Noah Coslov and Adam Stanco break down Damian Lillard's spectacular play during his recent historic stretch and examine whether the Blazers will make the playoffs. Adam explains why there's still reason to be concerned if you're a Blazers fan and Noah thinks people need to take a closer look at Portland's schedule. The guys also go in-depth as to why they don't think Zion Williamson should be playing in the Rising Stars Challenge. However, Noah is pumped to see Zion face Giannis Antetokounmpo this week as the Bucks take on the Pelicans. The NBA Draft matchup Adam is excited to see this week is North Carolina's Cole Anthony against Duke's Tre Jones.
