    I don't think they have had a losing streak all season

    Nope! Tough to make a streak out of 4 loses before last night. That was the best 52 game start ever. I think I heard that from Barnett.

    I always assumed Stern had a hard on for Paul Allen ever since the Chris Dudley thing.

    Blazers all-time highest points in game - Why is Lillards 51 points tied fourth, but second (Roy) and third (Miller) each have the same 52 points?

    Lillard should be tied third. . .

    My maths is calculific thank you very much. . .
    2nd and 3rd place both have 52 points - hence should be tied second - therefore Lillard should be tied third, along with Petrie.

    The ranking (r) is always based on the (x) variable subjected to the (y) variable. Which here is people (x) and points (y) You're basing it off of points first (y).

    Yeah, like the league would allow that to happen. 2000 WCF ring a bell?

    The first half you have right. They should be tied at 2nd. The second half you have wrong though. Dame would still be listed at 4th.

    Bro, I had just worked a crazy busy 12 hour day. If you notice game days I'm never on here.

    Don't you dare try to take away the chip on our shoulder - us posting with said chip is what drives us to greatness, just like Dame playing with a chip on his shoulder is death to the opposition.

    I'm a little late to the party, but there is no anti-PSX bias, at least not on this occasion.

    Pundits cannot wrap there head around the fact that this team in the last month is very different than the team in the first couple of months. If you don't notice/ignore our improvement, then GS go whacked by a .500 team, and the obvious and correct conclusion is that it was an off night by them. However, if you notice/hope that we have indeed transformed into a new, and much better team, then it was a spectacular win by us.

    As a self-confessed homer I really want to believe that we are a different team, but the evidence is becoming overwhelming: 2 solid victories in Houston, a victory in Memphis, and now destroying the champs. Hard to NOT be a homer right now.

    Go Blazers, I don't know how high your ceiling is, but I'm lovin' the ride!

    I've always liked the front court of Davis/Aminu/Harkless
