NBA power rankings: Week 6
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
Previous Deseret News rank: 22
NBA.com rank: 22
DeseretNews.com Fan Power Poll Rank: 24
Record: 8-12
Streak: Lost 2
The Trail Blazers are one of a few select teams to have multiple four-game win streaks so far this season. Weber State standout Damian Lillard is doing pretty well at the point guard position, but that's about all that seems to be clicking regularly for Portland, and despite his stellar play, the Blazers are second-to-last in assists per game.
You'd think that with LaMarcus Aldredge down low, the Blazers would be better than 26th in the league in rebounding, but you'd be wrong.
