Ohio vs Portland Pick Analysis
This is a game the Bobcats would like to be able to win, but it will actually end up losing as the second chance shots are not going to happen. What else will hurt the Bobcats chances of getting wins is the fact that the Portland team has a better defense and will take advantage of the Bobcats offensive prowess rivaling what the Pilots defense gives up. However, Portland will see their offense come to life as the Bobcats defense is downright horrible. Final Score Prediction, Portland Pilots win 80-76.
