Damian Lillard and Al-Farouq Aminu were the two Blazers to play well on offense. Lillard had 34 points, six assists and this nifty move.

Aminu had 25 points and seven rebounds, but the Blazers didn't get the play from C.J. McCollum they needed. He had just six points on 2 of 12 shooting. Only one other Blazer reached double-figures and that was Shabazz Napier, who did most of his damage in garbage time.
The Warriors will get the winner of the Jazz-Clippers series. That series is tied at 2-2.
