Brandon Roy led all Trail Blazers with 18 points and 5 assists, while Ime and Martell both turned in 11 apiece. Jamaal Magloire grabbed 13 rebounds...

It's unfortunate that 2007 had to start off with a tough loss against a team that hadn't won a game in 6 tries. Some people will blame the New Year's festivities, some will blame the new basketball, but whatever it was, the Trail Blazers just couldn't get going offensively.

The Trail Blazers have a chance to rebound in the Rose Garden against Eddy Curry and the New York Knicks this Wednesday.

As a co-captain, he should be ashamed of himself for not being ready for tonight's game, New Year's Eve nonwithstanding. You could tell that Zac put himself before the team because it was apparent that he, how shall I put this delicately, had spent his energy the night before.; 11:24 PM
