|
| | | PORTLAND: LAST SEASON: 53-29, lost 4-0 to Golden State in the Western Conference finals.
COACH: Terry Stotts (eighth season with Trail Blazers, 325-249; 12th season overall, 440-417).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Damian Lillard (25.8 ppg), G CJ McCollum (21.0), F Rodney Hood (11.2), F Zach Collins (8.6), C Hassan Whiteside (12.3 with Miami).
KEY LOSSES: F Al-Farouq Aminu, F Evan Turner, F Maurice Harkless, C Meyers Leonard.
KEY ADDITIONS: Whiteside, C Pau Gasol, F Anthony Tolliver, G Kent Bazemore.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: The Blazers will count on Whiteside at center while Jusuf Nurkic recovers from a broken leg he suffered during a game in March. Nurkic probably won't return until January, at the earliest. The Blazers added some insurance at the position by signing Pau Gasol, who is also making his way back from surgery. Portland will look to Zach Collins to take the next step in his third season in the league. Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum form one of the best backcourt duos in the league.
OUTLOOK: In the loaded Western Conference, the revamped Trail Blazers, with a total of seven new players, will have to come together sooner rather than later. A key will be how Whiteside gels with the rest of the team. The 7-footer was acquired in a trade with the Miami, where his production fell off last season after three strong seasons. The Blazers will again emphasize defensive improvement going into the season, something Stotts has routinely preached each fall camp. Lillard signed a supermax extension in the offseason, and appears to be a Blazer for the long haul. Expectations are high for Portland after making the Western Conference finals last season, and players say they're not going to be satisfied with simply making the playoffs, the goal now is to go deep into the postseason. | | ATLANTA: LAST SEASON: 29-53, missed playoffs.
COACH: Lloyd Pierce (second season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Trae Young (19.1 ppg, 8.1 apg), G Kevin Huerter (9.7 ppg), F De'Andre Hunter (No. 5 overall pick), F John Collins (19.5 ppg, 9.8 rpg), C Damian Jones (5.4 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: C Dewayne Dedmon, G Kent Bazemore, F Omari Spellman
KEY ADDITIONS: Hunter, Jones, F Cam Reddish, F Jabari Parker, G Evan Turner, G Allen Crabbe, F Chandler Parsons, C Bruno Fernando.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Young and Collins are two of the NBA's top young players, while Huerter shows plenty of promise, so the key to this season will be how well they mesh with two more first-round picks, Hunter and No. 10 choice Reddish. Hunter figures to start right away, while Reddish will get plenty of playing time off the bench. Also keep an eye on Parker, the No. 2 overall pick in 2014 by the Milwaukee Bucks. While he has yet to develop into the star everyone expected, Parker is still just 24 years old and has averaged 15.1 points per game over his five-year career. The Hawks, who are focused on player development, hope they can flush out Parker's game. Finally, the Hawks will send out 42-year-old Vince Carter for his record 22nd ' and final ' season in the NBA. Carter showed last season he's still got game, but he won't get as many minutes in his last hurrah as he serves more of a coach-mentor role to all the young players.
OUTLOOK: The Hawks showed promise in Pierce's first season but this franchise is still in the midst of a major rebuilding job. Atlanta might have an outside shot at slipping into the playoffs, but would probably be better off getting another crack at the draft lottery. General manager Travis Schlenk has been acquiring over-priced players that other teams wanted to get off the books. Parsons ($25.1 million), Turner ($18.6 million) and Crabbe ($18.5 million) are in the final year of their contracts, which means 2020 is the year to really start paying attention to the Hawks. |
| | Trail Blazers won't have it easy against host Hawks
The Portland Trail Blazers can't afford to lose games to the teams in the league's bottom echelon if they want to remain in contention for the playoffs in the Western Conference. But they aren't likely to get a light touch on Saturday when they make their only visit of the season to Atlanta. The Hawks have won only 18 games, one more than Eastern Conference cellar dwellers New York and Cleveland. However, Atlanta has emerged as a competitive team on its home court. The Hawks have won seven of their last nine games at home, which includes wins over playoff teams Philadelphia and Miami. The Hawks hammered the Brooklyn Nets 141-118 on Friday night to give them some momentum into the second half of a back-to-back. They have yet to win both ends of a back-to-back this season, going 0-3 in the second game when they've won the first night. "We've all been putting in a ton of work in practice, extra work on our jump shots and defense," Atlanta rookie Cam Reddish said. "But to see our shots go down was a great feeling." Reddish had a career-high 26 points on Friday and has continued to develop as an offensive threat. John Collins scored 33 points with 13 rebounds, and Trae Young had 22 points and 14 assists. The lopsided win allowed Atlanta coach Lloyd Pierce the luxury of limiting Young only 31 minutes. "It was a real example of all our guys trending in the right direction," Pierce said. "To put together that type of win was really encouraging to see." Portland comes into the game in 10th place in the Western Conference. The Trail Blazers have won only three of their last 10 games and trail Memphis by 2 1/2 games in the quest for the final playoff spot. Portland dropped a 106-100 decision to the Indiana Pacers on Thursday, the first stop on a three-game road trip. "That was a tough loss for us, but we fought," Portland's Carmelo Anthony said. "The first game on a road trip is always important, but we still have a chance to go get two more on this road trip, so that's what we're looking forward to." "We already understand the position we're in," Trevor Ariza added. "I think we've just got to figure it out. It sounds easy, but it's not. We have the personnel in here to do it. We've got to continue to stay confident, stay together and chip away." C.J. McCollum, who scored 28 in the loss to Indiana, averages 22 points per game. Anthony continues his remarkable comeback season and averages 15.5 points and 6.4 rebounds. Hassan Whiteside averages 15.9 points and 14.2 rebounds. Damian Lillard, who averages a team-leading 29.5 points, has missed the last four games with a right groin injury, but could return before the end of the road trip. Portland has won four consecutive games against the Hawks dating back to Jan. 5, 2018. The Blazers won the first game in the season series 124-113 on Nov. 10. Lillard scored 30 points in the first meeting, while Young had 35 points and 10 assists in the first meeting. --Field Level Media |
