The Los Angeles Clippers may have dropped seven of their last ten, but they are still the No. 5 seed in a crowded Western Conference, so it's not all bad despite their stretch.

The team heads to Portland to face a spiraling Blazers team. Portland is still without lead guard Damian Lillard, who is nursing an abdominal injury and fired General Manager Neil Olshey over the weekend, leading to more questions about the franchise.

Which team can get on track on Monday night?

Here are the odds from WynnBET Sportsbook.

Clippers vs. Blazers Prediction and Pick

It's tough to back Portland against anyone at this point. The team is last in defensive rating this season and will have trouble slowing down Paul George, who is averaging 25 points, seven rebounds, and five assists on a career high usage rate (34%).

The Clips have struggled to score at times this season, 26th in offensive rating, but are built on an elite defense that is fourth in defensive rating, per NBA.com. Ultimately, I see this as the spot for the Clippers to get right as Portland continues to spiral towards the bottom of the West.

Pick: Clippers -3
