Atlanta Hawks vs Los Angeles Clippers Preview
The Los Angeles Clippers will have fewer chances to finally get back to winning ways than against the Eastern Conference’s fodder side the Atlanta Hawks. The losing streak has left Clippers head coach Doc Rivers under severe pressure but this game has come at the right time. Neither side’s NBA odds are looking good at the moment with even the Hawks eyeing this game as a potential winner. The game will be vital to either side if they are to kick-start a potential run of form. The loser can pretty much start to rebuild ahead of the next season’s campaign already.

Atlanta Hawks vs Los Angeles Clippers Prediction
Eastern Conference rock-bottom side Atlanta Hawks are facing an arduous season which is unlikely to improve anytime soon. Point Guard Dennis Schroder is the Hawks’ highest points scorer per game this season with 19.7 on average but that is still three short of the Clippers’ Blake Griffins’ 22.7 average. This stat and many more point to a disappointing game for the Hawks even though they are on home soil. One of NBA betting tips from us is for the Clippers to end their current NBA hoodoo and finally get back to winning ways over a despondent Atlanta.
Atlanta Hawks vs Los Angeles Clippers Betting Tips
It may have been some time since the Clippers were odds on to get a win, especially away from home. But as you can read in our NBA betting match previews, their plight cannot go on forever. Betway’s latest NBA odds for a Clippers win is the best way to go in this one because at least the Clippers have the capabilities of improving as they showed in the early season. Unfortunately for Atlanta, this is as good as it is going to get and just three wins in seventeen games is poor return but not unsurprising. LA also have the safe knowledge that the last time they visited Atlanta, they came away with a fairly comfortable ten-point win and the whole squad and fans will look at this game as the perfect opportunity to reignite their season. The playoffs may be distant right now but time is on LA’s side and the Hawks will prove the perfect opponents for a side needing a lift.
The Clippers have the perfect opportunity to go from laughing stock to serious opponents in the space of four quarters. Head coach Doc Rivers needs his side to make a statement of intent as we close in on the Christmas period and he will likely get it against the Hawks. Ladbrokes’ handicap of just -3.5 is small enough to be realistic but good enough odds to be a very valuable bet. As mentioned above, the last time LA visited the Hawks, they won by ten points, a comfortable win in anyone’s book. Atlanta’s last two NBA defeats have also come by 11 points and although the Clippers’ last two games have not been close, they did run the Cleveland Cavaliers close and a little more luck may have swayed the game in their favour. It’s time for the Clippers to step up to the plate and a win by over 4 points is almost assured against an Atlanta Hawks side showing no signs of improvement.
