After a 2-2 week without Damian Lillard in which the Trail Blazers lost games to the Atlanta Hawks and New Orleans Pelicans -- followed up by wins over the Cleveland Cavaliers and Sacramento Kings -- Portland remains fairly stable in a number of Week 9 NBA power rankings.
In four games last week, the Blazers shot 42 percent from the field (No. 26 in the league over that stretch), 29 percent from deep (No. 27), dished 21.8 assists per game (No. 18), averaged 15 turnovers (No. 20) and scored 97.3 points a night (No. 22). They did lead the league in rebounds per game over the last week, however, pulling in 52.
