Progsport Basketball Prediction

We are now on track to see the Toronto Raptors play the leading roles. Repeat the feat of 2019? Why not given the quality of this squad. This one shines by its ability to undermine its opponents collectively like Barnes, Ingram and Barrett, unlike 2019 where an archi-dependence on the performances of Kawhi Leonard was required. Second in the Eastern Conference 13 wins - 5 losses, Toronto has won 13 of its last 14 games in the NBA, the last of which against title contender the Cleveland Cavaliers at the start of the week 110-99. Unlike many NBA franchises whose situation is not at best like New Orleans and Dallas in the West, or the BK Nets and Charlotte in the East and the Charlotte Hornets, we cannot talk about crisis among the Pacers, heroic last year by winning the Eastern Conference title. Coach Carlisle's credit is unlimited in the Crossroads of America and the absence of T. Haliburton alleviates the situation. Indiana 14th, 2 wins – 15 losses has only won 2 games this year. After a success against Charlotte, Indiana was recently beaten by Cleveland 120-109 and Pistons 117-122 48 hours ago. 

Obvious decline in performance for the Portland Trail Blazers 9th, 8 wins - 10 losses after a great start to the season. Some strong men who contributed to Portland's magnificent start are in the infirmary, like J.Holiday. The Oregon franchise, already impacted by Damian Lillard's withdrawal for the season, has lost 5 of its last 7 games in the NBA. Fortunately the recent form, for its part, is nicer. 2 successes in the last 3 duels played, victory at Golden State 123-127 and at Milwaukee 103-115 with only a logical defeat against OKC in the meantime. It is therefore a San Antonio 5th, 11 victories - 5 defeats deprived of V.Wembanyma who has faced his opponents for 4 matches. If in front of the Kings 123-110, then the Memphis Grizzlies 111-101 and finally the Atlanta Hawks 135-126 this had posed no problem for San Antonio, the match against the Phoenix Suns was harder to negotiate, like this 111-102 defeat when leaving Arizona.
