Game Preview

While the Boston Celtics are battling for the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, the Portland Trail Blazers are watching their Western Conference play-in berth hopes gradually evaporate.

The Trail Blazers will be trying to break out of a slump in which they have lost four consecutive games and nine of 12 when they host the Boston Celtics on Friday night.

Portland (31-38) is playing the second contest of a stretch in which they have eight of nine at home. The first result was another blow as the Trail Blazers led by as many as 16 points Tuesday night before losing to the visiting New York Knicks 123-107.
