Dwight Howard went off for 19 points in the first quarter of Rockets vs. Trailblazers, with most of those points coming from dunks – 12 to be exact. DH seemed fired up after Shaq – once again- went off on him, and it seemed to work. But ultimately, the Blazers had a total team effort with LaMarcus Aldridge having his second back-to-back playoff game scoring 40 points.
LMA went off for 43 points. Point guard Damian Lillard chipped in a double-double with 18 points and 11 assists. Portland’s bench came alive with Dorell Wright adding 15 points off the bench and 3 blocked shots, to leave the Rockets without home court advantage, heading back to Portland down 0-2.
