Betting on the San Antonio Spurs
- Regular season record: 14-32
San Antonio Spurs has been far from shining this season. Positive results have not come consistently, and their problems are becoming more and more evident, as they are currently the team with the second-highest number of losses in the Western Conference.
To make matters worse, they are coming off their 32nd loss of the season with a 131-126 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers last Thursday. They will have a three-day break until they face the Trail Blazers, to try to make corrections and look for another win to improve a record of just one win in the last five meetings.
Betting on the Portland Trail Blazers
- Regular season record: 21-24
The Portland Trail Blazers can still get a ticket for the NBA Playoffs, but for that they need to start winning. There are many games left to play in this regular season, and there is time to react. They were able to achieve back-to-back wins over the Dallas Mavericks, but then suffered two losses to the Denver Nuggets and Philadelphia 76ers.
The Trail Blazers hope to end that losing streak in their game against the Los Angeles Lakers this Sunday, before heading off to face the Spurs in another Western Conference clash. With a win and a combination of results, they could climb out of last place in the Northwest Division.
JefeBet Prediction
Things are not going well for these teams, but Portland have done better throughout this season and by current record they come into this game with the tag of favorites. In addition, the Trail Blazers won the two previous duels this campaign against the Spurs, and it seems that history is not going to change.
Prediction: Portland Trail Blazers win by 7 points.
