The least up-tempo pace-of-play offense in the league this year has been the LA Clippers.The Clippers are expected to suffer a drop-off in plays in this contest from being pitted against the 8th-slowest pace home team in the league this year (the Philadelphia 76ers).Offensive rebounds preserve possession and lead to additional opportunities for scoring and assists, but the LA Clippers rank 4thworst in in the league with a mere 8.8 offensive rebounds per game over the last 5 games.Over the last 10 games when they are the visiting squad, the opposition's starting PFs have attempted 2.8 free throws per game (7th-lowest in the league) against the Philadelphia 76ers, facing an uphill battle to get to the foul line.
