NEWS AND NOTES BLAZING THE TRAIL: Entering his third season with the Trail Blazers, Terry Stotts was hired as the franchise’s 14th head coach on August 7, 2012. Stotts led the Trail Blazers to a 54-win season in 2013-14, marking the largest improvement in franchise history and the sixth-best record all-time. Portland won its first playoff series in 14 seasons, defeating the Houston Rockets in six games and setting up a Western Conference Semifinal matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. The postseason berth was the team’s first since 2010-11. Named the NBA’s Western Conference Coach of the Month for November of 2013 after getting the Trail Blazers off to a 13-3 start, Stotts, 56, has molded Portland into one of the top offensive teams in the NBA, ranking among league leaders in scoring (fourth), free throw pct. (first), 3-point pct. (10th), rebounds (first), assists (ninth) and turnovers (fifth) for 2013-14. The Trail Blazers’ 106.7-point scoring average last season stands as the highest in 20 years (1993-94, 107.3 ppg). Stotts has compiled an 87-77 (.530) record in two seasons at the helm in Portland, and has a 202-245 (.452) NBA overall coaching record between his stints with Atlanta, Milwaukee and Portland. Prior to coming to Portland, Stotts served as an assistant coach with Dallas for four seasons from 2008-12.

Under head coach Rick Carlisle, he helped lead the Mavericks to the 2011 NBA Championship.

DAME FROM DEEP: In just his second NBA season, Damian Lillard connected on 218 three-pointers last season, surpassing Damon Stoudemire (181) for the franchise record of most threes made in a single season. Lillard also finished third in the NBA in three-point field goals made, trailing just Stephen Curry (261) and Klay Thompson (223)of Golden State.

TRIPLE THREAT: The three-point shot was an often used weapon last season for Portland, which ranked fourth in the NBA with 770 three-point field goals. The Trail Blazers were the only team in the league with three players ranked in the top-25 in three-pointers made (Lillard: 218; Matthews: 201; Batum: 145). Portland also set a franchise record on Jan. 2 for most three-pointers in a single game, knocking down 21 against Charlotte. The Trail Blazers became the first team in NBA history to compile two 21 three-point field goal games in one season (also Dec. 14 at Philadelphia). When making 10-plus threes in a game last season, Portland was 27-8.

GETTING DEFENSIVE: The Trail Blazers defense improved throughout the course of the season. Prior to the All-Star break last season Portland ranked 19th in the NBA with 104.6 points allowed per 100 possessions. After the All-Star Game, however, Portland jumped up nine spots to 10th in the NBA in points allowed per 100 PRESEASON NOTE: The Trail Blazers started out the preseason possessions (103.6).

L-TRAIN: After scoring nine points (4-8 FG) in the preseason opener, LaMarcus Aldridge exploded for 22 points on 10-of-14 shooting and six rebounds on Thursday night. Aldridge scored 12 points in the first quarter alone, tying Will Barton’s team-high scoring output from the opener. Aldridge’s 10 field goals marks a 2014-15 NBA Preseason high in field goals made in a single game.

SHOOTING (ALL-STARS): Both LaMarcus Aldridge and Damian Lillard were selected to the Western Conference All-Star Team last season, becoming just the first Portland duo to head to the mid-season classic since Clyde Drexler and Clifford Robinson both participated during the 1993-94 season.

ALDRIDGE ASCENDING THE LEADERBOARDS: Since joining the Trail Blazers in 2006-07, LaMarcus Aldridge has carved his name into the record books. Having played in 577 games for Portland (536 starts) the Texas native is averaging 19.2 points and 8.3 rebounds per game. Heading into his ninth NBA season, Aldridge ranks second in franchise history in field goals made (4,462), third in points scored (10,901), fourth in defensive rebounds (3,150), offensive rebounds (1,559) and minutes played (20,460) and fifth in total rebounds (4,708) and free throws made (1,953). Aldridge earned his third All-Star Game appearance last season, becoming just the fifth Portland player to be named to at least three All-Star teams (Drexler, Lucas, Roy, Wicks).

BACK-TO-BACKS: Portland will play 19 back-to-back games in 2014-15, five of which come in March. Last season, The Trail Blazers showed no ill effects on back-to-back scenarios, posting a 12-7 record in both the first and second games (24-14 overall).

TIDES TURNING: After winning just 33 games in 2012-13, The Trail Blazers stormed back to win 54 games last season, their most since the 2008-09 season (54-28). Portland’s 21-game turnaround from 12-13 to 13-14 represents the largest one-season turnaround in franchise history. Last season’s performance snapped the previous record of a 20-game turnaround after Portland won 59 games in 1989-90 (39-43 in 1988).

FAST START: Portland stormed out of the gates in 2013-14, winning 24 of its first 30 games. That hot start marked the organization’s best win percentage (.800) since it went 24-6 during the 1998-99 season.

BACK IN BLACK: After signing with the Trail Blazers on July 10, Steve Blake is returning to Portland for his third stint with the organization. Blake previously played for the Trail Blazers in 2005-06, and once again from 2007-09. In his 269 career games with Portland to date, Blake has averaged 8.9 points and 4.7 assists.

NEWS AND NOTES FAMILIAR FACES: After winning 54 games and a first round playoff series in 2013-14, the Trail Blazers return all five starters and 13 total players from last season. This is Portland’s largest class of returning players in franchise history. The Trail Blazers previously brought back as many as 12 players in the offseason between the 1997-98 and 1998-99 seasons.

