Utah Jazz vs. Portland Trailblazers
Sunday, February 21, 2010 at 10:30 PM ET on ESPN
The Portland Trailblazers (32-25) welcome the Utah Jazz (35-19) tonight for their final meeting this season, in what oddsmakers expect to be an extremely tight game. Portland, playing at home, is favored by just a point. Utah's Deron Williams disagreed with the trade of Ronnie Brewer, but it didn't seem to shake the Utah Jazz in their last 100-89 victory at Golden State. A win tonight would extend their three game winning streak to four, and would make for a Utah sweep of the Trailblazers for the first time since the 2005-2006 season.
Portland comes off a 20 point loss to Boston and hopes to make a statement, while beginning to move forward again tonight. The recent addition of Marcus Camby might help prevent the sweep. Utah has lost 9 of their last 12 in the Rose Garden, but the Utah Jazz have won six straight road games. Their road winning streak is the longest they've seen in 8 years. Last time these two teams met up in Portland, Utah walked away with a 105-96 victory. Whichever way it goes, it should be a good one.
Portland is listed at -1 with the total at 192. Total points scored in their last game against each other was 223.
