The NBA... where amazing happens... That's what can be said about this current home stand... I feel that the games the Blazers lost to the Rockets and Cavs should have been wins and the wins against the Hawks and now, the Knicks from last night should have been loses, but no matter how you slice it, the Blazers are currently 2-2 on this 6 game homestand...
Zach Randolph got his boo's of course from the crowd, but it seemed to ignite his play earlier on as he and David Lee were big catalysts why New York was ahead early and for most of the game.
Aldridge's play early was a big reason why the Blazers remained close... If my memory serves me correctly, he made 4 of his first 5 shots and was the only person making any FGs in the 1st half...
Just after being announced to his 1st All-Star game yesterday, Brandon Roy didn't look like much of an All-Star early on in the game... His two index fingers on his left hand were noticeable swollen and it was definitely affecting his game, but by the overtime and conclusion B-Roy would notch his first ever triple double catapulting the Blazers back to victory!
If I were Nate in this game, I might have let Roy rest like Mike Brown of Cleveland did when LeBron injured himself, but its obvious that without Roy last night, the Blazers don't win. Let's just hope Roy's injured fingers get healed with this extensive break coming up...
