The 22-22 Portland Trail Blazers will host the 23-21 Miami Heat in NBA action early on Friday morning. The Trail Blazers are 9th in the West while their visitors are currently 8th in the East. Read on for our prediction on the match.
10 wins in 13 games has pushed the Portland Trail Blazers back up to the .500 mark this season for the first time since mid-November when they were 6-6. They had lost in Miami a week earlier than that 131-136, a game that could’ve gone either way, tied at 127 with 2:16 left.
Only the New York Knicks have taken the win away from the Moda Center in the last eight games played here, the Boston Celtics and the Houston Rockets (twice) falling to Portland, so they have beaten some solid sides.
The Heat are only 1-4 in their last five on the road and have alternated losses and wins in their last six games overall. They picked up that road win last time out at the Sacramento Kings, winning by 13.
Portland had won in Sacramento two nights prior by seven, so there is some sort of form guide there with the pair both beating the same team. That took Miami’s record on the road to 8-14 which is significantly lower than their 15-7 marker at home.
