With the start of the 2021-22 NBA Season less than two weeks away, predictions on the fate of the 30 NBA franchises are coming on strong. Today David Thorpe of TrueHoop weighed in on the chances of each team, including the Portland Trail Blazers.
The coach/pundit/writer seemed to want to be hopeful, but after scanning Portland’s first preseason game, he didn’t see enough to change the Blazers’ fate. He posited that a mid-season trade of some type might be the only way forward, with the only questions being who gets moved and why.
