<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> <h3>Roy, Aldridge Pressed To Score</h3> </p> Maybe the personnel don't fit a transition style. LaMarcus Aldridge seems well-suited to a running game. But Brandon Roy -- who rarely looks to score in transition -- has been most effective in the halfcourt, using size to post up and a quick first step to get to the basket.</p> </p> "We can talk about running, but is Brandon Roy really a runner?" Nate McMillan says in a moment of candor. "Your offense will become what your players' (on-court) personalities are."</p> </p> The problem is, this Portland team needs more easy baskets, if nothing to take pressure off its two scorers, second-year pros Roy and Aldridge. -- <font color="#000000">The Oregonian</font></p> </div></p>
