Boom Outsider:
Portland 1-10 ($2.84) at Oklahoma City
This is a matchup that won’t attract a lot of attention with the Trailblazers comfortable road favourites. The Thunder have enough to keep this close. They have lost by single digits in seven of their last nine losses. Portland have won four of their last five by 10 or fewer when claiming the W.

Boom Total:
Over 231.5 Houston @ Golden State ($1.92)
Houston have been a defensive mess conceding 125-plus in their last two and 124-plus in six of their last 10. That is a bad mix against a Warriors team that has posted 124-plus in two of their last three including 130 against defensive leaders Dallas. The Warriors have gone over in 10 of 14 off a win and 7 of 10 on the road. The over is 21-8 in Rockets games overall.
