Prior to his return Damian Lillard sent a message to Grant & Simons and said, “Don’t let me stop you from being aggressive, I’m going to have the ball in my hands and I’m going to find opportunities to do what I do. That’s what I do.”

He added, “If we’re really going to win, then it has to be collective, It’s really encouraging for me to see it really unfold.” The Blazers are currently 13-11 and have looked good when the entire team has been healthy. The Blazers will be up against the Denver Nuggets on December 8th and it is going to be a fascinating game between two great teams.
