The Los Angeles Clippers look to get their 17th straight victory tonight as they host the Utah Jazz. This is the second time in three days the two teams have met, with Utah losing a close one at home 116-114. The Jazz had a 19-point third quarter lead, but saw it slip away as Chris Paul took over down the stretch. Can Utah get back to .500 tonight?
AccuScore doesn’t seem to think so. The simulations have the Clippers as heavy favorites, with a 86.5 percent chance of winning the game. The average score after 10,000 simulations is 104-92.

Keep in mind though, the Clippers won the first meeting between the two teams by just one point, and the last game by just two points. These two squads battle hard, and I’d probably take Utah and the 9.5 points if betting. The Clips definitely on the money line.
The over/under is too even to call, with there just being a 50.8 percent chance of the total going over 197. I...

Jarret Jack feels strongly about his improved development has nothing to do with playing with CP3 and his response was a little too bluntly stated if you ask me. If there was video of this statement, maybe the context would be interpreted differently.
Jarrett Jack has been incredible of late, and he was much better than “14 points, four assists” against the...

As the Clippers rallied from 19 down to keep what is now a 16-game win streak alive in Utah, Chris Paul was the man of the hour. Though Paul struggled with his jump shot (0-5 from three) throughout the second night of a back-to-back, his game-high 29 points included the Clippers’ final 7. As we have come to expect, Paul was brilliantly cold blooded down the stretch, knocking...
