Sports Betting Dime: Bet the Clippers with the points vs. Mavericks in Game 3
Jake Mitchell writes: "The Mavericks took Game 2, but things are still trending in the Clippers’ direction. Los Angeles has covered the spread in seven of their last 10 games, while Dallas has gone cold for bettors in just three of their last 10. Things have been the same straight up, with LA winning three of their last four, and Dallas losing three of four. Los Angeles is set for a bounce back after a game in which they shot just 29.4% from the three-point line and turned the ball over 15 times."
