The string of stinky Blazer performances continued through the first half tonight, then in the third quarter, something clicked. Before the Bobcats could get their bearings, the Blazers led by 20 and never looked back.
LaMarcus Aldridge led the Blazers with 26 points and 7 rebounds. The rest of the starters scored in the single digits, and the only other double figure scoring came from Patty Mills (12) and Brandon Roy (10).
In their return, both Dante Cunningham and Joel Przybilla received the expected (and deserved!) loud ovations.
The Blazers will be in the air shortly, and start their road trip in Orlando Monday.
Box score here, and stay tuned for Dave and Ben. -- Tim
