Spurs vs Trail Blazers Prediction
The current betting odds have the Spurs listed as a 4.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Spurs have looked great in their games this season with their 6-2 record overall which has them in the top half of the West. They have been a good road team too with their 2-0 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers have looked great in their games this season with their 6-1 record overall which has them right at the top of the West. They haven't looked great on their home court though with their 1-1 home record this season. The Trail Blazers are off to a really hot start this season with their new head coach and they were a team that was improving a lot throughout the season last year. They have been rolling lately with 3 wins in a row, but they have also opened the season with a weaker schedule and they are about to find out what they are made of. They have been beating up on a lot of bad teams, but now they are playing one of the best teams in the NBA who was in the Finals last season. The Spurs had a terrible start to the year going 0-2, but they have put themselves back on track lately. They have been rolling now with 6 wins in a row and they have been playing against better teams. Neither team has an advantage here since both are playing on a back-to-back with NBA Cup games on Friday night, but the Spurs definitely have it easier with a game against the Kings who are one of the worst teams in the NBA while the Trail Blazers have a much tougher road game against a good Lakers team. This is a better situation for the Spurs who have a lot more talent and depth. The best way to place a bet here is on the Spurs to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“We want Victor to impose his will on the paint and the rim every time. I mean, I think everyone knows what the ripple effects are for us or for the opponents when he does that.” - Mitch Johnson after his team’s win against the Mavs in their game on Wednesday.
“Most importantly, we got to the free throw line 41 times, and with that, we still had 29 assists. So the ball was moving. I felt that the way they had guys at the level and were putting two on the ball, we were moving it. Sometimes I felt like we even passed up some really good shots.” - Micah Nori after his team’s win against the Suns in their game on Wednesday.
