I hated how Harvey was being a jerk on the radio toward Minnesota, just basically making fun of them being losers. It wasn't so long ago that we weren't winning all that much. But man, that was kind of classless on his part.

Oh well, 12 in a row!!
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I was reading a Wolves forum earlier and it could have been any Blazer board not too long ago. We can all empathize with T'Wolf fans. Sad thats hes part of the Org, if hes gonna talk that crap.
But like you said....12 in a row!
I love this team. This is a game that our less talented, previous Blazer teams would have lost due to over-confidence. But this team actually appeared to out-hustle another team despite an 11 game winning streak. Really good energy for a team that I feared would be like teams of old and over-confident.
Six players in double figures and 28 assists, despite no-one on the team having more than 5 assists and seven having at least 2.
BTW, is the headline, "Trial Blazers win streak hits a dozen", supposed to be "Trial"? on NBA.com. I thought we'd kicked the jailblazer image...
For those of you upset at Roy not playing in the second quarter: Roy played the entire second half. That is why Nate held him out so that he could get a nice rest in the second and start the second half refreshed and worry free about fouls.
it really felt like a game where they stayed close for three quarters and then just watched Minnesota implode. Jefferson was scoring at will and they the Twolves just forgot about trying to isolate him. we did a better job of denying him the ball, but mostly it was just bad offense on their part.
Minnesota played like the youngest team in the league. complete lack of composure. that Portland didn't is a credit to the team.
Another great win. Had some tough times, but pulled it out...and without even needing Travis to step up big. They were out of tickets to Sunday's game before the game. I'll be partying it up on the couch though haha.
So Hap...Beavers? Really?
Thoughts about this game:
Roy is clutch.
NathanLane is the man.
Aldridge played well, if it's from his post-game practicing last time, awesome. If not, then at least he's got great work ethic.
Blake and Jack both stepped up at different points, and that was huge.
Outlaw makes plays that don't necessarily show up on the box score.
I don't know why Webster doesn't play much late, but it's been working so I won't question it.
