The Portland Trail Blazers kept their date with the Houston Rockets from turning into a total snoozefest Friday night at the Moda Center. It was no 40-point romp that embarrassed the franchise and put the game out of reach by halftime, though the game was never too close either. Trendon Watford scored a team-high 19 points, Drew Eubanks dunked his way to 18 points, but ultimately the Blazers couldn’t hit enough three-pointers to keep up with the hot-shooting Rockets, falling 125-106 in another outing that will help their Draft Lottery odds.
