Clippers have been a big disappointment
Basketball Betting Lines
12/26/2006 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Clippers are just 11-15 and are in the
cellar in the Pacific Division. Expectations are high for the Clippers after
they won 47 games during the 2005-06 campaign and advanced to
the conference semifinals.
The surprising Utah Jazz welcome the disappointing Clippers on Tuesday to
EnergySolutions Arena. It is the third meeting of the season between the
clubs. The Jazz won the two previous contests, winning at home and at the
Staples Center.
The Clippers have lost seven straight and 33 of their last 34 at Utah. The
Jazz have won three of the last four contests in this series.
Los Angeles is scheduled to host the Jazz on March 23, 2007 at the Staples
Center in the fourth and final contest of the campaign between the squads.
LA plays the finale of a three-game road trip against the Jazz. Tim Thomas
scored 21 points and grabbed six rebounds to lead the Clippers past the
Houston Rockets, 98-93, on Saturday at the Toyota Center.
Thomas was joined by five other Clippers with double figures in the win over
Houston, while Cuttino Mobley scored 18 points for LA, which snapped a six-
game losing streak. Elton Brand scored 16 points and grabbed seven boards, and
Chris Kaman netted 15 points and pulled down 11 boards.
The Clippers, who lost to Dallas in the opener of the current swing, are a
dismal 2-9 on the road this season. After Tuesday's contest, they return home
to host Boston, Sacramento and New York during a three-game homestand at the
Staples Center.
LA is 7-3 when it scores more than 100 points this season. The Clippers are
1-11 when their opponent reaches the century mark.
Brand has scored in double-digits in 16 straight games. He leads the team in
scoring (18.9 ppg) and rebounding (9.3 rpg). The Duke product has collected 12
double-doubles this season.
