    Utah +2 vs. Clip Joint?

    Clippers on fire, Jazz coming off an embarrassing home loss....

    Do we sell high and buy low?

    Is Mo Williams playing?

    Jazz don't lose alot of games at home, they certainly have a chance. But I think there are better games on the schedule tomorrow.

    Clippers starters got plenty of rest tonight. If no Mo Williams I think Clips take it. Don't see a high spread either

    As a Jazz fan we don't win against top 5 teams. SA was our Super Bowl.
    clippers actually have had past trouble here before this year and this line will feed anyone reading into that to take the dog.
    jazz have a better chance when they go back to LA then they will tommorow.

    I think the Clippers are in a bad spot. They might be able to beat the Jazz tomorrow but I doubt it. I think the Jazz laid down against Golden State just to be ready for the Clips. After tonight's performance, I expect a ton of money to be on the Clips. Potential public burial.

    even harder play than today TBH....

    jazz play well at home, have been in a funk lately...

    clippers on a streak, didn't even look bad tonight...or did boston just look that bad and allow clipshow to do their thing.

    does vegas see this trend in advance and set the -2 as bait for people to bite on the +2 jazz and bring it to a basic PK or -1?

    Last game the Clippers won by one point with Foye, Hayward and Mo Williams all on fire from the perimeter. Show me another game where that happened. I said last night I thought Clips - 9 was actually seeming like a low line and once again, - 3 right now is only - 3 because the game is in Utah. Still I do not think that matters right now. Time where the clippers might be "due" is passed. They will obviously lose, but I can assure you the thought of setting a record and gaining a huge advantage for homecourt in the playoffs is certainly on their minds.

    When OKC was on their 12 game streak, they beat Atl by 8 then played b2b vs Miny with a -3 spread, everyone and their mother was on OKC and look what happens, I feel this will happen here too, a let down game by a tired clippers.

    Utah is the sharps play.

    elaborate? Anyway I know 87% of public is on CLippers and the lines staying still, the record in these spots is terrible for the public, but this board is not much better (if at all) then the public anyway.

    Without Mo Williams, the Jazz will struggle against a deep Clippers team. Jamaal Tinsley has not played well since taking the starting PG spot. Utah will need to win the rebound battle by a significant margin to win.

    Sorry, i should have elaborated yeah.....I havent seen public money yet, is it 87%? Clippers match up well with most teams based on their roster build. Their bigs are big enough to bang. Their guards can shoot.... We've been looking for spots over the past three weeks for the clippers to get smoked and they just keep blowing people out. They aren't like the heat who are eyeing the end of the season, not games on the way there.

    as far as situation similarities, the schedules building up to those spots are vastly different for both teams. LAC's bench is the best in the show, OKC doesn't have near the bench that LAC does. Also, LAC is nasty as hell from downtown. They can take the paint but kill it from downtown....Utah has potential to minimize the paint presence of LAC but if they can hit from downtown utah stands no chance.

    I won't touch either side because right now I wont bet against LAC. Last time I went that public was Colts the other week against KC, before that I dont remember taking a huge public play. I may make a move but probbably not. It's a trap game to get money on it, but with 10 other games on the board tonight you'd be crazy to not just find value on another spot, personally.

    Coin,

    why do you insist on betting against the "hottest teams of the moment" in all sports?

    Is it for the I told ya so factor?

    Line open at 2, already up a point to 3 now. Minn-Okc were the opposite, majority of the public on Okc but line move down.

    this is normal line movement for this game. if mo williams thumb still hurts and doesnt play it should be around 4 or 4.5 by tip off.

    It will be close and I was sure Jazz could beat my Clips...but then Boston did everything to ruin that idea by allowing all Clips starters to basically have a night off. With no Mo I just don't trust those Jazz and will go with the Clips ML

    The Clippers will be on a B2B on the road at high altitude. Is this not a play worth considering?

    the starters got to sit back and enjoy the show last night, the two's put on a show!
    clippers ones will be ready to go in utah. so take away that "B2B" angle.. cali to utah isnt that bad.

    last two times these teams played in Utah Clippers won each one but by no more than 2 points. That was when the Jazz had Mo Williams though, I'm willing to bet CP3 doesn't get outplayed by Tinsley. I know this seems like a classic trap game much like Denver and the Lakers a few nights ago but unlike the Lakers the Clippers have the much deeper team to compete if they ever get down in a game and they've proven that they can play just as well on the road as they do at home. All The Jazz have shown me is that they are a very overrated team in the West recently losing to the Warriors at their own home and the they're really not that invincible when they have home court

    roll with the Clippers
