|
| |  | MILWAUKEE: GUARDS: BRANDON KNIGHT slides into Brandon Jennings' point guard slot, but he's a much different player. Knight hasn't proven capable of running the point, and may eventually settle in as an undersized shooter . . . O.J. MAYO will be the focal point of this offense. He should build on his career-best year in Dallas . . . GARY NEAL will give them some instant offense as a sixth man . . . LUKE RIDNOUR provides Knight insurance, and the ability to play either guard spot. He should fit nicely alongside Mayo for stretches . . . KHRIS MIDDLETON could crack the rotation as a capable defender with upside as a shooter . . . Second-rounder NATE WOLTERS must knock down jumpers if he's going to get off the bench. FORWARDS: ERSAN ILYASOVA will once again have to earn his starter's minutes, as the Bucks have loaded up on quality frontcourt depth. He provides more offense than anyone else on the front line . . . CARON BUTLER should start at small forward for this team after freeing himself before ever having to play in Phoenix . . . CARLOS DELFINO will play a key role scoring off the bench. He's a streaky long-range gunner, but defends well enough to stay on the court . . . JOHN HENSON is on the verge of a breakout as an elite rebounder and shot-blocker. He's still a bit behind offensively, which could hold him back in a crowded post rotation . . . GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO was the most intriguing project in a weak draft, but the teenager is nowhere near ready for NBA action. He'll likely see time in the D-League until the second half of the season. CENTERS: We've loved LARRY SANDERS for years, and last year showed why. He's a Defensive POY candidate with a budding offensive game . . . ZAZA PACHULIA reunites with head coach Larry Drew as muscle off the bench . . . EKPE UDOH is likely on the outside looking in for this rotation. | | 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. |

*Bucks-Trail Blazers Preview* =============================
By ELI KABERON STATS Writer
Milwaukee (13-54) at Portland (43-24), 10:00 p.m. EDT
The Portland Trail Blazers thought returning home after a rough road trip would help them return to their winning ways, but a stunning defeat in the opener of a three-game homestand added to their misery.
Portland looks to get back on track Tuesday night when it hosts the Milwaukee Bucks, who own the worst record in the NBA but have done well against the Blazers recently.
The Trail Blazers (43-24) have dropped five of six, with the first four losses coming on their recent five-game trip. They hosted Golden State on Sunday but blew an 18-point lead in 113-112 loss, their second in the past three games in Portland.
Playing without All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge for the second consecutive contest because of a lower back contusion, the Blazers allowed a season-high 69 second-half points as the Warriors shot 60.0 percent from 3-point range in the fourth quarter.
Damian Lillard led Portland with 26 points and Nicolas Batum added 23 and 14 rebounds, but Batum missed a free throw with 5.8 seconds remaining that would have tied the game.
"Every loss (stinks). Every loss hurts - even more so now coming off the disappointing road trip that we had," guard Wesley Matthews said. "To come back and to get up 18 against a tough team that's playing desperate and right behind us in the standings, it's upsetting. But it's the NBA, we have to bounce back. We have two more at home before we go off on another road trip."
Aldridge's status is uncertain, though he seems unlikely to play Tuesday after just recently starting to walk without crutches.
Portland, in fifth place in the Western Conference, has allowed 108.2 points and 47.3 percent shooting during its 1-5 stretch.
The Bucks (13-54) appear to present the perfect opportunity for the Trail Blazers to get back on track defensively. Milwaukee is among the worst offensive teams in the league, scoring 94.5 points per game.
The Bucks lost their fourth in a row Sunday, 101-92 at home to Charlotte. Brandon Knight had 21 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, but the Bobcats shot 57.4 percent, second highest for a Milwaukee opponent this season.
"We just didn't get stops," Knight said. "We struggled to get stops in the fourth quarter and they were able to stretch the lead out. We also didn't make shots, but you have to give yourself a chance to win by getting stops in the fourth quarter, consecutive stops."
Milwaukee is 1-10 on the road against Western Conference foes, but it's won two straight in Portland, the latest a 113-104 victory Jan. 19, 2013. The Bucks had won four in a row in the series before losing 91-82 in the most recent matchup Nov. 20.
