The Portland Trailblazers are pretty much locked into the #4 seed in the Western Conference playoffs, with little chance to improve. Portland has had problems on the road this season, but have gone an impressive 32-8 at home on the season. Portland has destroyed almost every team that currently has a losing record on the season at home where they are 17-1 SU. They lost only to Boston by a single point, and have outscored these losing teams by 199 total points or by 11.1 points per game. Utah has been great defensively, but I don't think they can generate enough offense to stay in this game. Portland has put the hammer down all season at home, so lay the points on Portland.
