The Blazer Team is Awesome. I would call that game between the Bulls a major crusicifition. Greg Oden and all the new players this year played the best ball I've seen in the Blazers yet. We always have sold out games which is so great for team support. We love our Blazers!!!

Great game, Blazers!!! Very exciting game to watch. Kudo's to Greg for his career high points. The one stat that stuck out to me was that of five players having scored in the double digits!!! Very exciting to watch these young men every game I can;-)
