Command Analysis

Portland Trail Blazers

USA

Trail Blazers are in a terrible form right now, because a number of their players are unavailable due to coronavirus, that's where the problems started. Team is extremely close to the bottom three teams of the West, so team is in a serious crisis.

Portland lost four matches in a row, so team dropped lower in the standings. Team lost to New Orleans (97:111), Dallas (117:132), Utah (115:120) and the Lakers (106:139). As we see, team had to face some mighty opponents, but now hosts will finally have a chance for a victory at Moda Center.

Atlanta Hawks

USA

Hawks are facing the same problem as their opponent, so their position in the standings worsened. But team is closer to the play-in zone than to the bottom three teams of the East.

Atlanta managed to record a victory over Cleveland (121:118) after three consecutive defeats. We should give credit to Trae Young, who put up a double-double and was one of the best players on the floor. Nate McMillan's men don't want to slow down, so they are on their way back to the Top-10 of the East.

Atlanta put up a great performance in the previous match, but a number of team's players are still on quarantine. Portland is in a same situation, but they completely lost focus.

Bookmakers are counting on the visitors, but fans at Moda Center will surely support their team. Chauncey Billups' men will try to end the losing streak and a match against the Hawks is a great opportunity to do that.
