Zach got 36 points and 15 rebounds with only going to the line twiceIme Udoka held Shawn Marion to four points, a season low for Shawn.Brandon Roy had 22 pts, shooting the three well and easily going past Raja Bell. Lamarcus Aldridge scored 12 and only missed one shot.I think we would have won if we got to the line more. Zach got fouled a ton when he was going inside, but the refs dont give the all star treatment to guys like Zach or Duncan who dont have flashy moves. We shot 7 free throws the whole night, while the suns, the worst team in the league at getting to the line, got to the line 20 some times.Still, really good effort by the blazers who probably would have won if it werent for MVP steve nash's amazing play in the last 2 minutes.
Zach Randolph is simply a beast! This man is SO under-rated, I'm talking more under-rated than Elton Brand (and I think a bit more consistantly better actually!) too.It was nice to see Roy play well too.
Zach Randolph is turning into a star even if his name isn't recognized by everyone because he plays out there in Portland. This guy is really good and his stats just keep getting better.
