Our pre-game preview

Golden State Warriors are our pick at home against the LA Clippers. The model gives them a 57% chance of winning, which makes this game a lean (55 to 65%).

On the rosters we expect, Golden State Warriors rate as the stronger team (85.9 to 83.8 on our team-strength rating), and that is the main reason for the pick.

Recent form: LA Clippers have been losing by 2.2 points a game, while Golden State Warriors have been losing by 0.6 points a game.

Injuries: LA Clippers will be without Brandon Ingram (32 min a game), Max Strus (26 min a game), Jordan Miller (25 min a game) and Bradley Beal (20 min a game) and Golden State Warriors will be without Jimmy Butler III (31 min a game), Draymond Green (29 min a game), Stephen Curry (28 min a game), Moses Moody (28 min a game) and Kristaps Porzingis (23 min a game). Players listed as unsure are counted by how likely they are to play.

Season so far: LA Clippers are 1–7 and Golden State Warriors are 7–3.

This preview was written from the data we had before the game.

Game review

What happened

The Warriors beat the Clippers 124–112 at home. Yaxel Lendeborg led them with 37 points and 6 assists, making 6 of 11 threes, and De'Anthony Melton added 21. For the Clippers, Rui Hachimura had 24 points and 7 rebounds.

What the model got right

The model gave the Warriors a 57% chance at home, mainly because of their higher team-strength rating (85.9 to 83.8), and they won by 12. Recent form pointed the same way: the Warriors had been losing by 0.6 points a game, the Clippers losing by 2.2. Brandon Ingram, Max Strus, Jordan Miller and Bradley Beal for the Clippers, and Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Jimmy Butler III, Moses Moody and Kristaps Porzingis for the Warriors, all missed the game, as the preview expected.

What didn't work

Not much went against the model in this one. Rui Hachimura's 24 points for the Clippers weren't enough to change the result.

Why

The result fits what the model leaned on, the team-strength rating. One win doesn't prove the model right: at 57%, about 4 in 10 games like this go the other way, and every result stays on our record.
