No Damian Lillard, No Jusuf Nurkic, No Problem. The Portland Trail Blazers ride Jerami Grant's 27 points to an unlikely and impressive 106-95 win over the Pelicans in New Orleans on Thursday.
There was so much to love about this game beyond Grant's big night and highlight dunk against Zion Williamson. Anfernee Simons was aggressive going to the rim, Nassir Little had a big night off the bench, and Chauncey Billups once again pressed all the right buttons.
So seriously, is this the best team in the west right now? They're certainly in the conversation. Let's talk about it.
