Point Spread: 7.50 | -110.00 Portland (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the Blazers.
Portland closed out the eight-game re-start as one of the hottest teams in the league, led by the spectacular play of Damian Lillard.
The Blazers then knocked off the Grizzlies in a one-game playoff showdown for eighth spot in the West and they then destroyed the Lakers SU in Game 1.
LA has since responded with B2B wins and covers, but I think that Portland will lay everything on the line here in Game 4 as it looks to avoid the dreaded 1-3 hole.
Portland has the firepower, depth and veteran experience to win this game outright, but this one has the feel of whichever team has its hands on the ball last will come out on top.
The Lakers have been consistently inconsistent during the bubble and I'm not convinced they've yet moved up to the next level with their play and game to game mental fortitude.
I'm grabbing the points, the play is the Blazers!
Good luck, NP
