The Portland Trail Blazers ended their six-game road trip exactly like they started it—by blowing out an inferior opponent. Portland pulverized the Cleveland Cavaliers by a final score of 141-105 on Wednesday, ending their trek with a sterling 5-1 record. The win also pulled the team within a half-game of the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks for fifth in the Western Conference standings.
Damian Lillard was terrific, scoring 32 points on 10-17 shooting with nine assists, but the real heroes for the Blazers were their second unit—who combined for a mind-boggling 70 points in the effort, led by the likes of Enes Kanter and Carmelo Anthony.
