New Orleans Pelicans - Los Angeles Clippers Next stop for tonight's betting night in New Orleans, the Pelicans will welcome the Clippers in one of the many must win games for Zion if they want to claim their place in the top ten and the play-in tournament.
The "pelicans" have created great expectations during the season, but it seems that they will not be able to justify them with the last month being a catalyst in falling below the top ten in the Western Region. Having fallen low in the percentage of victories, their hopes to enter the top ten are minimal, after all, based on image and results in the last 5 matches where they count 4 defeats, it has taken them down and it seems that they have realized it themselves. In the latter, they came close to victory but lost 110-108 to the Spurs, with Williamson and Ingram again starring but not enough.
The Clippers' machines have been idling for a while now, this does not stop them from winning and with 109-104 over the Rockets they successfully reached 4 consecutive victories and 9 in their ten most recent games. Leonard did not play against Houston, who will be missing today, along with Beverly and Ibaka, however, Reggie Jackson had 29 points the day before yesterday, showing that the considered pangs can also help. Theoretically, they are chasing the first place in the West and the home advantage with whatever this may mean in the playoffs, in any case they can not be indifferent in the next matches while against the Pelicans they will want to avenge their defeat by 20 points last time. met (1-1 overall in the season).
The Clippers are superior, even with the absences they have, they find the way easily or difficultly to get the victories and logically they will succeed tonight with their victory paying 1,83 at bet365.
