Sergio Rodriguez has connected with Travis Outlaw on two consecutive plays to give the forward two easy baskets.

Both attempts, however, resulted in foul shots.

The third time down the floor, Sergio found Jamaal Magloire for a dunk, but once again, the Sonics chose to foul before giving up the easy basket.

Fans of "Spanish Chocolate" have to be wondering why the NBA doesn't record passes which result in foul shots as assists. Even though the rookie point guard created 3 wide open shot attempts, none of them were chalked up as assists because the opposing team chose to foul.

With 4:32 left in the game, it's 96 - 93 Trail Blazers!

-Sonics Coach Bob Hill was hit with a technical for arguing both the foul on Jamaal Magloire as well as a play on the other side of the floor in which it appeared that Mike Wilks was knocked off the glass during a fastbreak lay-up attempt. No foul was called and, as a result, Coach Hill felt the referees needed to hear his opinion.
