Portland Trail Blazers
Biggest Weakness: Strangers On The Court
The Trail Blazers are basically starting over, as their entire starting unit from a year ago has moved on except for face of the franchise – Damion Lillard.
Now Lillard will have to lead a group of strangers with newcomers like Al-Farouq Aminu, Gerald Henderson, Ed Davis and Mason Plumlee. There are still stay-overs like CJ McCollum, Meyers Leonard and Dorell Wright, but a few of them were reserves and didn’t get the playing time with Lillard.
The Blazers will be an interesting team to watch this season as they try to fit all the new pieces together.
