Road warriors face challenge
Despite a 6-2 record in its last eight road games, Cleveland has recently struggled at the Moda Center, losing three straight by a combined 64 points over the last three seasons. The defending Eastern Conference champions’ last six victories in the matchup have come at home.
Head coach Tyronn Lue and staff have devised a game plan that has yielded 116.6 points in the past eight road contests. If the Cavs want to cool the surging Trail Blazers and bring a halt to their 10-game winning streak, then they will need all the offense they can get from a shorthanded lineup.
