The Portland Trail Blazers are having a fine season with a 21-16 record, a spot in the Western Conference Playoffs bracket, and another All-NBA season from point guard Damian Lillard all in hand.

You knew this one already, but to recap:
- The entire world is pivoting towards the three-point shot.
- The Blazers aren’t defending those shots well.
