Randolph had 20 points and 16 rebounds and Wells scored 17 points as the Portland Trail Blazers bounced back from a poor performance on and off the court with a 93-87 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies. </div> recap ------------------------------------ The Blazers had complete control for most of this game. Memphis had a late run to make things interesting.
Blazers are putting it all together it seems, Zach Randolph is just out of this world. I wish the Cavs would hussle as much as the Grizz do though.
Thanks for the link Rudeezy. I was constricted for time yesterday and couldn't make a preview. I watched a little bit of the game. The reason we lost in my mind was because Brown kept playing the backups (Watson, Outlaw, Wright, etc.) equally with the starters. If he would have just given the starters more time early on then Memphis would have won in my opinion.
The Grizz also put themselves in a huge hole early, and were never able to overcome it. They played the Blazers pretty even the rest of the way. The Blazers also seemed like they were too physical for the Grizz. They were getting too many 2nd chances.

He benched them about four or five minutes into the first quarter. The whole deal seemed unorthodox.
WOW..Randolph is a beast...20 and 16... Give him the ball every play and let the big guy go to work.What a future this guy has...For Portland's sake I hope they manage to keep him....He has 24 and 12 stats written all over him.
