Portland Trail Blazers Betting Preview
The Portland Trail Blazers have cooled off a bit recently with four losses in their last five games and they will be hoping to avoid a fourth straight defeat after getting beaten by the Pistons in a 119-112 loss last night. Anfernee Simons led the team with 34 points on 14 of 26 shooting, Jerami Grant drained six 3-pointers to finish with 25 points while Scoot Henderson chipped in with 15 points off the bench. As a team, the Trail Blazers shot just 38 percent from the field and 15 of 50 from the 3-point line as they looked a step behind the Pistons from the start. They fell behind by as many as 18 points in the third quarter before they rallied late to cut the margin to single digits. Tounami Camara scored just seven points in 33 minutes of action while Duop Reath shot just one of nine from the field to finish with just five points off the bench. The Trail Blazers will face the Knicks following this one.
Golden State Warriors Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors have been on fire as they’ve reeled off nine wins from their last 10 games and they will be gunning for a fifth straight victory after sneaking past the Pistons in a 115-110 home win on Saturday. Stephen Curry led the team with 32 points and four assists, Jimmy Butler added 26 points with nine rebounds and five assists while Draymond Green chipped in with 12 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists. As a team, the Warriors shot just 41 percent from the field and 12 of 41 from the 3-point line as they struggled to get going and trailed by single digits for most of the contest. However, they were rock solid in crunch time once again as they closed the final 2:01 on a 12-5 run to win yet another close one. The Warriors will take on the Kings, Knicks, and Nuggets next.

Warriors vs Trail Blazers Prediction
The Trail Blazers are still missing Deandre Ayton, Deni Avdija, and Robert Williams, while the Warriors are still missing Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga. The Trail Blazers have been doing it tough lately as they’ve had to play red-hot teams like the Cavaliers, Celtics, and the Thunder. Things don’t get much easier as they visit the Warriors, who have won nine of their last 10 games. The line is certainly hefty for this one, but the Trail Blazers are playing this one on zero days rest, so I will lean toward the Warriors to pull away and make it another blowout win at home.
