Here's a theory...

So, I hate to beat a dead horse here, but this is getting ridiculous.

Brandon Roy just needs to start falling over or jumping into the second row of the stands, every time he drives to the hoop.

Because he's so strong, Roy rarely ever falls over as he finishes around the hoop. Although, this is normally a positive because it allows him to quickly get back on defense, it absolutely kills his potential free-throw attempts. Referees just won't blow their whistle when a player finishes standing up.

*Pardon the interruption- but Brandon Roy has just posterized Tyson Chandler for his 12th point of the night and the Trail Blazers have taken a 4 point lead with 4:44 left in the third.*

Anyway, if Roy would finish a la Dwyane Wade or Manu Ginobili (call it the two-point tumble), he'd rack up the free-throw attempts...

Coach Nate McMillan is furious as David West just ran over Travis Outlaw and somehow drew a blocking call out of the zebras. McMillan is hardly a docile coach, but he rarely argues a judgment call. This time, however, Nate nearly jumped into the first row of the stands as he spun away in disbelief after the call.

Travis Outlaw got the last laugh, however, as he skied over 4 defenders to throw down a "Chocolate Covered, Rim-Still-Rattling, THUNDER DUNK" for his 10th point on the night.

It's the TRAIL BLAZERS LEAD 57 - 54 with 2:42 left in the third quarter and Brandon Roy now has 12 points and 6 assists on the night.
