Dallas at Portland

In our third big favorite of the night, I like Dallas. The Mavs are playing very good basketball right now, having won 7 of 8. They've hit triple digits in six staight games! Road favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points offr 3 straight games outrebounding opponent by 5 or more are 64-32 (67%) ATS since 1996. In their last meeting on January 3rd, Dallas crushed the Trailblazers 95-81 in Dallas. Portland has won four straight at home but underdogs revenging a same season loss vs opponent, off 3 or more consecutive home wins are just 3-22 (12%) ATS over the last 5 seasons. Portland's defense, allowing 102 per game over their last five, will have no answer for Dallas tonight. Two stars on the Mavs.
