Cavaliers vs Clippers Pickswise Expert Predictions
Cleveland faces a tough challenge on Tuesday as they head to the Intuit Dome to face off with the LA Clippers. I say tough because they’ve won only once in 8 road games against this team, plus in the last 13 meetings overall they are just 4-9 SU. The three-ball has cooled off a bit, over the last 5 games the best shooting team in the NBA has knocked down 10, 10 and 11 threes 3 times. Donovan Mitchell’s 9-for-28 effort from the field also didn’t help on Sunday vs Orlando, so it’s not really surprising the 16-game win streak came to an end. The Cavs do have another streak going on though – they’ve won 11 in a row on the road. Evan Mobley missed Sunday’s game, he is once again listed as day-to-day with a right foot contusion.
Along with their stellar record in head-to-head meetings, the Clippers will also be encouraged by their recent form going into this game. They’ve won 6 of 7 games, which means they’re just a game back from the 6th seed which would see them automatically qualify for the postseason and avoid the play-in tournament. In their most recent win, they blew out the Charlotte Hornets 123-88, only one starter logged more than 30 minutes in that game so they should be relatively fresh for this one. I’m looking at Ivica Zubac to have a solid game here, he is enjoying one of his best years playing alongside Harden. Jarrett Allen should be no match for him on the inside following a 17-point, 14-rebound and 8-assist game against the Hornets.
The Cavs have responded well after defeats this season, but I am slightly worried by their three-point shooting. The Clippers have held their last 3 opponents to just 28.2% efficiency from deep, if that holds up they’ll be in a good position here. Harden is also putting up 26.3 points and 9.7 assists on average of his last 10 games, looking like the Harden of old. I’ll give the Clippers the benefit of the doubt here and back them to cover.
