The Toronto Raptors and the Portland Trail Blazers will both be trying to pick up a win on Sunday when they battle at Rose Garden.

The Raptors were defeated 124-112 by the Warriors last time out, as 2-point favorites. That game’s 236 points sailed OVER the posted total of 232.
Jose Calderon had 24 points with 12 boards for a double-double. Chris Bosh also collected a double-double with 24 points and 11 rebounds.
The Trail Blazers jumped out to an early lead and went on to defeat the Kings 110-94 on Friday. The Trail Blazers covered the 2-point spread, while the 204 points made it OVER the posted total of 192.5.
Brandon Roy led the Trail Blazers with 28 points, and LaMarcus Aldridge finished with 18 in the win.

The Raptors may not win this game but they have the fire power to keep it close. 8.5 seems way to high of a spread as this is also a desperately needed win for the Raptors. If you are looking to bet the over that always seems to be a good bet when the Raptors play any team with their lack of defense. I am putting down a parlay with the Raptors covering the spread and the game going over the total.
