Odds are available as of April 24th, 2025. Odds may now differ.
The Nuggets will likely be frustrated that they didnāt manage to secure both of their home games. Still, I believe theyāll cover the spread in this one. The underdogs have covered in eight of the Nuggetsā last nine Western Conference First Round games. Meanwhile, the Clippers have failed to cover the spread in each of their previous four First Round home games as favorites against teams from the Northwest Division. Moreover, the underdogs have covered in eight of the last ten meetings between the Nuggets and Clippers. So I expect the underdog to cover again.

Denver Nuggets +5.50 (AH)
LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets played two matches in this 1/8 final playoff series. Both teams won one game. First Denver won 112-110 after overtime. Two days later, LA Clippers won 105-102. Both those games were in Denver. Now the teams will play in Los Angeles. I expect another very close game.

Denver Nuggets +5.50 (AH)
The series are tied at 1:1 after two games in Denver. We are now headed to Los Angeles for the third game in this fourth vs fifth seed matchup on the West. I think the odds are simply too high on Denver and we should exploit that.
The Los Angeles Clippers are playing really good basketball. However, to my taste, they are too reliant on isolation plays for Kawhai and James Harden. In the last game they won, Kawhai had an incredible night, and LAC needed every single of those points to win the game. I think we will see a lot more trapping and double-teaming for him, which could often pose a problem for Kawhai due to his poor court awareness.
The Nuggets played two poor games and still had a chance to win both of those matches. In the last game, there were several moments to win the game, but they blew it. Also, I have faith in Jokic to dominate because, as we have often seen in the past, the more the series goes on, the more he finds a way to do better and better.
Max stake on the Nuggets to cover the +5.5 AH spread at 1.9 odds.

Over 219.5 points
The first two gamesdays surface defend guided matches. But both team can play in best cast and the x-factor players in strong playflow with partially "triple double" performance. I think with so many strong thrower and playfully strong basketball players on the floor also one pointfestival possible. My tip Over
LA Clippers-Denver Nuggets Today @02:00
Over 209.5 points
The current series is tied at one a piece while the Clippers prevailed in Game 2 after an OT win in Game 1 for the Nuggets in Denver prior. Keep in mind that teams have yet to combine for more than 207 points in regulation, but I do expect the pace to pick up for this one today. Bet on over 209.5 points to iwn.
