From Portland to East Lansing

Rip Hamilton did his best Tayshaun Prince impression in the playoffs by going 5-20 from the field last night. And the Pistons didnt help themselves on the defensive end either allowing the Blazers to pick n’roll them to death en route to a 102-94 win.

The Blazers shot 55% from the field. Yep, 55%.

A team whose staple was defense allowed Jarret Jack, LaMarcus Aldridge and Brandon Roy to combine for 52 points on 25-42 shooting.

To make matters worse, Chauncey got banged up twice in the game(hip flexor and knee) and Dice hurt his shoulder again.

ASB says its possible Dice wont play tonight.

About 3000 miles away, Chicago State came into the Breslin Center and got smoked by 12th ranked Michigan State 86-53. Raymar Morgan proved he was a man among boys with 25 points and 15 rebounds and the trio of freshman added 31 points.

And while the BTN might suck because they wont make a deal with Comcast, at least they are willing to make their highlights available for everyone online.

What'd you think of this?
