Blazers Shoot Like Katniss, Lakers Defend Like Peeta, Portland Wins

Kobe looks old and Portland's guards amazing as the Blazers beat the Lakers for the second time in as many weeks.

OK, well if he didn't say it, he should have. After tonight's 106-98 romp against the Lakers, the Portland Trail Blazers own a 2-0 record against them this season, a 7-10 mark overall. They'd happily play against the Purple and Gold every night of the week and twice on Sunday. Really...tip the ball now. Another game closer to .500 would be nice.

Normally our extended recaps include lengthy Game Flow and Analysis sections. They're hardly necessary tonight.
