It's easy to get frustrated in a game where the opposing team shoots 40% from three-point land, Phoenix is 8 for 20, and gets double digit scoring out of each of their 5 starters, Marion has the fewest points with 13. It's also not everyday that Raja Bell shoots 6 for 10 from downtown, which he has so far tonight...

But Portland needs to grow with each quarter. Starting the fourth quarter with a lot of energy and closing the gap on the Phoenix Suns, would be a huge boost going into a tough game against Indiana.

With 10:11 left to play, Sergio, Juan and Martell have all hit big shots to cut the Phoenix lead to 15 points. This Trail Blazers lineup is playing with a lot of heart and is creating open looks by moving without the basketball, something the Trail Blazers failed to do earlier in the game.
