CLEVELAND -- The Portland Trail Blazers held shootaround Wednesday morning at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in preparation for their contest versus the Cavaliers, the last game of a three-game road trip, Wednesday night in Cleveland. Some notes from shootaround...
• At 4-4, the Cavaliers have been one of the surprise teams in the first few weeks of what has proven to be an unpredictable start to the NBA regular season. After starting the year with losses to the Grizzlies and Hornets, the Cavs notched three-straight quality wins versus the Hawks, Nuggets and Clippers. And most recently the best the Hornets, a team that defeated the Trail Blazers in the first game of the trip, Monday night.
