2 points? All they gotta do is hit a layup at some point during the game!!!!!!!!!!

should? is their crowd showing up yet like when they had baron davis that year? if it is, then 2 sounds about right.

if not, it should have been 4 or 5...

yeah...i mean im not jinxing or anything cause it is NBA but with Golden State's explosiveness, being at home, and the Clippers being pedestrian offensively....i dont see how it isnt a 110-92 blowout. Plus LAC played in Denver last night. i dont know it just seems fishy.

the Clippers have 0 shot to play in june. ZERO..spurs, thunder, Lakers, Warriors and possibly houston (at least push them to 7) and memphis could beat them in a 7 game series.

Because more than any other sport, NBA betting is for trolls.

I have been pretty successful at capping College Hoops this year, but the NBA is a fricking crapshoot every night. Last night after doing some research I decided to test a new theory in betting NBA. Pick out the worst looking lines out there and bet them all first half and full game.
I bet.
Hornets +2 vs. Hawks (Won 1H Lost game)
Nuggets -1 vs Clippers (Won 1H Won game)
Wizards +4 vs. Mavericks (Won 1H Lost game)

I went 4-2 on the day.
Not a great day but if you try reasoning with NBA lines you will end up pulling your hair out.

I assume you're trolling, but if you aren't the reason is that the Clippers have been playing great lately. One of the best teams in the league so far this season. And while the Warriors have a nice record, they've vastly outplayed their scoring differential. So they've be lucky in a few games, and their record is bound to regress sooner or later.

Yeah 17 win game streaks happen all the time. It's the NBA man. 17 in a row is impressive. Alot of parity in the NBA and anyone can beat anyone in 1 game. Example Bobcats just won in Chicago.

yeah it is impressive but doesnt change my perception of them at all. thunder or spurs could probably do that if they really cared about it.

Kind of like Bama didn't care and let A&M beat them.

No matter how you slice it statistically, the Clippers are a top five offensive team and the Warriors are not.

I am in no way saying there's anything wrong with your bet, but that comment is way, way off base.
