    Good for him. that 30/20 performance to rally the team probably sealed the deal.

    Anyone else notice this little incorrect gem in the Oregonian's recap of the Blazer-Warriors game?

    "Notes: Aldridge got the seventh game by a Portland player of at least 30 points and 20 rebounds. He had the last, getting 33 points and 23 rebounds at Toronto on Jan. 20, 2012. ... "

    I'm pretty certain Aldridge dropped 30 and 20 on the Warriors the last time they played (final game of last season, in the final game as the "Rose Garden").

    I hope someone mentions to Lillard the gauntlet has officially been thrown.

    I read the Blazer game recaps on occasion, but that's about all I read in the Oregonian.

    Just a little healthy competition. Meaning, now it's time for Dame to match the accomplishment.

    Competiting in practice is fine. But in games, the only opponent should be the team we are facing. I don't want Lillard and Aldridge competiting with each other.

    I'm thinking he's saying LA has elevated his game, and taken it to a new level, and he'd like to see Dame do the same. LA is arguably the best PF in the game; Dame, while a young star, has plenty of room to grow and improve upon. If Dame takes his game to a new level, Portland would be pretty damn lethal.

    Boy that really surprises me.

    He did not shoot at all well vs Chicago. I figured that right there would be enough to keep him from winning

    He got the award for the single game against Aldridge. If there hadn't been the ejections and he didn't have that big of a game, Matthews might've won the award.

    I kinda think the 30 & 20 on Saturday were the deciding stats.
