AAA's COAST-TO-COAST "ASSASSIN!" (217-162 +$40,116 NBA RUN s/2013!)
(NBA) Portland vs. Detroit, 12/09/2014 2:30 PM, Score: 98 - 86
Point Spread: -7.50 | -105.00 Portland (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* ASSASSIN on the Portland Trailblazers.

Detroit is coming off its first ATS victory in quite some time but has lost 12 straight SU coming into this one and suffice it to say, I think the high-flying visiting side takes full advantage of this scuffling home side. These two teams are obviously moving in complete polar opposite directions right now as Portland is looking for a 14th win in 15 games. Home court advantage has been anything but for the struggling Pistons as they've lost nine in a row in Detroit; their last game was particularly heart-wrenching as they'd lose 96-94 to OKC, thir third conecutive winnable contest that got away from them. It was a narrow loss vs. the Blazers last December 15th, as Portland would escape with a 111-109 win thanks to star Damian Lillard's shot as time expired. LaMarcus Aldridge would lead the way with 24 points and 11 boards in his team's 103-99 win at New York on Sunday; keep your eyes on the Portland big man as he comes in having strung together a season-best five consecutive double-doubles. I simply can't see Detroit slowing down or keeping up with the Blazers who come into this contest averaging a whopping 108.5 points during a six game win skein away from friendly confines. It's also super important to note that Portland has given up an average of just 91.8 points in starting a perfect 9-0 vs. Eastern Conference foes this year (note, conversely that Detroit is just 1-9 vs. the West this year). Note that Portland is 7-2 ATS this year vs. poor defensive teams which allow 99-plus points per contest, while conversely (once again!), Detroit is a poor 2-6 ATS this season vs. good offensive teams which allow 99-plus points per contest. In my opinion, this line should in fact be a lot larger, play on PORTLAND.
