20 DIMER - PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS
The young Thunder appear to be about out of petrol as we head into the last few days of the regular season.
Oklahoma City has dropped 7 of their last 10 both straight up, and against the spread, and another SU and ATS loss is in the cards tonight against visiting Portland.
The Blazers are looking to improve their seeding, and Portland is going the other way on the wins/losses scale, as the Trail Blazers have won and covered their last 3, and have won 7 of their last 10 overall, while covering in 8 of those 10.
Portland won the last series meeting, 106-92 back in February, and I like the final to look similar tonight.
LAY IT!
10 DIMER - HOUSTON ROCKETS
Tricky spot for LA, as the Lakers are firmly locked into #1 in the West, but are 3 games behind Cleveland for the overall best record in the league, with time running out.
After 7 straight on the road, failing their last 3 against the spread, I would tend to think the Lakers will be a little flat in this first game back in the City of Angels.
Houston is in off a loss, and really need to step things up to improve their standing in the playoff picture.
The Rockets have covered 6 of their last 8 on the road, and I like them to cover in this one.
Take the points, as the Rockets give the Lakers a tussle.
