The Blazers got trounced, smashed, blown away, humbled, overpowered, bested, discombobulated, routed, outplayed — really enjoying my new thesaurus — by the Milwaukee Bucks last night, and the Wizards are flying high after a surprise win over the supposedly contending Brooklyn Nets on Sunday. Portland needs to wipe the memory of the Fiserv Forum free-for-all and get back on track in the nation’s capital, because no one wants to see a cocky, upbeat Russell Westbrook for too long.
This game was only scheduled last week following a number of Wizards games previously being postponed due to the coronavirus.
