The well-rested Portland Trail Blazers desperately sought a win Sunday night at home, after losing seven of their last eight games. But despite the return of Damian Lillard, the Blazers fell apart down the stretch, losing 116-111.
This was a game between the 9th and 10th teams in the West, and unfortunately looked every bit of it.
All About Chemistry. The Blazers made a long-debated change to their starting lineup, as Larry Nance Jr replaced Robert Covington. The hope was that it would bring a spark; however the chemistry just wasn’t there, as the team struggled at the start of both the first and third quarters.
