The Clippers are coming into this game with a 29-14 record this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games as they have won their last 4 straight. This is the 2nd game of a road trip for them though and they have not been as good on the road this season. They are only 10-10 on the road this season and even in their recent games, they have lost 2 of their last 4 games on the road. They are in a bad spot here as well as they are traveling and have to play this game on a B2B as they were in Toronto on Friday night. They are going up against a Celtics team that is 35-10 this season which is the best record in the NBA right now. They recently dropped their 1st home game of the season but that has been their only recent loss and it was also against the defending NBA champions as they have won their last 3 straight as well as 6 of their last 7 games. They have been crushing teams recently as well as they have won their last 3 straight games on the road with all 3 of those wins coming by at least 9 points. The Celtics have the best team in the NBA right now and even though they have won 3 straight games, they are still going to be hungry to bounce back here at home since their last game there in front of the fans was that 2 point loss to the Nuggets. The Clippers are also in a bad spot here on the B2B while the Celtics have been at home rested, having last played Thursday night in Miami. The Celtics will cover the spread in this game.
