The Los Angeles Lakers will face Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers for the first time this season on Monday night.

Lillard opened up about the matchup with the defending champions and noted how successful the Lakers were in offseason.

“Across the league, I think they had the best offseason. As always, they’re going to be a tough game, but not a game that we can’t win,” Lillard said, via Dave McMenamin of ESPN.

The Lakers added Marc Gasol, Montrezl Harrell, Dennis Schroder and Wesley Matthews to the roster and are already considered one of the favorites for the championship.

The Lakers (2-1) will attempt to extend their winning streak to three games. Meanwhile, Lillard and the Blazers (1-1) want to earn their second straight victory.
