Can Shaedon Sharpe and Portland Trailblazers make it to the postseason this year?
Shaedon Sharpe and the Portland Trailblazers had a great start this season and were even topping the ranking table. But injuries ruined and limited them as they are still without the services of Damian Lillard and a few other important key role-players like GP2. Jerami Grant, Anfernee Simons and other young guns of the team have done a commendable job of keeping the team alive in the conversation.
But the efforts from their end aren’t enough to play some winning basketball. As right now the Portland Trailblazers are ranked in the 11th spot with a 11-11 record and have lost 3 games straight. They need a leader to guide them and run the offense as the other veterans are yet to get handy with the system. But once everyone is back and healthy they are surely going to be a problem for the league as they’ll be hunting for a playoff berth.
