So, one of the things I failed to mention while the Trail Blazers were in the locker room was the importance of Channing Frye.

With the Trail Blazers struggling from the perimeter, Coach Nate McMillan needs Channing Frye to get going and pick up some of the slack created by LaMarcus Aldridge's injury.

Just 31 seconds into the 2nd half, however, Frye has picked up foul number 4 and will spend most of the fourth quarter on the bench. Not exactly what Coach McMillan had in mind...

Steve Blake's three-pointer has cut the Hornets lead to 5 at 47 - 42, and Brandon Roy's lay-up will... NO!

Call an ambulance! Roy just took two elbows to the upper body and then dealt with a forearm hook that was reminiscent of a "Rock Bottom" for those of you that follow the WWE from Tyson Chandler. Still, NO CALL was made...

On the other end of the floor, Chris Paul fell over and then rolled around with the ball, but apparently, the rules of traveling don't apply to star point guards.

It's 47 - 42 Hornets and nothing is coming easy for the Trail Blazers...
