The Portland Trail Blazers, fielding a squad of players who are bound to become the answer to an obscure future trivia question, were utterly helpless against the healthy and battle-tested Utah Jazz, on Wednesday night, getting blown out (and then some) on the road, 123-85.
The Blazers were heavy underdogs to say the least. Utah came into the contest as near-20-point favorites and the Jazz had no problem covering that spread, almost doing so in the first quarter.
Portland has now lost 6 games in a row since the All-Star break, The team continues to forgo the scenic route and take the expressway straight down to the bottom of the Western Conference standings.
