    So this game is on national TV for those without CSN. This usually means the first game will go into triple OT.

    bwahahahaha... funny - in a sad way - because its true.
    Clippers should take care of Nets... but its at Nets, the Clippers haven't been playing great.

    I think I'm more excited about this game than any game this season thus far for some reason.

    With the way Nets play, I am confident that a half baked clippers will able to finished them without any problem.

    Blazers have a very potent offense, but their defense is atrocious. That's the reason I doubt that team. They are the 20th best defensive team in the league. Wesley Matthews is shooting lights out at an unsustainable rate. OJ Mayo who lot's of people were hyping up last year was like this, but came back down to Earth. Nicolas Batum is also shooting the best out of his career. It isn't a huge jump like Matthews, so it maybe a sustainable number because of :

    A. Player Development
    B. Double teams on LMA

    Their offense should cool down a bit, but it will still be deadly. They aren't contenders

    The only contenders in this conference (Spurs, OKC, Rockets, Clippers, Warriors) all have great defenses and offenses. All of those teams are top 10 in both (Except Warriors who are hovering around 12th)

    Its never been that way in the past..

    Back when I still had the channel the Rockets play on, when it was on TNT or ABC it was never shown on local tv. The games on ESPN/NBAtv will still be simulcast on local, but not TNT or ABC ones.

    As long as it doesn't end up as a 2/3 possession game late in the 4th, this should be a comfortable win.

    Nets are playing better, Clippers might not be as good as they should be. what are the odds this game goes into overtime with the Rockets the late game? 98%.
