This year when they are on the road, the opposing team's starting PGs have averaged 42.1% on field goals (8th-weakest in the NBA) against the LA Clippers, making this a tough matchup.The Nets have played at the most lethargic pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 15 games.The Nets will likely experience a decrease in opportunities in this contest from being pitted against the most sluggish tempo home team in the league this year (the Clippers).Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and create added chances for scoring and assists, but the Nets rank 3rdworst in in the NBA while playing away from home with only 8.7 offensive boards per game over the last 15 games.The matchup vs. Los Angeles is a difficult one for getting to the charity stripe; opposing starting PGs have attempted a lowly 2.9 free throws per game this year when the Clippers are on their home court (8th-least in the league).
