    Portland won despite trailing at half for first time since Dec. 27. In Portland's 22 games before tonight, the team leading at halftime won.

    Portland's season-high tying five-game winning streak is tied with Charlotte and Cleveland for the longest active streak in the NBA.

    I would've guessed Roy had done it. Shows how difficult it really is. And this has been against good defensive teams.

    The Trail Blazers improve to 5-0 at home in divisional games and 9-3 overall against the Northwest Division.

    I went to a basketball game, and a penalty kick contest broke out.

    Good to win - but lordy I hate that crap.

    Tonight marks the first time that Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum have scored 30+ points each in the same game.

    Stotts has done a helluva job with this team. Mixing and matching the rotation, riding the hot hands. 10 games ago Harkless was racking up DNP's.

    Dame on the losses previously that were within reach:

    "Those games were necessary for our growth"

    I am so turned on. That sounds like coach-speak... from a player!
