Four best moments of the Portland Trail Blazers season
The Portland Trail Blazers have not had the best luck with their 2019-20 season. However, it is time to shed some light on the four best moments of the season.
The Portland Trail Blazers have had a torrid time this season. After making the Western Conference finals last year they are three and a half games outside the eighth seed with 16 games remaining.
Their season has been wrecked by injuries to key players Zach Collins, Jusuf Nurkic and Rodney Hood. They have had the usual in-season injuries that every team in the association goes through as well.
They have had some bright moments such as Damian Lillard being named to the All-Star team and also the 3-point contest. Unfortunately, the cloud which has shaded the Trail Blazers all season blocked the light with Lillard’s sustaining an injury in the game before the break.
They also had the exquisite play of CJ McCollum when Lillard was injured but unfortunately, the Blazers went 2-4 during this time and were not able to make up any ground on the Memphis Grizzlies for the eighth seed. This is despite the Grizzlies losing Jaren Jackson Jr. at this time.
This is the type of season the Portland Trail Blazers are enduring in 2019-20. However, clouds can not block out the sun forever. There have been several flashes of light in these dark times which will serve the Trail Blazers well into the future of the franchise.
Here are four of the best moments in the season which have given the Trail Blazers fans and organization some positivity.
