Four of the last five meetings between these two have stayed UNDER, including Portland's 116-105 win on Nov. 8 that went UNDER by four points, and the posted total in tonight's game is a few points higher. The Clippers' game with Memphis on Saturday would have gone way UNDER had it not gone into overtime. Portland comes off two blowout losses to Milwaukee and Golden State, and the Trail Blazers shot just 40.9 percent against the Warriors and appeared to be a tired team as they played their sixth straight road game. The Blazers finally are home, but it will take a game or two to get back on track especially offensively as they have shot a combined 72-of 187 (38.5 percent) their last two games. Portland has gone UNDER four in a row at home after a trip of at least seven days dating to last season. Portland has also gone UNDER nine of its last 13 versus teams with winning records. Play the UNDER.
