Raptors minus 8 hosting Clippers
Toronto has the best home record in the NBA at 30-6. The Raptors also have the No. 1 defensive rating at home. They are in a bad mood, too, after losing to the Cavaliers on the road this past Wednesday and then following that up with a flat performance in a 116-112 home victory against the Nets two days ago.
The Raptors were far from happy with their sloppy victory against the lowly Nets. They have payback for a 96-91 road loss to the Clippers from December when they had to play without rest. Now they catch the struggling Clippers, who are 1-5 in their last six games, playing their fourth road game in six days.
The Clippers are 1-7 ATS during their past eight visits to Toronto.
Toronto has reached triple-digits in 25 of its last 26 games. The Clippers are giving up an average of 119 points during their past five games. The Raptors have won 15 games by 15 or more points. This matchup has the feel of another Raptors’ blowout victory.
