The Portland Trail Blazers playoff push starts now well I guess it started in October but it also restarts now because we all get lots of chances to do our best.

We preview the first game back from the break against the Sacramento Kings with injury updates for Jusuf Nurkic, Anfernee Simons, Justise Winslow and Jerami Grant.

Then we look at the Blazers history of post-All Star Break success to see if they how they've fared in the Lillard era during the stretch run.

Finally, we put a number on it. Running down the Western Conference standings to look at exactly how many wins it's going to take for the Blazers to make playoffs.
