He said he is still trying to find his rhythm after returning from that hamstring injury. Hopefully the rust gets knocked off soon.

Cavaliers aren't that great of a team. If Roy is on, and we somewhat mantain LBJ, we should win.

If we were on the road, this would be a different story. ;)

I think Portland will win. I believe the Cavs are without Delonte West and Ilgauskas.

Reminded me of a duck game tonight: Poor shooting and unable to get the defensive stops.

Roy was off, perhaps the biggest reason we lost. Mo Williams was beastin against us hurt a lot as well.

Did you see that the Huskies retired Roy's jersey tonight? I don't ever recall seeing a jersey retired so closely to a player leaving school

Wow, Roy had 9 steals tonight. I don't think I have ever seen that many by one player in an NBA game.

He actually finished with 10 steals, which I believe tied the franchise record for steals in a game.

Is it 10 or 9, because they said the 10th was marked down as a block!

few random notes to ponder:
Oden is looking great lately.
Sergio played very well tonight. I love the way he's stepped up with Blake out.
We missed Blake's outside shooting in earlier games, but this home stretch might not need it.

Solid win for Portland.

It was 10 steals. It was just a temporary error that didn't credit him with that one steal.

Here is the official boxscore:

The game recap also talks about his franchise record tying 10 steals:

Strong win for the Blazers today.. I know Utah didn't have Boozer or AK, but still. Impressive win.

Amazing comeback by the players!

Granted we did it when Paul was out, but a win is a win.

Outlaw+Bayless were deadly today. LA did his thing too.

Yeah, that was great to watch. Hate to see players get hurt, but this was a huge win for the Blazers regardless of how it happened. If Paul misses any significant amount of time, it will greatly improve the Blazers' chances of finishing ahead of New Orleans in the standing as well.
