The Trail Blazers snapped a five-game losing streak on Friday, but they still sit six games below .500 on the season. Due to injuries and less-than-ideal performances, Portland’s record is a far cry from the optimistic preseason projections.
Due to their changing in fortunes, Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix suggested that the Blazers should explore a big move prior to the trade deadline. After briefly framing his case, Mannix touched on the much-discussed idea of a move that would bring Kevin Love to Portland.
Portland is in a nosedive, and if they want to salvage this season, the front office needs to be bold.
