Assuming no injuries. If anything, this show how vulnerable the Blazers are. Blazers have had Lillard and Aldridge (their big 2) playing in the last 3 home games and haven't been able to win any of those games. If losing role players to injuries causes this, Blazers can't afford to lose a their major players or it could be worse than this.
But POR did lose major players. Some may only call Batum a role player but he plays a bigger role then that on our team.
Certainly. This team was already bad at defense - but without Batum and Matthews, we've lost 2 of our 3 "best" defenders (LA being the other). It's hard to remember how good this team has looked at times given the crap we've seen the last few weeks, but I just keep picturing the blowout in San Antonio.
Bullshit, The only thing this losing streak is showing is that the front office is shutting it down. If these where big games that really meant something the Blazers entire roster could be playing just fine.
