Portland Finna win tonight.
For sure.
The San Antonio Spurs begin a nine game road trip tonight when they face the injury riddled Portland Trail Blazers.
With the annual rodeo in town, the league leading Spurs head out on their annual road trip, where they will take their 25-2 road record and spend the next 17 straight days on the road. The Trail Blazers on the other hand have enjoyed a nice stretch at home as they have only travelled twice since the 7th on January. The Trail Blazers however will be looking to secure a win tonight after back to back losses to Sacramento and Boston.
The under is 5-2 in Trail Blazers last seven home games and 10-4 in Trail Blazers last 14 games playing on three or more days rest. The under is also 20-7 in Spurs last 27 games as a favorite and 10-2 in Spurs last 12 overall. Head to head, the Trail Blazers are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings and 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings in Portland. The home team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings while the under is 4-1 in the last five.
The Spurs do have the 5th best offense in the league, however 10 of their last 12 games have gone under the total. There not nearly the same offensive team they were to start to the season as they have gone back to more of a balanced attack. The Trail Blazers on the other hand rank in the bottom six in points per game and are coming off 81 and 78 points outings in their last two games. To me, this just feels like a low scoring game and I can't see both teams reach 95 points here.
As for the game itself, this is a tricky one because although the Spurs are clearly playing the better basketball, they have really struggled against the Blazers recently as they have lost five of the last six meetings. Not to mention, the Blazers are 16-7 at home this season.
Dan's Pick: Under 191.5
Dan's Pick: Portland +6
