Blazers and former Blazers coming up big in the playoffs

Josh Cordell — Sun, 24 Apr 2011 07:03:21 +0000

Brandon Roy – Roy had an Easter weekend performance to remember with his amazing 18 fourth-quarter points to lead the Blazers to a comeback win over the Mavs. It was the best Blazer performance I can remember seeing in a longtime and it had such a redemptive feel to it. I’m so happy for Roy and stoked that the series is now tied at 2-2.

Wesley Matthews – Hit four big threes en route to a team-high 25 points in leading the Blazers to a must-win home game that put Portland on the board 1-2 in the first-round series with Dallas.

Jermaine O’Neal – Shocked everyone with his performance in game one of the Boston versus New York series. O’Neal was a perfect six of six from the field and had four huge blocked shots to lift the Celtics over the Knicks.

Zach Randolph – Z-Bo’s three-pointer with under a minute to play in game 3 lifted the Memphis Grizzlies to a 2-1 advantage over the San Antonio Spurs and it’s being called the biggest shot in Grizzlies’ history.

Kevin Durant hottest player in NBA

Josh Cordell — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 23:13:23 +0000

Every time I hear about how well Kevin Durant is playing for Oklahoma City I say, “what if.” What if the Blazers had drafted Kevin Durant instead of Greg Oden? I was 100% for picking Oden. I was sold on the idea that you take a good big man over a great wing. But it looks like I was wrong, at least so far. Can you imagine Durant playing along side Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge? Wow, that would be amazing!

What has Kevin Durant done this year? Here are a few highlights:
• Averaging 29.8 points per game this year.
• 24.5 career ppg
• Durant has scored over 25 points in 27 straight games. No one else has done that in about 40 years.

Brandon Roy Olympics… no!?

Did Brandon Roy want to be on the Olympic team? The last we heard from him, he did! So why wasn’t he named to the 27 player roster?

Which Blazer starting 5 would win?

Josh Cordell — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 06:15:10 +0000

Let’s pretend for a moment that all of the Portland Trailblazers are healthy. I’ve taken the 15 Blazers who are currently on Portland’s roster and broken them um into three pretty even teams of five. So which team would win if they played each other? And I just have to say, how crazy deep are the Blazers to be able to put together three good teams of five?

TEAM 1
G Steve Blake 6-3
G Brandon Roy 6-6
C Juwan Howard 6-9
F Travis Outlaw 6-9
F Dante Cunningham 6-8

TEAM 2
G Andrew Miller 6-2
G Rudy Fernandez 6-6
C Joel Przybilla 7-1
F Nicolas Batum 6-8
F Jeff Pendergraph 6-9

TEAM 3
G Patty Mills 6-0
G Jerryd Bayless 6-3
C Greg Oden 7-0
F Martell Webster 6-7
F LaMarcus Aldridge 6-11

Blazers just keep fighting… and winning!

Josh Cordell — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 08:45:35 +0000

Portland’s 105-89 victory over Golden State on Saturday night was a good one for many reasons. First take a look at this impressive list of Blazers:
Greg Oden, C
Joel Przybilla, C
LaMarcus Aldridge, F
Steve Blake, G
Rudy Fernadez, G
Travis Outlaw, F
Nicolas Batum, F

Oh yeah, those aren’t the Blazers that won the game that improved the team’s record to 22-13 and was their 6th with out of their last 7 games. Those are the Blazers that are either hurt or sick and aren’t playing right now (some of them are out all year). This is the group that won Saturday’s game:
Brandon Roy, G
Andre Miller, G
Juwan Howard, F
Martell Webster, F
Jeff Pendergraph, F
Jerryd Bayless, G
Dante Cunningham, F
Shavlik Randolph, F

Coming into the season, everyone knew the Blazers were deep… but this is ridiculous!!!
