Despite a brilliant, and at least modestly-surprising, 5-1 start to the 2026-27 NBA season, the Portland Trail Blazers face a tough schedule ahead in November. They claimed their first victory of the month last night against the Denver Nuggets. 14 games remain, 9 against teams presumed to be headed to the 2027 NBA Playoffs, 8 against potential conference finals candidates. Portland’s shiny start is about to meet the cold reality of NBA contenders.
