Result:
WIN

The Portland Trailblazers will have four starters in the lineup that have played all 82 regular season games. The health of the team all season long has been instrumental in their surge forward. The Los Angeles Clippers have finished the season strong, but once again, they lose Blake Griffin with a one game suspension, as he committed his 16th technical foul of the season in their last game. The Clippers already have a franchise record for wins, and can make the #2 seed with a win and an Oklahoma City loss. I don't see it happening without Griffin on the road where they have not been nearly as good. Go with Portland.
