Command Analysis

Portland Trail Blazers

USA

It will be hard for Portland to get a play-off spot in the current season, the Trail Blazers are in a terrible form right now. Oregon team suffered way too many defeats recently. Chauncey Billups' men secured their most recent victory ten days ago, when they beat Detroit (110:104) on away.

After a victory over the Pistons, Portland suffered four consecutive defeats. Oregon team lost to New Orleans (110:127) and New York (107:123) in latest matches. Hosts are currently three victories behind the play-off zone.

Boston Celtics

USA

Boston are still chasing the top position in the East, but Joe Mazzulla's men are still unable to gain consistency. Celtics recently suffered an unexplainable defeat to Houston (109:111). Matches like this are keeping the Massachussets team at the 2nd position in the Eastern conference.

Two days ago, Boston managed to get a victory. Celtics just narrowly beat the Minnesota Timberwolves (102:104). Overall, Celtics were far from perfect in recent games.
