The team goes 5-0 without LaMarcus, and then tonight, on a night when
the Jazz should've been out for blood (and dignity)....and on a night
when Brandon is limited to 9 minutes due to an injury..and the team is
down by 7 points in the 3rd...they pull out *another * win.

Martel had 24 points in the 3rd (including a 14-0 run by himself and a
8-0 run by himself iirc). LaMarcus had a really good first half. And
Travis delivered in the 4th.

And no Brandon. The youngest team in the league is supposed to fold
under these circumstances.

Looks like they've developed heart and pride in the way they perform,
important things for winners. And it carried them. It can carry them
a ways, but it only goes so far. This is yet another reminder of how
fragile it can be, with injuries to a team on a roll. As if we need
that in Portland. I say Roy is the one player they can't lose for
long.
