Like many teams -- and perhaps even most -- the Trail Blazers (3-3) have gotten their 2020-21 season off to an uneven start. They’ve looked great in victories on the road versus the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers and in San Francisco versus Golden State. And at other times they’ve looked as though they’re still trying to figure things out, such as in losses to the Jazz in their season opener and in their second game in San Francisco versus the Warriors.
But with 10 of their next 12 games at home, they’ll have an opportunity to build some momentum and get in a few weeks of practices in their own gym, something that has been hard to come by with a short training camp and preseason.
