The rising LA Clippers take on the Eastern Conference leaders, the Detroit Pistons, for the first time in this NBA season. The Clippers are looking to extend their winning streak, while the Pistons will be fighting to keep a hold of their top spot as the Knicks close in. Let's get into this match prediction.
The Clippers have now won three games in a row for the first time this season. That run has now pushed them to 13th after losing a staggering 21 of their first 27 games. With a little over half the season to still play for, the Clippers will be looking to at least avoid missing the playoffs for the first time since 2017-18.
And three straight wins against the Lakers (103-88), Rockets (128-108), and Blazers (119-103) is just the kind of momentum they need. The Pistons, on the other hand, slipped up to the Utah Jazz in a narrow 131-129 loss to end their three-game winning streak.
Detroit is still 24-7 for the season, but the Knicks are just two wins behind and closing in fast. If the Pistons hope to finish first in the Eastern Conference for the first time since 2007/08, they need to tighten that defence further. The question now is whether the Clippers can penetrate that defence for a fourth win in a row?

Our LA Clippers vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
The numbers suggest a relatively low-scoring game, as the already offensively dull Clippers face the second-tightest defence in the league. Even the Clippers tend not to allow too many points. And they showed this in their latest three wins, where they kept the Lakers, Rockets, and Blazers (3 of the top 15 highest in PPG) to 88, 108, and 103 points, respectively.
Moreover, the Pistons are one of the worst three-point shooters, indicating the possibility of low volume from beyond the arc. Hence, our LA Clippers vs Detroit Pistons prediction is Under 230.5 Points.
