Harsh Caleb Love reality Blazers fans will be coming to grips with

The Portland Trail Blazers deserve a ton of credit for their recent stretch, overcoming key injuries to win four of their last five games. They've had unexpected role players step up, the most notable of which has been University of Arizona product Caleb Love.

Portland's two-way signing has turned it on as of late, averaging 17.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.5 assists over his last six games. But those who followed Love throughout his collegiate career know that streaky scoring is in his nature. The reality of the situation is that the injury-riddled Blazers are overly reliant on an up-and-down rookie guard, and it's only a matter of time before it comes back to bite them.
