Portland at Golden State

The Golden State Warriors sure look like they are back at 20-4. They have had two heavyweight games vs Phoenix which they split and subsequently fell to San Antonio, and I think refocusing after the big winning streak and big matchups with Phoenix has taken something away from the team focus. Portland is without their star-starting guards so I don't see this as a turning point for Golden State to suddenly deliver an "A" game. Portland is struggling but typically bad teams put forth a strong effort against an elite team, while the elite team often struggles to match that intensity. I don't see why that will be different here. Make the play on Portland.
