Portland at Dallas

The Blazers certainly haven't been a good road team this season, but I think they can keep this game close. This team is at its best when coming off a road game. Over the past three seasons, Portland is 60-36 ATS after a road game including 31-12 ATS following a road game in which they were favored. When coming off a road win, they are 29-16 ATS the past three seasons. The Mavericks have failed to cover the number in four of their last five home games and they are also 1-5 ATS in their last six after an ATS win. Finally, this is a big revenge game for the Trailblazers who were knocked out of the playoffs by the Mavs last year. Take the points with a motivated Blazers team tonight. Also take the UNDER here. Portland has held teams to just 92.6 per game on the season while Dallas is holding opponents to 91.5 per game. On the year, Dallas is 9-5 UNDER at home while Portland is 9-4 UNDER on the road. Since last season, the Blazers are 32-20 UNDER following a game in which the total went OVER. Under Nate McMillan, Portland is 80-59 UNDER on the road following a win. In their last eleven as a road dog, the Trailblazers are 8-3 to the UNDER and in their last 29 road games vs. teams with a winning home record, Portland is 21-8 to the UNDER. Take Portland and the UNDER in this one.
