How to make Rockets vs. Clippers picks

SportsLine’s model has simulated Clippers vs. Rockets 10,000 times and is going Over on the total (213.5 points). The model takes into account prior matchups, and each of the last five meetings between these two have eclipsed the total. It’s worth noting that all five of those had a higher O/U than 210.5, as the five averaged 233.4 combined points. Three of the last four Clippers road games have gone over, and with the team trading away All-Defensive member, Ivica Zubac, Los Angeles is nowhere near as stout defensively.

Two players are projected to top 20 points in scoring, while another eight players score more than 9 points. Given that, and the spread trends with these squads, SportsLine’s model has the total being eclipsed by double-digits. The model has the Over in 62% of simulations.

It also says one side of the spread hits well over 50% of the time. You can head to SportsLine to see the model’s NBA picks.
