Odds From Betonline.ag
The Trail Blazers are on the road in this game and it will be back to back road games here. To make matters even worse for the Trail Blazers is the Mavericks are a really good home team. Even with the Mavericks not having that great of an offense it will be easier to see Dallas picking up the win in this game but not covering the spread, instead of the Portland team on the road. On the total, it could go either way but I am thinking neither offense will show up big in the game and the total will go under.
