Prob much needed but blazers don't play till day after Christmas almost a week off. It will be the Clippers on TNT.
4 days off is a mini All Star break. We've played more games so far than most teams so I think the break will be good for the guys to get some extra rest.
Physically, that's great. Mentally, it can be hard to maintain focus and intensity with long lay offs. Please crush Flop City on national TV.
Clippers play @ Golden State on the 25th so they'll be playing the rested Trail Blazers on the second night of a road back to back.
