LiontipsPhoenix Suns - Portland Blazers: betting tip (kef 1.72) and bets on the NBA match
Command Analysis
Current form
The Suns rolled into the play-in at such a speed that it seems too late to slow down. On April 13 in Oklahoma, they didn't just win — they staged a master class, dismantling the Thunder with a score of 135-103. And this was the case when the numbers only partially convey what is happening on the floor. From the first minutes, the Suns set the tone — 37:19 in the opening quarter, and then they didn't look back. The team moved the ball easily, freely, without unnecessary fuss. 55% from the game, almost 50% from beyond the arc is not just accuracy, it is an indicator of confidence. 28 assists in 11 losses is almost a textbook on offensive basketball. It's not just the usual stars who have become leaders. Ryan Dunn scored 20 points, Jamarre Bouye scored 27, and Kobe Brea added 20 more from the bench. The result is 45-37 and the seventh place in the West.
Current form
Portland also did not stay away and closed the regular season with a 122-110 victory over Sacramento. But if Phoenix looked like a complete machine, then the Blazers looked more like a mood team. The match started exactly at 33:33, and it seemed that an equal fight was waiting for us. But in the second quarter, Portland produced a real flurry — 44:24. It was this segment that became decisive. Then the team simply held the advantage they had gained, not allowing the Kings to approach. The regular season ended with a 42-40 balance and the eighth place in the West.
Tip and bets
Phoenix looks like the favorite — and this is not just an opinion, but the logic of the game. The team is able to get involved from the first minute and keep up the pace. Defeating Thunder is not an accident, but an indication that Sanz's attack is on fire right now. And when you have several players capable of taking the initiative at once, the opponent's defense becomes too crowded. Portland has its own trump cards — energy, quick jerks, the ability to catch a wave. But the problem is that such waves rarely last the entire match. One failure and a Phoenix—level opponent won't let you go.
Prediction — Phoenix wins with a handicap of (-1.5) points in 1.72
