The Blazers lose yet another big man. Zach Collins will be out for a while and could be back by March at the earliest.

There are a lot of things happening in the league right now. So the Celtics getting off to a 5-1 start has kind of gone a bit under the radar.
Eric Paschall of the Golden State Warriors scored 34 points in… an upset over the Blazers. (Yes, I know the Warriors have had the Blazers’ number for years.)
John Collins of the Atlanta Hawks gets a 25-game suspension for violating the NBA anti-drug policy. Yikes.
Power rankings are stupid. That’s why we have them here. But why go with the usual best to worst team when we can just look at all the NBA hijinks?
LeBron has held the crown as the best for so long. Right now, a lot of people are about Kawhi Leonard. Some are for Giannis and Harden. But Luka Doncic is likely the next in line for that spot.
The Golden State Warriors had 17 players in their Finals roster last year. On Saturday night, only ONE of them was active. Insanity.
LeBron James is 35 years old next month. He is in his 17th NBA season. Yet he can still do numbers like he is still in his prime. Maybe he still IS in his prime.
Stephen Curry will be out for a while. And those Warriors are going to look REALLY different for possibly the rest of the season.
Oldheads like to say, “BACK IN MY DAY, NBA PLAYERS PLAYED ALL 82 GAMES!!!” But honestly, that’s probably not the wisest way to go.
