Chip's Highest-Rated NBA Winner (POR/DEN)
(NBA) Portland vs. Denver,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -104.00 Portland (Away)
Result: Loss
Portland at Denver 10:00 ET
Trailblazers (+) over Nuggets- Of all players that I least expect to deliver in the clutch was the difference in Game 1 as Megabucks winner Portland used the experience and scoring capabilities of Carmelo Anthony. Injected in the game late in the 1st quarter Anthony provided the offensive spark needed to propel the Trailblazers past the Nuggets. For Denver Michael Porter replaced Jamal Murray and for the most part the Nuggets never missed a step as they closed the season 12-4 without Murray. But, Portland is 24-13 SU on the road have depth to win again. Take PORTLAND!
