Pick of the Day for Sat April 11

Game: Portland Trail Blazers @ Los Angeles Clippers
League: NBA
Pick: Portland Trail Blazers
Offered at: -6.5

Reason For Pick
The Blazers have improved their play on the road lately, winning six of their last eight. Portland destroyed the Clippers in their last meeting back in February, 116 - 87. The Blazers are fighting hard to earn homecourt for the first round of the playoffs and a win tonight will be huge for them. Zach Randolph, Marcus Camby and Chris Kaman will all be in the line up for the Clippers but they have no one who can contain Brandon Roy. In three games vs the Clippers this season Roy has averaged 30.3 points. I fully expect the Clippers to cover the 6.5 points.

Recent Record:
LOSS - April 10, NBA (CHA @ OKC), Pick - CHA (-3)
LOSS - April 9, NBA (DEN @ LAL), Pick - DEN (+8.5)
WIN - April 8, NBA (DET @ NYK), Pick - DET (-3.5)
WIN - April 7, NHL (STL @ PHX), Pick - STL

Year to Date Record (win-loss): 2-1
