With the trade deadline rapidly approaching, the Portland Trail Blazers must decide whether to hold ‘em or fold ‘em.
At 21-22, the Blazers currently sit in 9th place in the Western Conference. A pair of wins against the Dallas Mavericks over the weekend, put them back in the playoff picture in the extremely tight standings. However, the team can’t get too comfortable with just 0.5-game separating it from teams outside the playoff picture.
The Blazers were one of the loudest teams at the trade deadline last season, sending CJ McCollum to the New Orleans Pelicans and Norman Powell and Robert Covington to the Los Angeles Clippers.
