Should Fans Doubt Blazers’ Injury Report?

After a crazy week with four wild games and two wins for the Portland Trail Blazers, let’s tackle a few questions for the mailbag.

Our commenter CaptainMan asked the question on everyone’s mind while looking at the Blazers’ recent injury reports:

Are these injuries real or are they just tanking and trying to get as many guaranteed losses as possible?

This question was not only inevitable, it’s deserved. The Trail Blazers has lost the benefit of the doubt, spending two consecutive seasons scratching names off the roster in the Spring like it’s their eyes during Pacific Northwest allergy season.
