This is a 10* 2ND ROUND TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER between the Portland Trailblazers and the Golden State Warriors.
Golden State rolled to a 118-106 win in Game 1 without Stephen Curry and will look to make it two in a row before the series shifts to Portland. We think we're going to see a much more defensive affair in Game 2 though as the Blazers look to even the series and salvage the split. We had a play on the UNDER in Game 2 of the Thunder/Spurs last night and obviously OKC stepped it up big time on the defensive end, the main factor which won it the game. Portland will have to do the same, look for it to key on the Warriors' perimeter game. The Blazers were down 37-17 after the first quarter in Game 1, so there's no question the team will be fired up to atone for the slow start. We think we'll see a lot of fouling going on today as each team tries to assert itself and a slower paced game = less shots and less shots = less points. Note that Portland has seen the total go UNDER the number in all three games that it's played in the postseason when trailing in a series, while Golden State has seen the total fall below the posted number in three of four in the playoffs when leading in a series. The absence of Curry is big, his teammates have been up to the challenge so far, but to expect the Warriors to shoulder the load without their superstar indefinitely is asking too much. We think Portland gets some inspiration from what the Thunder did to the Spurs last night and expect Game 2 to be a lot more competitive; look for the the total to sneak UNDER the number once the final horn blares.
