    We won Game 1 behind Miller's 31 points and we Game 4 behind Aldridge's 31 points. Who will step up in Game 6? Roy?

    Roy was asked today if he could score 20 if asked to and he said he doesn't know, so I'm not sure Roy is the answer.

    Possibly. Or something unusual, like Martell + Bayless = 42 points.

    Nobody is my guess. When the Suns adjusted to stake away Miller's drive, this series was pretty much done for the Blazers. Why we can't set better picks for Andre is a mystery to me.

    It also points to the fact that the Blazers need a PG that can shoot the 3.

    I love what Miller has done for the team, but too many times I find myself wishing he was a good 3pt shooter. It would just make everything a little easier and not limit the Blazers so much at times.

    I think Conley would be a decent fit. I bring up Conley first because he's probably the most realistic option compared to others. His last two months of the season were pretty impressive.

    If Devin Harris or Nick Collison aren't available for the right price, I wouldn't mind a player like Conley. It's a shame this draft is thin on PGs and we couldn't nab someone like Ty Lawson last time around. I was feeling good about Andre Miller for another season until the Suns completely took him out of the series with a fairly simple adjustment.
