The Blazers, who’ve been blazing a trail of disappointment this season with a 19-53 record, are packing up their woes and heading to the Hawk’s nest, a.k.a. the State Farm Arena. The Hawks, on the other hand, are doing a little better with a 32-39 record, but let’s not start throwing confetti just yet. The action kicks off at 7:30 PM EST, so make sure your beer is cold and your fantasy lineup is set. The Blazers are trailing in the West, a whopping 32 games back, while the Hawks are perched a tad closer to the top in the East, only 10 games back. Betting lines?

The Hawks are riding high after pecking the Celtics 120-118, while the Blazers are still licking their wounds from a 92-110 smackdown by the Rockets. So, will the Blazers burn brighter tonight, or will the Hawks swoop in for another victory? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure, it’s gonna be a game of ‘Blaze and Prey’!
