In this NBA game, I'll play Nuggets at a handicap of -5.5 against Clippers.
Clippers are currently in 5th place in the Western Conference with a 17-15 score and a 0.531 winning percentage. They are not in great form right now, losing 3 of their last 4 games, including away to Thunder and by 21 points to Jazz. At home they are in a similar position, after 20 games with a score of 12-8 they have a success rate of 0.600. At home they have 4 losses in their last 7 games, so we can't talk about great form either, last time they lost by 24 to Spurs, before that by 9 to Kings.
Nuggets are right behind Clippers in 6th place with a 15-16 score and a 0.484 success rate. They have 3 wins in their last 6 games, so their form is average, but they beat Wizards by 6 at home. In away games, Nuggets are not playing great overall, with a 7-10 score and a 0.412 success rate. But their form is definitely better, because they won 2 of their last 3 games and 3 of their last 5. They beat Hawks by 18 away, Spurs by 15 and Pelicans by 6.
Nuggets are pretty good away against Clippers, they've won 5 of their last 6 games here and always by at least 6 points:
2019/20 - 101:110 (+9), 105:111 (+6), 89:104 (+15)
2020/21 - 94:101 (+7), 104:110 (+6)
2021/22 - 103:102 (-1)
I also like the comparison of the last games of both teams against the same opponents:
Clippers - Spurs 92:116 (-24)
Spurs - Nuggets 112:127 (+15) and 123:111 (-12)
My bet:
Asian Handicap: Denver Nuggets -5.5 @ 2.17
