The Cleveland Cavaliers are set to face the Los Angeles Clippers at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, and I've got my Clippers vs Cavs prediction ready for you.
This marks the second game of the season between these NBA rivals. Los Angeles secured a victory over Cleveland with a score of 132-119 just a couple weeks ago on March 18.
In LA's last game, they dominated Brooklyn with a 132-100 victory on Friday. The Clippers boast an impressive 8-2 straight-up record and 7-3 against the spread in their last ten games. The LA Clippers have also secured wins in their last four road games. They're playing great ball right now.
The Cavaliers hold a 5-5 straight-up record and a 3-7 record against the spread over their last ten games.
Cleveland's three-game winning streak was spoiled by Detroit, with the Pistons outscoring the Cavaliers 56-44 in the paint and securing 16 offensive rebounds. It's worth noting the Cavaliers have not covered the spread in their last six games at Rocket Arena.
The Clippers have been performing exceptionally well, functioning like a well-oiled machine, and they aim to maintain this momentum as they rank in the top 10 for both paint scoring and 3-point percentage. Additionally, the Clippers have successfully prevented opponents from dominating the offensive glass, a challenge that Cleveland has struggled with on both ends of the rebounding spectrum.
I expect the Clippers to keep this game competitive on the road.
The Clippers will be without Kawhi Leonard, but I'm confidently taking the points. The Cavs have been inconsistent lately, splitting their last 10 games and recently losing to the Pistons without Cade Cunningham. Although they've been profitable this season, the Cavs have failed to cover in seven of their last 10 games..
The Clippers are determined to steer clear of the play-in tournament, showcasing impressive form with an 8-2 straight-up (SU) record and a 7-3 against-the-spread (ATS) record in their last 10 games. They just beat the Cavaliers a few weeks ago, scoring 132 points, and the Cavs have seemed to struggle since. I have full confidence in the Clippers right now and I'm taking the 8 points.
