Despite the fact Damian Lillard is averaging a career high in assists per game, the Portland Trail Blazers are dead last in the NBA in total assists and total passes per game. The ball movement has been subpar, but what more could you do in Dame’s position?
As I sit here watching the Trail Blazers struggle against a surging Miami Heat missing their best player, it’s impossible to wrap my head around the lineup the Blazers have on the court. Other than the fact that Dame is leading the charge, Lillard’s supporting cast are way below par.
