From the Fanhaus (written up by Tom Ziller of Sactown royalty fame): http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2007/12/22/portlands-absurdly-infernal-10-straight-wins/
Random historical coincidence: Clyde Drexler's back-to-back WC player of the week awards also came during a long win streak, 9 games, before which Portland had 2-5 record, all five losses being consecutive, including for consecutive road losses (http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/POR/1988_games.html)
Just for kicks
Clyde's averages during the streak, if I added everything up correctly, over seven games (encompassing the two weeks):
30.1 ppg 6.7rpg 7.6apg 3.6spg 0.4bpg 3.6to/pg
.540 FG% .810 FT%
Portland was up and down that year, W/L wise, but won 53 games by having win streaks of 9,5, and 9 games before losing to Utah in the first round (3-1). Drexler's season averages were:
27ppg 6.6rpg 5.8apg 2.5spg 0.6bpg 2.9to/pg
.506 FG% .212 3PT% .811FT%
