A Quick Road Win!

Zach Randolph had 20 points and 16 rebounds for the Portland Trail Blazers as they "worked quickly" to snap a four-game losing streak with an 86-68 victory over the New Jersey Nets Saturday night. LaMarcus Aldridge and Jarrett Jack each had 12 points and Ime Udoka added 10 for the Blazers, who scored the first 13 points of the game and never relinquished the lead. The Blazers led by as many as 18 and finished the opening quarter with a 25-8 lead. Portland rolled to a 67-48 lead after three and cruised through the final period. everyone in Portland has jumped back on the bandwagon since the hard fought win.

just when so many were ready to write this team off last night, look what they did. Awesome win tonight and this will go a long ways towards character building. The forum seems to be a little less crowded also without the group of whiners from last night.

306368.3. how good is LaMarcus?

Seriously this guy could be the answer to the ultimate question. "What if Sheed worked on his game and played hard all the time?"

306368.3.1. I agree. I didn't know he had as much range

as it looks like we hit a triple bullseye in the draft. With Roy being out we may still end up with the Rookie of the Year.

Let me know what you think leave me a comment:
