The team has lost two straight including a 97-92 home defeat last night to Indiana as a +1 ½ point underdog. This Kings team has struggled offensively on the season averaging just 94 points and hits on 44.1% of their shots. The Clippers broke a four game losing streak by defeating Minnesota on Wednesday 101-95 as a -9 point favorite. A much better defensive effort by the Clippers as they allow the Timberwolves just 37.8% shooting. That was with Kevin Love in the lineup. Chauncey Billups made his season debut with the Clippers and contributed with 7 points on 1 of 5 shooting. This is a scary game for Clippers backers here as they have looked their worst this season against bad teams and looked their best against the elite teams from the NBA. LA has shot well this season making 47 1/2% of their shots this season.
