Lowly Clippers visit struggling Thunder
Basketball Betting Lines
11/19/2008 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oklahoma City Thunder are having a miserable start to
their inaugural season and will resume a three-game homestand this evening
versus the just-as-lowly Los Angeles Clippers at the Ford Center.
Oklahoma City is only 1-10 on the season and has dropped eight in a row since
its only win on November 2 versus Minnesota. In Monday's 100-89 loss to the
Houston Rockets in the opener of the residency, reigning Rookie of the Year
Kevin Durant poured in a game-high 29 points, grabbed seven boards and dished
out four assists for the Thunder.
Jeff Green added 16 points and Russell Westbrook netted 14 off the bench in a
losing cause for Oklahoma City, which will also host the New Orleans Hornets.
The Thunder are just 1-5 as the host this season.
On the injury front for the Thunder, forward Chris Wilcox is probable for
Wednesday's game with a sprained right knee.
Los Angeles is just as bad with a 1-9 record this season and will kick off a
three-game road trip Wednesday at Oklahoma City.
The Clippers have dropped three in a row after winning their first game of the
season on November 9 versus Dallas. They suffered an 86-83 setback at the
hands of the San Antonio Spurs on Monday at the Staples Center, as Cuttino
Mobley scored a team-high 18 points while Chris Kaman chipped in 17 points and
13 boards in defeat.
Baron Davis ended with 11 points and eight assists for the Clippers, who will
also visit Philadelphia and New Jersey on the trek. LA is 0-2 on the road in
2008-09.
Los Angeles went 2-1 against Seattle/Oklahoma City last season and has won
four of the past six matchups.
The Clippers have lost 20 of 26 as the visitor in this series.
