Listening to the crowd over the radio it sounded like someone had turned on a giant reverb unit, even the ball echoed off the court...tough to play to an empty house with any fire.
Yep. The first step to being a contender is learning how to grind out wins on the road. This team is doing that. The future looks promising...

Scott has always been solid in whatever role he's had in this town - whether it be it the Blazers or calling the epic 1998 Civil War win on television. As for the crowd - that arena seats 19,000. There's no way it was at half capacity, from watching on television. I'd guess no more than 8,000.
"the Trail Blazers have swept a road trip of at least four games for the first time since Jan. 20-26, 2003". Wow that's a long time
Sheed missed 7 straight games, including those 4. 2 of the 4, we ground out in overtime. Sheed was suspended 6 games (should have been 1 game) for yelling at Donaghy after a game. Bob Whitsitt left 3 months later. It has taken 10 years to recover from the loss of Whitsitt. http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/POR/2003_games.html
