On Friday, the Denver Nuggets head to Moda Center to face Blazers in Portland, USA.
This should be an excellent and entertaining game, but I like Portland at home. The Nuggets have a solid offense but are missing Porter Jr., who is a vital part of the offense.
Denver’s biggest weapon is arguably Jokic – but Jurkic is a solid defender who can help limit the big man’s chances down low. When these two teams played back in October, it was Portland who won 135-110 in a game Jokic had just 9 points, and Murray had 8. The Trail Blazers played a great defensive game against Denver, and they can do it again at home. Portland is also on a role here, and I like them to defend well while showing they have the offense to take advantage.
Although Portland has been solid in hitting the under, I like the over in this one. As we saw the last time these two teams played, their offenses showed they were much better than the defense.
The Trail Blazers are playing at a pace of 99 but rank 11th in offensive efficiency, while Denver is playing at a rate of 98.3; they have an offensive efficiency of 113.9, which ranks third. Although the game may not be at a high pace, they both can make their shots. Meanwhile, in Portland’s last ten games, they are averaging 226.6 PPG, while Denver’s games are averaging 226 PPG in their last ten, which is why I like the over here.
Take Portland.
