Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen will tonight be on the same court for the first time since the 1998 NBA Finals as the Washington Wizards play host to the Portland Trailblazers.
The (9-9) Trailblazers try for three straight wins when they play the second of a five game road trip. Last time out they were at Toronto and came away with a 104-91 win. Portland's only three losses in their last nine games have come against upper-echelon teams in the Mavericks, Nets and Kings. The Blazers are 5-2 ATS on the road this season and 4-1 ATS their last five overall.
The (9-11) Wizards are 3-1 SU recently but are a money-burning 6-14 ATS this season primarily due to the Jordan factor exaggerating lines. They are 0-6 ATS in non-conference games this season and 1-6 ATS as an underdog.
The Blazers have won the last seven meetings between these teams SU, have covered four of the last five and we expect that to continue tonight.
Recommended Play: Portland PK
