Stephen Nover's NBA Western Conference Game of the Month
(NBA) LA Clippers vs. Dallas,
Point Spread: -3.00 | -108.00 LA Clippers (Away)
Result: Win
The Clippers were in deep trouble of not only getting swept by the Mavericks, but also becoming a national joke trailing 2-0 in the series and down by 19 points on the road in Game 3. 

But the Clippers got it together and won Game 3, 118-108 this past Friday. This doesn't mean the series is over. However, the momentum has shifted. The Clippers have figured things out and I do see them winning Game 4. 

Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are living up to their superstar labels averaging 34.3 points and 26.7 points, respectively. Luka Doncic is a monster for Dallas. The rest of the Mavericks I don't trust, including Kristaps Porzingis. The Mavericks shot 50 percent from the floor in Game 1 and made an unbelievable 58.5 percent of their shots from the floor in Game 2. They only are an average scoring team. So those games weren't normal. 
The Clippers are the No. 4 defensive team in the NBA. They ranked sixth in defensive field goal percentage. Dallas shot 44.2 percent from the field in Game 3. The Mavericks made 47 percent of their field goals during the regular season. They are not a 50 percent shooting team especially against an upper tier defense. 

Dallas has failed to cover seven of the past nine times it has hosted the Clippers.
