How the Portland Trail Blazers Got Better in January

The Portland Trail Blazers have won 7 of 11 games in the month of January, a huge improvement on their 13-22 record before that point. With franchise superstar Damian Lillard inactive for the entire stretch due to an abdominal injury, a 7-4 record is no small feat. Are we seeing signs of life in the 2021-22 Trail Blazers finally? That’s the subject of today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.

Dave,

I hate to ask it but we’re looking better lately. Much better. Is this the team we envisioned finally growing into Chauncey’s system? I know I’m going to curse them but have they turned over a new leaf?
