The Portland Trail Blazers followed up a solid 4-0 homestand with an incredibly disappointing 125-121 loss to the Sacramento Kings. The opportunity to put that game firmly in the rearview mirror won’t come easy as they travel to San Francisco to face arguably the best team in the NBA right now in the Golden State Warriors.
The Golden State Warriors are on fire. Winners of their last five and, well, 16 of their last 18, the Warriors are flying high with the prospect of getting even better when Klay Thompson returns. This isn’t exactly the team the Blazers want to be facing right now, but there is an upside.
