[Tuna_No_Crust]

i like portland 1h

 

[eriffic]

i feel like every game is going under, so i think i might pound the over. or tease over and blazers. gluck

 

[Beama]

Like the overs too, currently its 188 over for me.

 

[Deke101]

Portland will play D like always. So you guys on the over better hope portland scores a lot.

My prediction:

Portland 99
Clippers 85

 

[Beama]

Thanks for the advice Deke, I was thinking around 105-85. Think I will just stick to the -10.5.

im thinking port 1st half, thoughts?

I locked in port -9.5 last night.

I love this play if they dont cover ill be shocked. clippers are absolutely brutal

 

[Beama]

GreenChris.....pretty hard to see Portland behind at any point in this game. 1st half play sounds good to me.

while capping the games earlier, i had a lean toward portland, but saw something that put me off the game. 8 hours ago and i don't remember, but i'd go minimum here either way.

took LAC 1Q +210

Clippers on a back to back, but at home. I think the Clippers will compete down low with Camby and Thornton, although Portland has the better post game offensively, I think the big men are better defensively tonight than they are offensively. Gordon will struggle to score for the Clippers. Roy shouldn't have a problem scoring, and dishing to Rodriguez for 3's. Very hard to take the Clippers, but I think it will be low scoring so 10 is a lot to give up for the Blazers especially since the Clippers could have a back door cover pretty easily tonight.

i notice that the clips have been losing but they have been keeping it close. Since the games Camby has been out their largest loss was by 11pts to the Lakers. I think Oden goes crazy tonight, but I'm debating whether to take the blazers for the game or stick to 1st half.

am thinking the same thing, but I though Camby was out???

 

[rbrown348]

he is out

C-Camby-Doubtful

 

[Deke101]

Your right, Camby is out (I didn't know until now).

So I think that makes Portland solid tonight and I'm thinking 103-85 final score. Clippers will miss Camby's D a lot. Portland will dominate down low, and they have a much better perimeter game than LAC as well. But as we have said in the past for this injured Clippers line-up, 'How can they cover this spread?' But the Clippers have managed to hold their own despite having 4 of their top 5 players out (give or take). I still like Portland tonight now.

Also, without Camby's defensive presence, it is very possible that Portland can dominate down low and push this game over by themselves.
