furthermore 4th game in 6 days for portland...dallas play bettere lately...
so dallas could have some chances..but it's a risky bet I think..portland is strong at home..
anyway I think I just became a mavericks fan so my mind could be clouded...so I opened this thread to know your opinion...I will came back this evening(italy evening) to check if someone left some thoughts..thanks
actualy I am leaning dallas +2,5..
