The Portland Trail Blazers faced the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night just one win shy of an nearly-incomprehensible 5-1 late-season road trip. With opponents like the Brooklyn Nets and Boston Celtics already vanquished, the Cavaliers were hardly a threat on paper. But Portland has a way of making easy games hard, so nothing was guaranteed.
As it turned out, the New Look Blazers took the floor tonight, leaving behind their wayward ways. Instead of playing down to the level of their competition, Portland came out strong and shored up their few weaknesses as the game progressed. The result was an easy 141-105 victory and the trophy for Bestest Turn-Around in an NBA Season for 2020-21.

On this week’s episode of the Blazer’s Edge podcast, host Danny Marang answers listener questions following the the Portland Trail Blazers’ loss to the short-handed Charlotte Hornets. Marang touches on the overall “vibe” of the team right now, potential internal struggles, how hot is Coach Terry Stotts’ seat, and how the Blazers can retain Norman Powell in the offseason. Of course, it wouldn’t be a complete Marang-infused podcast without a little CJ McCollum trade talk.
