DOC NBA:
3-Unit Play #701 Take LA Clippers/Miami UNDER 197.5 (8 p.m. EST, Thursday)
Even though the Clippers thumped the Magic last night, we are still not convinced that this team is right offensively yet, and we are even more skeptical that they can do it twice in two nights on the road. Not to mention they are facing a pretty good defensive team in the Heat. Miami is No. 6 for points allowed this season. They also really like to slow down the game and among the bottom 4 teams in the league in pace. There is a good reason the under is 7-4 in their 11 games played so far. They will also be without Dwyane Wade, who has been ruled out this game, so that will hurt their offense. The Clippers offense is in the middle of the pack so far this season, and they should be much better than this, and the team belongs in the Top 3. They will probably get better as the season progresses, but right now they are not consistent, and we don't expect them to have a good night against this D on a back-to-back. And Miami has been mostly stronger on defense than offense, and we don't see them breaking out for a huge point total, either.
