(NBA) Portland vs. Golden State,
Point Spread: -13.50 | -110.00 Golden State (Home)
Result: Win
Play: Golden State Warriors
Rating: 10*

The Portland Trail Blazers are going through an incredibly tough stretch of the schedule. This will be their seventh road game (of eight total) since Dec. 5. They've lost all but one of those road games outright and covered the spread just once. Here they'll visit the Golden State Warriors who are going for a fourth consecutive win and cruised to a 103-90 victory over the Knicks on Thursday.

Golden State is 14-5 ATS in its last 19 games playing on one days rest and it has covered the spread in 22 of the past 30 meetings with Portland. The Warriors took the last three regular season meetings while averaging 130.3 points and the Blazers are playing absolutely terrible defense this season.

We can also note that the Blazers are just 6-14 ATS vs. teams averaging 99+ points/game, and I would not be surprised to see the Warriors running away and win this game with 20+ points. The Warriors next game is not until Dec. 20 at home against Utah, so no reason not to give 100 percent effort for the full game here.
