Clippers are five-point ‘dogs for Game 5 at OKC

Washington will try to stave off elimination tonight at Indiana. The Pacers have won three in a row to take a 3-1 series advantage. They are 5.5-point home favorites with a total of 182.

The Wizards have covered the number in eight consecutive road games, winning seven of those contests outright. They’ve got to get improved play from John Wall, who has been held below his regular-season scoring average in every game of this series. Plus, Wall has committed 12 turnovers in the last two outings.

In the late game on TNT at 9:30 p.m. Eastern, Oklahoma City will take on the Clippers as a five-point home ‘chalk.’ L.A. pulled even in the series at 2-2 with Sunday’s comeback win at Staples Center.
