Why Losing Game 3 Was an Anomaly for the Portland Trail Blazers

The Portland Trail Blazers lost game three on Friday night 108-120. The game was actually closer than the final score, but the Oklahoma City Thunder went on a run in the final couple of minutes.

After a loss, you look at your gameplan and what needs to be fixed. However, there was not a lot Portland did wrong in my opinion. They could have been sharper in the first half, and they struggled to get stops on defense in crunch time. That is about it.

Defensively, the Blazers were playing the right way, as well. Russell Westbrook and Dennis Schroder were shooting jumpers.
