After a road win over Brooklyn, the Trail Blazers played four games and lost in all of them, with a difference of at least 11 points. First, the team failed on the road against New York (84:112), Oklahoma (77:139), and Minnesota (93:116), and then, returning home, lost to Phoenix (116:127).
Overall, Portland has only ten wins in 39 games since the start of the season. In the Western Conference standings, the Trail Blazers are only ahead of San Antonio, who are 7-32.
Brooklyn Nets
The Nets are not outsiders in the East but are in the top ten, but their balance of wins leaves much to be desired - 16-23. The team approaches the match in Portland with three defeats in a row. After a home loss to the Trail Blazers, Brooklyn lost away to Cleveland (102:111) and failed at home to Miami (95:96 (88:88) after overtime).
In general, it can be noted that the Nets simply have a weak lineup with absolutely no stars. So, the position in the top-10 in the East is a great intermediate result and an absolute credit to the coaching staff led by Jacques Vaughn.
Expert Betting Tips
Brooklyn has an imbalance in the game. The Nets are often good on offense but fail on defense. The recent first meeting of the season series with Portland was proof of that. There, the rivals scored 230 points between them, even in regulation time, and the upcoming game is unlikely to be much different in this regard. We bet on a productive game.
