CHARLOTTE, North Carolina (Ticker) -- The combination of GeraldWallace and Jason Richardson continue to pay dividends for theCharlotte Bobcats.


Wallace scored a game-high 27 points and Richardson scored 24 asthe Bobcats posted a 101-88 victory over the Portland TrailBlazers on Monday.


Raymond Felton had 24 points and 10 assists and Emeka Okaforadded 12 and 12 rebounds for Charlotte, which has won twostraight and three of four.


The Bobcats, who have also won three straight here, continuedthe road struggles for the Trail Blazers. Portland, undefeatedat home, have dropped all seven on the road.


Wallace, who connected on 10-of-18 from the field, scored 12points in the opening quarter and 18 through two periods to giveCharlotte a 40-36 halftime lead. It was the third game in arow that Wallace, who signed a six-year, $52-million contractover the summer, had scored 27 points.


Richardson, who also keyed a 16-6 run for Charlotte in its winagainst Seattle Saturday night, scored 14 in the third period,including the first 10 to start the quarter. The 6-6Richardson, whom the Bobcats acquired in a draft-day trade fromthe Golden State Warriors, shot 11-of-21 from the field.

Trailing, 66-63, just under a minute into the final quarter, theBobcats went on an 11-4 run, capped by two free throws byOkafor to make it 74-70 at the 8:19 mark of the period.

After two free throws by Brandon Roy cut Portland's deficit to76-74, Charlotte used a 10-2 spurt, ending with a Richardsondunk with 5:26 left, to take control at 86-76.


Portland never got closer than seven points the rest of the wayas Felton scored nine of the Bobcats' final 14 points to helpsecure the victory.


Roy scored 17 points and reserve Jarrett Jack added 16 forPortland, which shot 42 percent (30-of-72).

 

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina (Ticker) -- The combination of GeraldWallace and Jason Richardson continue to pay dividends for theCharlotte Bobcats.


Wallace scored a game-high 27 points and Richardson scored 24 asthe Bobcats posted a 101-88 victory over the Portland TrailBlazers on Monday.


Raymond Felton had 24 points and 10 assists and Emeka Okaforadded 12 and 12 rebounds for Charlotte, which has won twostraight and three of four.


"There's not one player on this team that has to carry thescoring load all the time," Wallace said. "I think the balancebetween us is good with how our offense is flowing."

The Bobcats, who have also won three straight here, continuedthe road struggles for the Trail Blazers. Portland, undefeatedat home, have dropped all seven on the road.


Wallace, who connected on 10-of-18 from the field, scored 12points in the opening quarter and 18 through two periods to giveCharlotte a 40-36 halftime lead. It was the third game in arow that Wallace, who signed a six-year, $52-million contractover the summer, had scored 27 points.


Richardson, who also keyed a 16-6 run for Charlotte in its winagainst Seattle Saturday night, scored 14 in the third period,including the first 10 to start the quarter.


"I just pick my time," Richardson said. "Gerald was going inthe first half and I wasn't going to force myself. I found myspot in the second half and got the ball in the basket."

The 6-6 Richardson, whom the Bobcats acquired in a draft-daytrade from the Golden State Warriors, shot 11-of-21 from thefield.


Trailing, 66-63, just under a minute into the final quarter, theBobcats went on an 11-4 run, capped by two free throws byOkafor to make it 74-70 at the 8:19 mark of the period.

"We had a lead in the fourth quarter," Roy said, "Butunfortunately didn't do the things it takes to win on the road.Right now, we're not putting together four quarters which youhave to do to win on the road. We're going back home andhopefully we can continue to defend our home court."

After two free throws by Brandon Roy cut Portland's deficit to76-74, Charlotte used a 10-2 spurt, ending with a Richardsondunk with 5:26 left, to take control at 86-76.


"We've got scorers from all ends," Felton said of his team'swell-rounded scoring effort. "We're all capable of putting theball in the basket every night."


Portland never got closer than seven points the rest of the wayas Felton scored nine of the Bobcats' final 14 points to helpsecure the victory.


Roy scored 17 points and reserve Jarrett Jack added 16 forPortland, which shot 42 percent (30-of-72).
