The Blazers know how to finish. They have continuity and a true killer in Lillard. The Lakers are piecing things together. We all knew after Magic pieced this roster together that things would take time. I would like to see BI come off the bench and Josh Hart start at the 2. It just makes a lot more sense. All the youngsters are figuring out consistency, which is to be expected.
HAVING SAID THAT, this Western Conference is TOUGH and we need W's and a long winning streak will be necessary at some point. I'm representing tomorrow night, so a small 3 game winning streak would be nice. It will be tough against the Raptors, especially if Kawhi plays and makes LeBron's life miserable for one night.
