    Under Phoenix/Portland 204

    what do you guys think about this one??


    portland has been an UNDER machine this year at home - at 2-5 (and 1 of the 2 victories was an overtime game that would have gone under if not for overtime). Also 5 of the last 5 matchups between the 2 teams and 6 of the last 8 have all gone UNDER as well

    I totally see a like a 101-93 type score in this one

    I especially like it cause of how bad portland has been shooting in recent days (but they still play tough defense)

    I have mixed feeling this game. It just depends who takes the tempo over here. If its a fast paced game and the Suns control the temp I see it going over. If Portland is in control I see the under covering. The trends are definitely in favor of the under though.

    The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Phoenix's last 5 games when playing Portland
    The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Phoenix's last 5 games when playing on the road against Portland

    The total has gone UNDER in 8 of Portland's last 11 games at home

    portland has been excellent at controlling tempo against fast paced teams like phoenix this year though


    home against phoenix early in the year - 106 - 92
    home against toronto - 97 - 84
    home against denver - 86 - 83


    all those games went way under the line. Really the only game that went over was the one against Oklahoma city but that game was 9 points UNDER the line before they went into overtime


    also keep in mind that Portland has really been struggling offensively

    I like Phoenix plus the points. I would lean on the under, but I'm staying away from it.

    lunchbawks has the right idea, IMO. Yeah, Portland has been awful on offense, but the best cure for a struggling O is the Phoenix D. I wish you guys luck, but personally I would NEVER take an under involving the Suns that is this low. They might give up 204 points themselves.

    these 2 teams played earlier in the season and there was only 198 points total scored. Portland was a much better offensive team at that point as well


    i'm expecting a 99-92 type score in this one
