The Rockets finished them off in six and the Blazers have spent the summer and fall trying to get back their mojo.<\/p>\n<p>There aren\u2019t many changes from the young group that went 54-28 last season, but one notable addition \u2013 point guard Andre Miller \u2013 might help the Blazers steer through rough seas better than they did last season. Miller is comfy in either an uptempo or halfcourt offense, and should help emerging superstar Brandon Roy get shots where and when he wants them.<\/p>\n<p>The Blazers are hoping that LaMarcus Aldridge can make a jump into the upper echelons of power forwards, but to do that he\u2019ll need to work on positioning more. He can already shoot.<\/p>\n<p>And who knows if Portland will ever get anything close to a full season from Greg Oden, who seems to pile up injuries faster than Kevin Durant accumulates double-doubles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Surprising stat:<\/strong> Only Steve Blake, who figures to loose his starting job to Miller, shot over 40 percent from 3-point range last season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Strengths:<\/strong> 1. Roy is one of the most fundamentally sound 2-guards in the league. 2.  Portland digs in defensively (No. 4 in the NBA last season). 3. Nate McMillan is one of the league\u2019s top coaches.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weaknesses:<\/strong> If Oden spends any significant amount of time in the trainer\u2019s room, there are major problems up front.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Playoffs?<\/strong> For sure.
