Clippers vs Raptors

The over/under line is set at 212 points for this game, but it still is low considering the way these 2 teams play. It is a rare event when they do not manage to score 100+ points. In 24 of 30 games played this season the Clippers have scored 100 or more points. The Raptors have gone triple digits in 24 of their 29 games. And guess what … its not only because of their hot shooting, but mainly because of the uptempo style both teams like to play.

The Raptors are the 2nd best offensive team in the league averaging 108.2 points per game. The Clippers are 4th with 106.5 points as an average. Both teams will come to play after having a rest, so fatigue, to slow the tempo down, is not a factor. In fact the Raptors last played 5 days ago. The Clippers will have their offensive strenght at the low post and the Raptors have good outside shooters that will offensively dominate the Clippers below the average perimeter defenders. Thus both teams are likely to find easy scoring options early in the shot clock.

We expect to see both teams going over 100 points with an ease. It will be a free-flowing, uptempo game where uncontested outsides shots will be taken, both teams will try to run and score in fast breaks and neither of the teams is good enough to defend. Take over 212.5 points @1.934 from with 3/5 units.
