If you’d known before Wednesday night’s Grizz road game against the Portland Trail Blazers that Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum would combine for only 35 points, maybe you’d have thought that was a good sign for the slumping Grizzlies, since Lillard and McCollum typically create an overwhelming share of the Blazers’ offense and have been raining down jumpshots on the Grizzlies since at least the 2015 playoffs, if not before.
