When LaMarcus Aldridge bolted over the summer in free agency to try and win a title with the San Antonio Spurs.....I thought the Portland Trail Blazers were in for ANOTHER REBUILDING PROJECT.
Well, Mr. Lilliard has had other ideas. Now, the Blazers aren't going to win a title but they are certainly doing better than I thought and a lot of others did as well. Lilliard scored 31 points as the visiting Blazers defeated the Chicago Bulls, 103-95, on the Bulls homecourt last night. Lilliard is averaging 25.3ppg, 7.1apg, and 4.3rpg this season and has to be considered among the top 3 PG's in the league.
Earlier this week, he scored 34 points to help the Blazers beat the hapless Nets. And he scored 51 in their win over the Warriors on Feb 19th. Lilliard is doing everything he can to see the Blazers thrive in Aldridge's absence. Considering the talent around him (CJ McCollum is the only other player who is playing at a high level), what this team is doing is pretty amazing.