ROLO’S ROLLIN’: It was a banner year for Robin Lopez in his first season with the Trail Blazers, as the big man hauled in a career-highs of rebounds (8.5) and blocks (1.7) per game to go along with 11.1 points. Lopez also set the Trail Blazers individual record for offensive rebounds in a season (326) and became the first NBA player to amass 300-plus offensive rebounds and 130plus blocks in a single season since Dwight Howard in 2010-11.

Lopez also recorded a career-high 29 double-doubles, 20 more than his previous high of nine in (2011-12, 2012-13).

WRITTEN IN STONE: Trail Blazers Head Coach Terry Stotts produced just two different starting lineups throughout the 2013-14 regular season, the lowest total in the league. Only six other teams had less than 10 different starting lineups, while 12 teams ended the season with 20 or more.

DIVISION DOMINANCE: The Trail Blazers finished the 201314 capaign with a 13-3 record against their Northwest Division opponents. That record marks not only the best record in the five-team division, but also the best record vs. divisional opponents throughout the entire NBA. Division dominance has been no ordinary thing for Portland, as Rip City had won just 10 total games against divisional foes in the previous two seasons (12-13, 11-12).

NO DRAFT HERE: The Portland Trail Blazers were one of five teams without a draft pick in the 2014 NBA Draft this summer. It marked just the first time since the 1998-99 season that the Trail Blazers were without at least one selection in the draft. Since 2007, Portland has selected 25 players.

THIRD TEAM REPPIN’: LaMarcus Aldridge and Damian Lillard were both named Third Team All-NBA last season, becoming the first Rip City duo since 1977-78 (Bill Walton, Maurice Lucas) to both recieve All-NBA Honors.

LILLARD LOOMING WITH THE ELITES: He may be entering just his third NBA season, but Damian Lillard has already put himself in elite company. Only four players in NBA history have more points (3,257) and assists (988) in their first two seasons (O. Robertson, T. Archibald, A. Iverson, L. James). In 164 career games, Lillard has averaged 19.9 points and 6.0 assists in 37.2 minutes per game.

CORE FOUR: Consistency was a common theme for Portland last season, and it all started with the starting lineup. Out of the 12 players in the NBA to start all 82 games in 2013-14, four donned Trail Blazers’ colors. Nicolas Batum, Damian Lillard, Robin Lopez and Wesley Matthews all started in every game for Portland last season, while no other team had more than one player accomplsh that feat. Portland became the first team to have four players start every game throughout the regular season since the Los Angeles Lakers in 2010-11.

SURVIVE AND ADVANCE: In defeating the Houston Rockets in the first round of the NBA Playoffs last season, the Trail Blazers advanced to the second round of the postseason for the first time since the 1999-2000 season, when they reached the Western Conference Finals. Portland’s win over Houston snapped a string of six consecutive first-round playoff defeats dating back to the 2000-01 season.

DOUBLE TROUBLE: LaMarcus Aldridge recorded a careerhigh 40 double-doubles last season, ranking seventh best in the NBA. Aldridge also became the first Trail Blazers player to reach the 40 double-double mark since the 2003-04 season when Zach Randolph notched 43 in 81 games played. In addition to his regular season production, Aldridge also had eight doubledoubles in the playoffs in 11 games against Houston and San Antonio.

EXPERIENCE MATTERS: The Trail Blazers are a much more experienced team this year than in previous seasons. The current team’s experience level averages out to 4.27 years, which is over a full year more than the 2012-13 season (3.26 years).

Last season, Portland’s level of experience averaged out to 3.86 years. The Trail Blazers roster features three players with doubledigit years of NBA experience (Blake: 11, Kaman: 11, Wright: 10). The defending NBA champion San Antonio Spurs featured an average experience level of 5.37 last season, while the last place Milwaukee Bucks (15-67) owned a 3.37 experience rating.

WESLEY FOR THREE: En route to producing his best scoring output ( 16.4 ppg) in five NBA seasons, Wesley Matthews also recorded a stellar shooting season from behind the arc. Not only was his 201 three-pointers made in a season a career high, but he also finished fifth in the league. Matthews became the second player in NBA history to make at least 125 three-pointers in each of his first four seasons (Kevin Durant).

HOME COOKIN’: Portland wrapped up the 2013-14 season with 54 wins, 31 of which came within the friendly confines of the Moda Center. The Trail Blazers’ 31-10 home record was the sixth best home record in the NBA, and the organization’s best since 2008-09 (34-7).

BEASTING THE EAST: In 2013-14,Portland compiled a 23-7 record against the Eastern Conference, trailing just San Antonio (24-6) for most cross-conference wins. It also represented the Trail Blazers highest win-total against the east since before 2002.

MODA CENTER MADNESS: The Trail Blazers finished the 201314 season ranked fifth in attendance with 809,612 fans piling into the Moda Center through 82 home games (19,746/game). This continued a common trend for the Rip City faithful, as Portland has finished top-10 in the league’s attendance ratings for seven consecutive seasons (2008-2014). This stretch includes two seasons (2011, 2012) in which the Trail Blazers finished as high as second in the league’s attendance.

WORTH NOTING: The Trail Blazers have started 0-3 in the preseason four times in their 44 years. The two most recent 0-3 starts came in 1987 and 1988, both years in which Portland advanced to the Western Conference playoffs.
