03/12/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brandon Roy scored 41 points and had eight rebounds, as Portland locked down Golden State in the fourth quarter and rallied for a 110-105 victory.
Andre Miller contributed 15 points and seven assists, LaMarcus Aldridge added 14 points and eight assists, while Jerryd Bayless and Rudy Fernandez donated 12 points apiece off the bench for Portland, which has won two straight games in the race for a playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Trail Blazers, who outscored the Warriors 27-9 in the last quarter, now sit a half-game behind idle San Antonio for the seventh playoff spot.
Portland snapped a nine-game losing streak on the road versus the Warriors, winning for the first time in Oakland since November 3, 2004.
Corey Maggette led Golden State with 24 points and six assists, Monta Ellis registered 17 points, Stephen Curry added 15 points and Anthony Tolliver notched a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds. Golden State, which had 96 points entering the fourth stanza, struggled by going 3-of-14 from the field over the final 12 minutes and dropped its sixth straight.
Trailing 96-83 entering the fourth period, an Aldridge layup trimmed the deficit to 98-93 with just under eight minutes to play. After two free throws by Reggie Williams pushed the margin out to 102-93, the Trail Blazers scored 15 straight points as the Warriors went approximately six minutes without a field goal at one point.
Fernandez's trey squared the contest at 102 with just under five minutes on the clock and an Aldridge three-point play capped the stretch for a 108-102 lead with 1:39 on the clock. Curry kept the Warriors in the contest with a three-pointer, then both teams had empty possessions before C.J. Watson curiously committed a foul with 9.2 ticks left, and only three seconds left on the shot clock.
Miller made both foul shots for a two-possession game, and Portland survived the final nine ticks to cap the comeback.
The game was tied at 28 after one stanza, and the Warriors jumped in front 46-40 on a Williams trey with just over 6 1/2 minutes to play in the first half. The edge reached double figures at 55-45 on a Curry technical free throw and got as high as 58-47 before the visitors finished the half on a 11-2 spurt. Roy was fouled and made three foul shots with 2.3 ticks left to cut the deficit to 60-58.
Again, the Warriors went on a run and grew their edge to 78-66 on an Ellis jumper. Golden State led by 16 before Fernandez capped the third-period scoring with a trey for a 96-83 game.
Game Notes
Williams had 14 points and Watson donated 12 for the Warriors...Portland made seven treys, while Golden State drained 10-of-26 from beyond the arc...Marcus Camby had a season-high nine offensive rebounds as part of a 17-rebound performance, but scored just four points on 1-of-7 shooting for Portland.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
