Phoenix Suns vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction

The Portland Trail Blazers have won six of their last seven games, so they’re getting some respect from oddsmakers at home with the rest advantage. I’ve also bashed the Suns all season long and continue to say they’re not a good team. However, I’m not buying this recent surge from the Trail Blazers. The Suns have won six of the last seven games against the Trail Blazers and if they’re going to build on these seven wins in their last 10 games, these are games they need to take advantage of. There are reports the Suns are pushing hard for Jimmy Butler and trying to become a contender. You can’t lose to Portland and consider yourself serious. The line is soft. Give me the Suns.
