Portland Trail Blazers vs Golden State Warriors Prediction: The Warriors look to end with a win

NBA is in its Postseason window and we are on the last day of the Regular Season when various teams will rest their key players. But for some teams, the last day holds a lot of value as playoff spots. In this game, a relatively full-strength Golden State Warriors is going to take on the Portland Trail Blazers.

Portland Trail Blazers

The Trail Blazers will finish this season on another low note4. The team once again was able to get close to 40 wins despite Damian Lillard having averaged over 30 points. The team did have some spectacular performances from Jerami Grant and Anfernee Simons, both of them were injured during the second half of the season which took the steam out of the squad. Once again, defensive issues plagued the Trail Blazers and the management needs a rethink how to build around Damian. 

Golden State Warriors

The Warriors will need one more win to seal the sixth spot in the West which will set up a match-up against the Sacramento Kings. Considering their away-from-home struggles, they will be in for a tough challenge against Sacramento which will be a series that they will have to start away from home. The Kings and the Warriors have a liken for the high-scorers but the Kings have just a bit more depth, not that much but just a bit. How will the Warriors survive against the Kings? Mind you, they do have a big chance and this is a more favorable match-up than the Suns one.

Expert Betting Tips

The Warriors will be in for a mandatory win here for a top-six spot. The Blazers have nothing to lose and they were long ago disqualified from the Play-in tournament. I back the Warriors to win big here.
