The Portland Trail Blazers entered the season’s third week on a low note, having lost to the Wizards and Heat last week, while beating the Magic, thanks to one Damian Lillard. They started off this week with a bang, defeating the Pacers last night in the penultimate game of the year’s first road trip. They also enter the week still riding high in the eyes of national sportswriters, cracking the top 10 in both ESPN and CBS Sports’ NBA power rankings, while sitting just outside that mark in the eyes of Sports Illustrated.
