I'm just saying that Wolves are motivated, so no reason to think they will mail in the game and Blazers usually start strong, but start to drop at some moment (though usually about a month from now). I believe that Wolves should be small favorites, so it's hard for me to see value in backing Blazers as favorites.
Further more, while Blazers facing Minny are 8 - 1 ATS the last 9 games, this is clearly home team series, with home team winning the last 8 games (Minny won three at home and Portland 5 at home). Doubt it will matter, but Blazers also have a game in DC after that, against a team they lost to, at home, after OT, earlier this season...
I like Wolves here to be honest...
