Good morning, Rip City! What’s going on out there in Trail Blazers land?
It’s been a couple days since Portland wilted in the fourth quarter against the Cleveland Cavaliers. What was an entertaining and competitive game got out of hand late; the Cavs outscored the Blazers by 20 points in the second half.
In the Trail Blazers’ defense, they were playing the second game of a back-to-back. And it was their third road game in four nights. They finished the road trip at 1-2.
No More Excuses
But enough with the excuses.
