Wow, the Blazers beat the Pistons (in Detroit) 88-85 last night. That's a great win for a young team like this, especially with their 2nd and 3rd best players out of the lineup (Miles and Roy). I havn't gotten a chance to watch this game yet, but I will. Some key statistical notes - Portland was +11 on the boards. - 26 bench points. - Another 30+ point and 10+ rebound effort from Randolph. - A double-double for the rookie, LaMarcus Aldridge (11 points, 11 rebounds). Again, this is a great win for the Blazers.
