The Clippers are 16-6 on the year and 6-3 on the road. They have now won eight straight games and two straight to begin this four game road trip. They beat Charlotte on Thursday 100-94 as a -8 point favorite. The game went under 200 ½ points. Since an embarrassing home loss to New Orleans where the club allowed 105 points the Clippers have allowed 99 points or less to seven of their past eight opponents. Their profile on defense is beginning to look like a legitimate world title contender as the club allows 94 points and 43% shooting.

Milwaukee has won four straight games. The wins came against three bad teams and at Brooklyn without Brook Lopez in the lineup. The Bucks defeat Cleveland last night 90-86 as a -3 point road favorite. The game went under 196 ½ points. The Bucks two leader scores are guards who shoot poorly. Monta Ellis averages 19 points and makes 40% of his shots. Brandon Jennings shoots 39% from the floor and averages 17 points a game. This recipe will make you a mid-pack team and best and a first round knockout if the team makes the playoffs.
