They still have a long way to go. Lakers. Spurs. Rockets. And even the Thunder. 

But the Blazers are at least making their way into the discussion. 

Dame has played on some good teams for the Trail Blazers but this could be the best. Does Lillard end his NBA Finals drought? 

Brogan discusses the Portland Trail Blazers' impressive back to back wins over the Oklahoma City Thunder, while highlighting the strong duo of Damian Lillard and Deni Avdija. Take a look at the next stretch of the schedule, which includes six consecutive road battles.

Two straight wins against the OKC Thunder have made me a believer. That's pretty impressive to knock off one of the best teams in the NBA on consecutive nights. 

After five games as a starter, Scoot was back on the bench. He finished with 11 points and four rebounds in Tuesday's win against OKC. Not bad. 

Facing Oklahoma City Thunder should provide a good indicator of what to expect from the Trail Blazers the rest of the season. Buckle up. 

He still has lots of time to develop. I know the Trail Blazers have Ja Morant and Damian Lillard but Henderson is a solid basketball player. 

It's a shame that injuries ended his career too soon. He was awesome 

It sure seems that way. This team is arguably playing the best basketball in the NBA. Things should only get better. 

Discuss the Portland Trail Blazers' hot start to the 2026 season that currently has them in first place in the Western Conference. Brogan also breaks down the next stretch of games for Portland, which should be a strong test with games against the Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs, and two against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
