Houston at Portland
Play: Portland -5.5
The Trailblazers have been solid in Portland this season including recent wins over the top two teams in the West, the Lakers (106-98) and Denver (104-76). At home off of a SU loss the Trailblazers are 17-2 SU and 13-6 ATS. At the same time the Rockets had dropped 4 straight as road dogs before Game 1. Lots of things went Houston's way in the opening game as they shot an incredible 58.5% while Portland's youngsters got overwhelmed with their first taste of the post-season. Now that the Blazers kids have a playoff game under their belts see the home edge coming back into play here and Portland rolling in this one as Rockets got the road playoff win they were looking for.
