KEY GAME INFORMATION
PORTLAND: GUARDS: DAMIAN LILLARD is for real, an elite shooter and a natural running the pick-and-roll. Though we're a little worried about what will happen if pick-and-pop partner LaMarcus Aldridge is dealt sometime this season . . . WESLEY MATTHEWS will be battling for playing time with Portland loading up on wings . . . C.J. MCCOLLUM can play either guard spot, but primarily he's a scorer and a potentially elite shooter. He is, however, out a few months with a foot fracture. . . MO WILLIAMS will provide the Blazers with a veteran guard presence who is more than capable of lighting it up on any given night. He is, however, a major defensive liability'If he straightens out his jumper, WILL BARTON could end up being a solid second-unit player . . . EARL WATSON gives them a much more reliable back-up point guard than Ronnie Price was . . . Sharpshooter ALLEN CRABBE will likely find himself in the D-League early on. FORWARDS: LAMARCUS ALDRIDGE's name will be in trade rumors all season, but it won't affect his role as this team's No. 1 option . . . NICOLAS BATUM will continue to do a little bit of everything, playing point forward to allow Lillard to play off the ball at times, and serving as a dangerous three-point shooter . . . DORELL WRIGHT can lock opponents down when he wants to. He'll push Wesley Matthews for minutes . . . Portland will be the next team to try to squeeze production out of 2012 No. 5 pick THOMAS ROBINSON. After Sacramento and Houston both gave up on him almost immediately, Robinson in danger of falling off the NBA map . . . VICTOR CLAVER provides some energy as a second-unit bit player . . . JOEL FREELAND has six fouls to give. CENTERS: ROBIN LOPEZ will be a better fit alongside Aldridge than J.J. Hickson was. Lopez isn't skilled, but he can take some defensive responsibilities away from Aldridge . . . MEYERS LEONARD is, as expected, still a work in progress. He's enormous and there's some raw talent, but he too often looks lost.
BROOKLYN: GUARDS: DERON WILLIAMS will surely take on more of a distributor role this year, but he's still this team's best option from three-point range, as well . . . JOE JOHNSON started to break down last season, so along with fewer shots (with the upgrade to the rest of the roster), he figures to play fewer regular-season minutes as well . . . JASON TERRY is clearly in the decline phase of his career, but is still the top scoring option among Brooklyn's second unit . . . ALAN ANDERSON gives them another shooter off the bench . . . SHAUN LIVINGSTON steps into the back-up point guard spot vacated by C.J. Watson. The injury-prone vet will be one of the more rarely used back-up PGs . . . TYSHAWN TAYLOR will be a non-factor. FORWARDS: PAUL PIERCE still has something left in the tank. While his athleticism is fading, he's still a cagey scorer who can also play some point forward to set up Williams . . . ANDREI KIRILENKO will be a Swiss army knife sixth man and should see plenty of starts as new head coach Jason Kidd rotates which veterans rest . . . REGGIE EVANS was retained for his rebounding ability and willingness to look ridiculous while flopping . . . ANDRAY BLATCHE will continue to settle in as a second-unit big. He's a name to remember for the future, as Kevin Garnett doesn't have much left in the tank . . . MIRZA TELETOVIC will be a seldom-used option as a stretch four . . . TORNIKE SHENGELIA is still years away from contributing, and the influx of veterans will further delay his development. CENTERS: Last year did a lot to assuage durability concerns for BROOK LOPEZ. He's highly skilled, and he may be forced to grab more rebounds now that Reggie Evans is on the second unit . . . KEVIN GARNETT will start at power forward. He's still an effective pick-and-pop shooter and pick-and-roll defender, but he'll have to rest often during the regular season . . . MASON PLUMLEE is in no position to help this season.

*Trail Blazers-Nets Preview* ============================

By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer

Portland (7-2) at Brooklyn (3-6), 7:30 p.m. EDT

Success from 3-point range is a big reason why the Portland Trail Blazers have been a pleasant surprise this season.

It's also put them on the verge of their longest winning streak in six years.

The Trail Blazers look to continue their impressive long-range shooting and post a seventh straight win Monday night against the potentially short-handed Brooklyn Nets.

It may be early, but Portland (8-2) is unexpectedly atop the Northwest Division after missing the playoffs for two straight seasons.

Improvement from beyond the arc is spurring the strong start.

The Trail Blazers made 35.3 percent from 3-point range while averaging 97.5 points in 2012-13, and they're shooting 10.5 percent better and scoring 7.1 more points so far this season.

Portland has been even better from long distance lately, hitting 46.4 percent during the six-game run.

The Blazers haven't won seven in a row since a 13-game run Dec. 3-30, 2007.

The current streak seemed in jeopardy Sunday after squandering a 17-point lead in regulation, but they made three of their season-high 15 3s in overtime to beat Toronto 118-110.

"This wasn't the first time we have done it," said forward Nicolas Batum, who had a season-high 24 points while making 5 of 8 from behind the arc. "Four or five times in a row we've had a good lead and had to close out the game and the other team came back. It paid off because we won in overtime and when you are up 15, 18 points with seven minutes to go, we have to close out the game."

LaMarcus Aldridge continues to do his part, leading the team with 22.2 points per game and 9.3 rebounds - 12.2 over the last five contests. The forward had 25 points and 11 rebounds Sunday, two days after getting 27 and 12, respectively, in a 109-96 win at Boston to open this four-game Eastern Conference road trip.

The Blazers, who visit last-place Milwaukee on Wednesday, may have a chance at an unbeaten trip since the Nets (3-6) are dealing with injuries to four of their five starters.

It's unclear if they'll have Deron Williams (ankle), Brook Lopez (ankle), Paul Pierce (groin) and Kevin Garnett (ankle) available, leaving Joe Johnson as the only healthy regular starter.

That was the scenario Saturday, when Brooklyn lost for the fourth time in five games, falling 110-103 on the road to the Los Angeles Clippers.

"Those guys that suited up definitely gave me everything they had," first-year coach Jason Kidd said. "We just came up short, but the effort was there with the 10 guys that we had and we put ourselves in a position to win a game on the road against a very talented team."

Having at least Lopez back would certainly help. The center leads the Nets with 20.5 points, 6.5 boards and 2.8 blocks, and he's averaging 22.7 over his last seven meetings with the Trail Blazers.

Lopez scored 28 points in a 111-93 win at Portland on March 27.

If he's unable to play, then Kidd will likely turn to Andray Blatche, who had a season-high 19 points with eight rebounds against the Clippers in his first start of the season.

He totaled 18 points off the bench over the three previous games.
