After a three-game winning streak, the Portland Trail Blazers came crashing back to earth tonight against the Dallas Mavericks, losing 130-110 in a game that was over soon after the half. Damian Lillard scored 24 in the loss, inching closer to Clyde Drexler on the Trail Blazers franchise scoring list. Lillard’s buckets were about the only pretty thing in what became an ugly evening in Texas.
