The Gold Sheet

THE PLAY: Total Under 215.0 (-110)

This will be the first meeting of the season between same-city foes that no longer share the same arena. This will be the Lakers' first trip to the Intuit Dome. The Lakers won-and-covered three of the four meetings last year. Prior to last season, this was a series that was dominated by the Clippers. The Clippers have not played since Thursday, so they should be well-rested and ready for the start of this contest. The Lakers tried to sneak in a rest day for Anthony Davis against the lowly Nets, and it nearly backfired. The Lakers did escape with a one-point win over Brooklyn as a 9.5-point favorite, but it certainly wasn't pretty. We're going to go back to the same play that has brought us success through out the season. Look at the point totals from teams making their first trip to the Intuit Dome. Brooklyn scored 67 points on Wednesday. Miami scored 98 on Monday. Since December 1, only one team has hit the 110-point mark at the Intuit Dome (Houston on December 8). Golden State, Orlando, Sacramento and Philadelphia were all held below 100 points in their first trip to the new arena. The under is 10-3 in the Clippers' last 13 games. It's taking time for some of these teams to adjust to the new sight lines and surroundings of the new arena. Sunday should be no different.
