Warriors Riding High, Blazers Trying to Stay Afloat
The Warriors are straight-up rolling. Steph Curry is back to his MVP form, and Klay Thompson is starting to find his rhythm again. They're clicking on all cylinders, and the rest of the league is taking notice. On the other hand, the Blazers have been a mixed bag. Damian Lillard is still playing like a superstar, but the rest of the team needs to step up to give him some help.
