The Blazers have lost four of their last six games and with games against the Thunder and Spurs on the schedule next, don’t be surprised to see their recent slump lingers for another week. Their schedule eases up towards the end of this week, with games against the Pelicans and Mavs, but this team needs to do whatever it can to avoid a first round matchup against the Warriors or Spurs.
At least against the Thunder, the Blazers would have enough fire power to keep things interesting, mostly because OKC really struggles on the defensive end.
