The Portland Trail Blazers made it all the way to overtime before losing on Tuesday night. Maybe that's progress? It was an entertaining but in the end disheartening loss to the Phoenix Suns, 111-107, at the Moda Center. It was Portland's sixth straight loss and ninth in its last ten games. It really was fun at least until it really wasn't. Plus, Damian Lillard delivered a message to his teammates about resiliency at practice on Monday. There's a lot to unpack about the point guard's brand of stubborn optimism. And finally it's time to question which direction the Blazers should as trade season approaches in the NBA.
