The L.A. Clippers sit in fifth place in the West, seven games back of first place Golden State. The Clips have won four straight, and their last home game was a 123-84 blowout win over the Nets. They should be in for another one-sided victory against the Denver Nuggets tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Home Cookin' - The Clippers are 19-7 at home for the season, and they've covered the spread in seven of their last nine home meetings with the Nuggets.


2. Blake Griffin - He dominated in his last game versus Denver, scoring 32 points and 12 rebounds.

3. X-Factor - The Nuggets are 0-4-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest.

Selection: This is a play on the LAC (10*)
