Portland at San Antonio

Portland has yet to find the win column on the road, sitting at 0-8. What they have done however is remain competitive to the line, where they have been 3-1 as a double-digit dog. They have only lost three of their 16 games by this amount, and it is a big price to pay in the NBA. San Antonio has gone 5-1-1 ATS covering these big lines, but we don't see them playing with a lot of energy here as they have Dallas up next followed by Utah. They managed an 11 point margin in four games vs Portland last year, none wider than 16. And in their game this season at home won by 9. We think this is an overlay and will ride the Blazers to keep within the lofty number.
