Portland Trailblazers -2.5 -105
We have gone to work the previous two nights hitting both our plays for 105x of profit.
Tonight we look to the often overlooked Northwest (the Durant Supersonics lasted what?), where the Portland Trailblazers still feel they are fighting for their playoff lives. Later on this evening, in a building that holds one of the best advantages in the NBA, the Trailblazers will face one of the most overrated teams possible.
Joe Johnson will not play, but this is a complete non-factor in my bet as I believe he is by far the most overpaid player in the entire league today (and Kobe Bryant is making 30,450,000 USD)
These are the matchups that I enjoy seeing:
Do not be fooled. What you are viewing is an up and coming All-Star against a man with an ego so large he had one of the best coaches in the history of this sport ran out (and then enjoyed a massive contract). When we incorporate the 'heart' factor, especially in the Garden, I believe Portland is even, or may have the slight edge in this matchup. Look for a big game from Lillard, and look for Deron Williams to collect a game check.
Advantage: Portland against these two scrub city players. Humphries should be extradited from the league.
Batum makes Gerald Wallace look like a 9th grade scrub.
