Brooklyn has now lost their last seven contests but they are proud to own three of their four wins this season at home.

Los Angeles Clippers at Brooklyn Nets Prediction
Someone has to win tonight and given the play of Brooklyn as of late, the popular opinion may be that the Clippers are going to come away with the win and end their minor skid. However, this may be a reaction to what we saw in Los Angeles earlier this season. The fact of the matter remains, Brooklyn will enter this contest with nothing to lose and likely play on the mindset that the Clips will roll them on their own court. However, the Nets have had other ideas at home this season as they have beaten teams like Indiana in Brooklyn. Given the reaction to LA’s record and their propensity for being overvalued there is likely some equity here in taking the Nets with the points. While it may be difficult to play on a team currently riding a horrendous skid, let us remind you here that road favorites in Money Line markets especially can be a dicey play when enormous juice is required. There is no such thing as free money in the NBA but to play it conservative we will simply lean on Brooklyn here with the points.
Free Pick:
Take the Brooklyn Nets +12.5
