<h2>
Los Angeles Clippers at Brooklyn Nets Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>Los Angeles Clippers </b>
</p>
<p>
The Clippers step in on the heels of a three-game winning streak after they went 3-0 SU in their previous homestand against Milwaukee, Golden State, and most recently San Antonio. It is worth mentioning that against Golden State and Milwaukee overtime was required in both contests. All three games were also settled by five points or less. This is the first game on Los Angeles' East Coast road trip.
</p>
<p>
<b>Brooklyn Nets </b>
</p>
<p>
The Nets snapped a three-game losing streak on Friday night when they defeated the Washington Wizards on their own court by a score of 115-104 as a 6.5-point underdog. Previous to their three-game skid, the Nets had won three in a row illustrating their tendency to be a team of streaks.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons To Avoid Los Angeles<br />
</h2>
<p>
Lob City plays at a stellar level at home as they are 7-1 SU in Los Angeles. However, the Clips are just 2-4 SU on the road. When you combine this with the fact that Los Angeles is a journey over 2,500 miles across three time zones to play this game, jet-lag and travel fatigue can set this team up to perform sub-par in this contest. When this is coupled with the fact that the stock on this team is through the ceiling after its recent slew of wins against premium competition, takers are prone to an overlay with a team set up for a huge let-down.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons To Back Brooklyn<br />
</h2>
<p>
In addition to the variables as mentioned earlier, the Nets also give up less points per game on defense (Brooklyn edges Los Angeles 110.3 to 111.9) while committing fewer turnovers. This is instrumental in a game where sloppy mistakes on the Clips part can inject the Nets faithful into the game. Generally speaking, the Nets are known for playing a better brand of basketball on their own court. Giving Brooklyn more opportunities on its own court by virtue of silly mistakes will only give this team more chances for rising star point guard DeAngelo Russell to make plays, as he has averaged 22 points, 5.7 assists, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.7 steals in his last three games.

Los Angeles Clippers at Brooklyn Nets Prediction 11/17/2018

The Clippers will make the mistake of trying to coast through this game as it acclimates to Eastern Standard Time and recuperates from travel as they settle into their road trip. The Clips will overlook the Nets as an easier out compared to who they have played recently. However, the Nets will be plenty motivated as a win against Lob City gets them closer to .500 and illustrates that they are simply not the same Brooklyn team that has been getting torqued on a regular basis in years past. The Nets keep this one close.
