Everybody from here to the moon understands that the Portland Trail Blazers have had a tough year with injuries. Jusuf Nurkic has been out since last March. Zach Collins, Rodney Hood, and a host of others followed as the season progressed. Injuries have become a one-stop-shopping explanation for Portland’s losing record this season, and fairly so. But how far does that explanation hold? Where would the Blazers be with good health? Do injuries explain everything significantly wrong with the team? That’s the topic of today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.
Dave,
I hear you evaluating our team.
