Trap would seem to be the concensus.

Even though Portland did beat the Bulls on Friday and seem to be playing hard for their interim head coach this could be a blow out by the Blazers..

This is the NBA where you never know what is going to happen...

I'll check the concensus of the bettors. If MIL is a public play, then i'll take off my bet. But if it's pretty even, I'm really liking MIL at this spot.

CHI+5.0 @ ORL was a mindfucked line today. But still, CHI covered the line. I'm hoping tomorrow would still be the same with the Bucks game.

Portland at home should be the pick here, but what Blazers team will show up?

Monte ain't playing bad for MIL since being traded. Blazers pretty good at the Rose Garden. I'm going to see how the money swings and make a decision. But for whatever it's worth, I like Indy-2.5 against a struggling Clippers team on the road that is trying to find itself. Looking for one more lock to throw in my 2 team dream.

Ellis/Jennings >>> Felton/Matthews

Gooden>Przybilla (Gooden coming off triple dub and double dub)

Delfino = Batum

and Mbah a Moute should play alright D on Aldridge.

Man, I really like this bet. Por is on a rebuilding scheme and they'll play their bench more to see which of those players have bright future for the team. Milwaukee on the other hand is half a game behind the 8th place in the standings. They'll be more than motivated to get this win to place them better for the playoff race. GL to those who'll follow. 

MIL+4.0 BIG!

This is a really hard game to cap from both teams perspectives.

POR is in a big transition area here.  They haven't played a home game in 2 weeks, they just fired their coach, and they just traded away Gerald Wallace.  I don't think anyone knows what to expect with the Blazers right now. 

As for the Bucks, they are in a transition period themselves with the acquisition of Monta Ellis. I'd wait at least two ore three more games before I make a play on the Bucks.  Anytime you bring in a guy who shoots as much as Monta, it takes a while to adjust as a team.

Looking at the trend, MIL hasn't won a game at POR since 2006 hence the line. This POR team is a totally different team. I'm pretty sure MIL will be more motivated to win this game rather than POR who know by themselves that they are in a rebuilding phase.

Batum is over Delfino any day, but Mil bench is too strong for Portland. Ilyasova, Dunleavy, Udrih vs Crawford!

Ilyasova i think is probable because of a lung / chest infection or something.

Guy, I'm with ya...MIL averaging like 110 past six games, but POR at home game avg is +10 pts higher than opps, and against teams similar to Mil it's +12 pts higher...MIL seems hot right now...H2H Mil has been throttled, but like ya said, it's a different team...I'm leaning 50/50ish, so those four points might make the difference. I think they'll probably get +250+275 on the ML though and I like that extra dough for a game I think they win SU half the time

Wonder why it's a surprise for some. Odds makers are too generous for Portland. They gave +4.5 against Boston and Boston composed majority semi retired players went on to have a 35 point lead as early as halftime. Then they got something like +4 against Indiana only to get raped by an inconsistent team. Got +5.5 only to get molested by Knicks by about a gazillion point margin. The odds makers should at least give this team at least +17.5 for it to be a fair game.
