passers in the NBA IMO. Rondo would be my third.

    thinking of taking 2H over... Suns can't shoot this poorly at home for a full game vs the Clips non-existent defense, can they

    or next time there is a live line for full game over/under, take the over... last time it was at 178.5. both teams can get to 180 easy.

    Grant Hill 1/5 on free throws. Channing Frye 1/12 shooting (only make was a dunk). Blake Griffin can't hit a shot unless it's a dunk.
