And we're talking three-pointers!

Martell Webster connected again for his 13th point and the Trail Blazers 7th three of the night.

As time expired on the second half, the Trail Blazers now lead 60 - 50, thanks in large part to the sharp-shooting of Travis Outlaw, Martell Webster and point guard Jarrett Jack.

Webster leads the Trail Blazers with 13 points, but Travis Outlaw and Jarrett Jack are close behind with 10 points each.

Jarrett Jack also leads the team in assists with 4.

It's important to point out that Jack's backups, Sergio Rodriguez and Dan Dickau, have also been stellar. Both have 5 points each, and they've combined for 5 assists as well.

Jack's counterpart, Mike Wilks of the SuperSonics, has led his team with 11 points and 5 points, making it a true battle of the backcourts!

The biggest difference between the two teams has been the inability for Seattle to find small forward Rashard Lewis. Lewis has contributed a relatively quiet 7 points, which is particularly shocking considering he is Seattle's most explosive offensive weapon.

With the TNT DUNK SQUAD lighting up the arena with all sorts of trampoline aided dunks, you can literally feel the excitement building in the Rose Garden for Trail Blazers basketball. Not only does it look like Portland will finish the season strong, the Trail Blazers also have a chance to reward tonight's sold-out crowd with FREE CHALUPAS!

60 points down, only 40 more to go, and we're all getting free dinner!
