With 8 games lefts to play in POR's season, they have the 7-8 seed essentially locked up. For POR it is "get healthy and rested up for a playoff run" time of year. There aren't any obvious trends with this matchup and with that being said, they'll beat the NYK's by 6-7 points and easily come short of covering the spread.
The NYK are cleaning house after the season's end so most of these players are playing for a contract next season. The Knicks should put forth a decent effort while (IMO) the Blazers will rely on their talent to squeak by NY and maintain their 7th spot in the West.
