10 Thoughts vs. Memphis 3/16

Not sure what it is about this 5 game road trip, but something doesn’t feel quite right. At a time when “your” Portland Trail Blazers cannot afford to go on any sort of a losing streak, they head into tonight off of one of the worst losses of the season which also happened to be the 1st game of a 5 game road trip. And this trip isn’t getting any easier from here out either, people. Time to show the world just how much this team is improved and matured.
