Over the last two games though, Brooklyn has scored 101 and 86 points, so they are trending in the wrong direction and Los Angeles prefers playing in the halfcourt offense. With five straight losses for the Nets, I’d lean toward the Clippers here, but I like the game Under more. I expect the Nets to score more than 67 points this time, but even 97 could be a stretch.”It’s Friday, March 28, and the Los Angeles Clippers (41-31) and Brooklyn Nets (23-50) are all set to square off from Barclays Center in Brooklyn.Listen to the Rotoworld Basketball Show for the latest fantasy player news, waiver claims, roster advice and more from our experts all season long.
