The Portland Trail Blazers have struggled in recent weeks, though their last roadtrip turned out much better than expected, with the team returning home with a 5-1 record. Despite that success, if the postseason play-in tournament were held today, the Blazers would be participating. As the seventh in the current standings, they would face the Memphis Grizzlies to win a spot in the postseason, according to Ben Couch of NBA.com.
