Washington Wizards vs Los Angeles Clippers NBA Preview
The NBA system titled "Bad Stretch, Early Road Trip" targets teams that begin a road trip following a poor stretch, both straight up and against the spread, capitalizing on the market's tendency to overvalue recent performance.
Teams coming off multiple losses often find renewed focus once they hit the road, as travel removes distractions and helps reset team chemistry, which is the case for the Wizards entering tonight's contest against the Clippers.
Early or midseason road trips (particularly from October through January) create opportunities for struggling squads to regroup and respond with urgency.
When the public fades these teams due to short-term losing trends, lines are often inflated, creating hidden value for disciplined bettors.
