Golden State on a three-game winning streak

LA Clippers vs Golden State Warriors Pelicans Picks and Prediction
Pick: Golden State Warriors -2.5
LA is playing without G Bradley Beal (knee), G Max Strus (foot), F Brandon Ingram (Achilles), and C Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot). The Clippers have won three straight games against the Warriors, but their health makes it hard to believe that they can extend the streak to four. Golden State has more options on offense and has the edge on the glass. Take the Warriors to cover at home.
Pick: Under 219.5
These two teams rank in the bottom third of the league in tempo. The Warriors have an aging lineup and do not play in transition as much as in years past. The Warriors have a 3-3 O/U record and the Clippers are 2-3 O/U with their games staying under by an average of 7.3 points. LA ranks second worst in offensive efficiency and averages 105.4 points. Take the under.
Final Score Prediction: Golden State Warriors win 112-101
