Hey people! I’m going to be real short with this article today because 1) you don’t have time to read 10000 words, 2) I don’t have time to write it and 3) this is a pretty damn simple handicap. Let’s keep winning!

NFL Circa Picks: 42-22-1
NBA: 83-71 (54%), +11.64 units
Blazers Team Total under 101 (-115), 2 units: This is a really straightforward handicap. Here’s where the Warriors currently place on defense:
- Opp Points/Game: 1st
- Opp Avg Score Margin: 1st
- Opp Avg Points/Paint: 2nd
- Opp Assists/Game: 2nd
- Opp Turnover/Assist Ratio: 1st
- Opp Shooting %, Effective FG %, and Shooting Efficiency: 1st
Any questions? The Warriors have been the best defense all year and they rank 1st in defensive efficiency by a wide-margin because of it. The Blazers, on the other hand, are reeling. Portland has lost 6 of its last 7 games, Lillard is OUT for this game and now CJ McCollum has been diagnosed with a bruised lung and will be OUT for some time, too. In case you’re unaware, those are their top 2 scorers.
Without Lillard and McCollum, with their confidence fading, and going up against a defensive juggernaut at Golden State is not a recipe for offensive success.
Take the Blazers TT under and don’t look back!
