ASA NBA top play on 10* UNDER 220.5 LA Clippers vs. LA Lakers, 10 PM ET - If you are any kind of a basketball fan you shouldn’t need a history lesson on these two teams, so we’ll keep it short. These two Los Angeles rivals don’t like each other and will again be the two contenders to come out of the West. Both made significant changes in the offseason which included Clippers head coach Doc Rivers getting the boot. The Lakers lost several key assets in Rondo, Howard, McGee and Avery Bradley but brought in Schroder, Marc Gasol, Wes Matthews and Montrezl Harrell. As long as the Lakers have LeBron and AD though it doesn’t matter who else is on the roster. The Clippers had some turnover too and brought in Serge Ibaka, Luke Kennard and Nicolas Batum. The Clippers will go as far as Kawhi Leonard and Paul George can take them. Defense is the name of the game here as both teams finished the regular season in the top five in defensive efficiency ratings as the Clippers allowed 1.077-points per possession while the Lakers gave up 1.076PPP. The number set on this game by Vegas reflects what teams were scoring at the end of the regular season and the playoffs last season in the Bubble games. Shooting and scoring was up late in the season as the smaller confines and no crowds made for better shooting sightlines. In the four meetings between these two teams last year, they combined for total points of 204 (in Bubble), 215, 217 and 214, all of which stayed Under the total. Based on our math model we have 216 total points being scored in this one. BET UNDER.
