The Portland Trail Blazers are back home for six games at Moda Center starting Wednesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The three-game road trip the Blazers just finished up was actually fairly successful. On Friday and Saturday, the Blazers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies, and on Monday, Portland turned in a very respectable performance against one of the best teams in the West, the Minnesota Timberwolves. In the end Portland lost 119-114, but a great game from Anfernee Simons and quality play from multiple youngsters made the loss pretty palatable for most Blazers fans.
The Thunder find themselves in a duel for the best record in the West with the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Denver Nuggets, but they are losers of two of their last three.
