4* Trailblazers/Mavericks NBA Blockbuster Beatdown: Mavericks -4.5

The Mavericks were embarrassed in their most recent outing against the Thunder, losing 91-112 at Oklahoma City. Dallas has lost three of four, but all three of those losses came on the road, where they haven't played well. The Mavericks will be extremely motivated to get a win tonight and should be able to do just that against a Portland team that is only 8-15 on the road, getting outscored by nearly 6.5 ppg.

Dallas falls into a very favorable system. Favorites of 3.5-9.5 points who are coming off a 20+ loss in a game where you have a strong offensive team (98-102 ppg) against a poor defensive team (98-102 ppg) are a dominant 37-12 ATS since 1996! BET THE MAVERICKS!
