10* TOTAL PLAY-BOOK (+$23,000 ALL SPORTS RUN CONT!)
(NBA) Phoenix vs. LA Clippers,
Total: 217.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
The set-up: Game 1 snuck "over" the number. Game 2 fell "under" the number in the Clippers 106-92 victory. I think this back and forth pattern continues as far as the total is concerned, as I expect this one to fly over as it comes down the stretch. Phoenix has to push the pace and get the Clippers playing from behind. The Suns can't afford to sit back and try to beat LA at its own game.

The pick: Also note that Phoenix has seen the total go "over" the number in eight of its last ten in trying to revenge a road loss against an opponent in which it was held to 95 points or less in. Expect this faster-paced Game 4 to produce a lot of points on the board.

This is a 10* TOTAL PLAY-BOOK on the OVER Suns/Clippers.
