That might be as close as the Blazers will get to a playoff-like victory this year in the West. What intensity! Boys started to fold at the end but held it together enough to spoil the Lakers' chances for best record in the league. In some ways, this was the most rewarding win of the year, particularly after recent struggles. I liked T-Law's fourth-quarter defense on Kobe, including a couple of steals and contested shots. Clinching moment was Roy taking Kobe off the drive in final minute, much like at end of first half. A couple more games like this and the Blazers are officially not only spoilers but winners on the year. That's a lot to ask for, but you never know.
I can now go home and enjoy my tater tots. Given this game though, I should have ordered Fryes. See you against Memphis.
