How can you NOT take the Clippers tonight?
Seriously - I know if it seems obvious, it's usually good to go against the pick - but how in the world are the Heat going to beat the Clippers tonight? They have won only one game or two since Christmas, and that was WITH Wade. The Clips are playing awful lately, but certainly have the talent to beat the Heat fairly easily. This may be one time I go with the public. Any thoughts?
