The LA Clippers will be on the road to take on the New York Knicks on Sunday, January 23rd.
The tip-off is set for 1:00 ET from Madison Square Garden.
New York started off as a 3 point favorite and that number is now up to 4. The total has gone from 208 to 206.5.
LA Clippers
Considering the circumstances, I would say the Clippers have played better than some people might have thought.
In their last four games, this team is 2-2. They are really going to have to rattle off multiple wins in a row before they get a much better seeding because it seems like they are just trading wins and losses.
Clearly, two big losses for them are Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Whenever you are missing your two best players, it is always quite difficult.
In the absence of those two guys, a lot of other people have had to step up. I would say they have at some points, but it has not been done on a consistent enough level.
Los Angeles did pick up a win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday by a score of 102-101. It was definitely an impressive win for them over one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference.
Reggie Jackson led the team in scoring in their last game with 19 points and 9 assists. Nicolas Batum also added in 15 points and 7 rebounds.
New York Knicks
It has been a very up-and-down season for the Knicks so far. They just have not seemed to get into a groove and it is starting to get late for that to happen.
New York currently has a record of 22-24, which puts them in 11th place in the Eastern Conference. Unless they change a lot of things, it is very possible that they will hover around that spot for the whole season.
Last year, this was a team that surprised a lot of folks, but that has not been the case this season. People have been ready for them and are executing better when they face them.
These guys lost to the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday by a score of 102-91. Those are the sorts of losses that just have to drive the fans and players crazy.
Against a bad defense like New Orleans, there is no excuse to score that few points. Against anyone, scoring less than 100 makes it very hard to win ball games.
NBA Betting Trends:

- The Knicks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games at home against the Clippers.
- The Knicks are 0-7 SU in their last 7 games played on a Sunday.
LA Clippers vs. New York Knicks NBA Analysis:
A few days after a terrible loss to the Pelicans, the Knicks will look to rebound when they take on the Clippers at MSG. It is one they really have got to get.
Given the struggles New York has had, especially against teams they should beat, it is hard to have all that much confidence backing them at this point.
After picking up a nice win over the Sixers on Friday, it would not shock me if the Clippers come out with a little extra confidence. If they can take them down, they know they can take the Knicks down.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Clippers ATS
In this spot, I really just do not trust the Knicks. They have not been playing great and I am not so sure they will look all that great in this one.
For me, the 4 points are too high to lay with New York. They may win the game, but I am not sold on them covering it.
