Dallas at Portland

There is no doubt that Portland gets energized by playing at home. When they have taken to the road they have stumbled. Counting the playoffs, the Blazers are now 31-11 at home while the road tally shows just 18-25. That means they win 32% more games at home than they do on the road. They showed that difference in game three after getting beaten twice in Dallas by an average of 10 points per game. The Mavs have not covered any of their last seven in the playoffs as an underdog, and Portland has been sizzling down the stretch at home at 9-2-1 ATS in their last 12 at the Rose Garden. Dallas is now also 6-2-1 to the UNDER in their last nine quarterfinals playoff games, and 7-3 to the UNDER in their last 10 games on a single day of rest, while Portland is 9-4 to the UNDER on one day of rest in their last 13. Portland covers and the total stays UNDER.
