PORTLAND -- The Portland Trail Blazers did a poor job of defending the three-point line Saturday night versus the reigning NBA championship Milwaukee Bucks. That’s about all you need to know.
Milwaukee shot 46 percent from three, a percentage helped by a defense that left shooters open time and time again, to defeat the Trail Blazers 137-108 in front of a sellout crowd of 19,393 Saturday night at Moda Center.
"This team, they put you in some tough spots because they've got so many three-point shooters all around the floor," said Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups.
