Default Portland @ Philly

Portland -1.5 seems like a no brainer with their bench strength as of late and G.O coming along, as well of B Roy's small contributions, they've been able to win (esp vs sub par teams).


What do you guys think? Too good to be true?

portland is a good matchup against the phillies.
young guns and guys making a name. no ego in the way. both centers are offensively challenge, except the last two games for oden, need more to prove his consistency and clutch ability

would prefer to risk on this game compared to LAL and SAN, , not for the weak hearted

if you are with me on port. they need to stop the penetration and alley hoop of iguadala and young. if port does that then its in the bag.

you cant expect phillie to shoot the lights out of the building overnight. fewest threes attempted and made, except for the last two games

phillie on a 4game winning streak, but like minny, they are due for a loss.

And finally like in any play. some games are to good to be true. but like in any risk, no guts no glory.

GL on your play

My first thoughts: Philly isn't good enough to keep up the streak. I think Portland can stop them.

I agree, one of my main rule is dont bet against players that are just too raw, like andre iguadola haha however b-roy might cancel him out.

I'm leanin towards portland, they're too deep
