Randy’s Pick
The Portland Trail Blazers are coming off a nice road win over the Raptors, but it’s going to take more than that to get people on their side. The Trail Blazers are still sluggish offensively, and they haven’t shown much resistance defensively yet. The Detroit Pistons have been a surprise up to this point and the offense is starting to come along. The Pistons could be a team to watch if this continues. These are games they need to keep the progress going. I’ll lay the reasonable number with the home team.
