For only the 2nd time in almost 3 months we witnessed the Charlotte Hornets losing back-to-back games. They’re looking to turn their luck around on Tuesday as they head into Portland for a date with the Trail Blazers, a team that’s beaten them at Moda Center 16 times in the last 17 meetings. If that fact alone isn’t motivating enough for LaMelo Ball and co. I don’t know what is. Only the San Antonio Spurs have a better offensive rating than the Hornets do over the past 15 games, defensively Charlotte is 7th during this stretch of games. Despite the two losses, they are still a formidable team with 15 wins in 20 games and 10 in their last 11 on the road.

Portland has been floating in mediocrity for most of the season, they have a firm grip on the 10th seed in the Western Conference and with the Memphis Grizzlies being 7 games back it’s fairly reasonable to assume they cannot be caught. That has eased some of the pressure off the team and has allowed their star player Deni Avdija to take additional games off in his effort to recover from a lingering back injury which has slowed him down for most of the last 2 months or so. Despite 2 wins in 3 games, the form of the Blazers isn’t all that great at the moment. They’ve won just 3 of 10 vs East opponents this season, while they are just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall.

History might not be on their side going into this game, but I feel like the Hornets are the team to beat here. They’ve covered in 9 of 11 games overall, and this is a chance for them to sweep the regular season series from the Trail Blazers for the first time since the 2007-08 season, back when they were called the Bobcats. I’m taking Charlotte here.
