Blazers invade LA to take on Clippers

Basketball Betting Lines

04/07/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Portland Trail Blazers hope to improve on their playoff position in the Western Conference tonight when they invade Hollywood to take on the lowly Los Angeles Clippers.

The Blazers won for the fifth time in six tries on Saturday when Brandon Roy tallied game-highs of 24 points and six assists, as Portland topped Sacramento, 98-87, at ARCO Arena.

Andre Miller put in 23 points, while Nicolas Batum and LaMarcus Aldridge scored 21 apiece for the Trail Blazers, who had already clinched a postseason spot earlier last week and helped solidify the Western Conference playoff picture with the win.

The triumph, coupled with Oklahoma City's win earlier that same night, dropped Memphis from the race for the final spot, which was clinched by San Antonio.

Portland is now eighth in the conference but just a game behind both Oklahoma City and San Antonio.

"We found the open man, that was big. There weren't a lot of forced shots," Roy said. "We're going to need our bench to get going if we want to make a run in the playoffs."

The Clippers, meanwhile, dropped their fifth in a row on Sunday when David Lee had 29 points and Al Harrington scored 26 to lead the Knicks to their first win in Los Angeles against the Clippers in over 12 years, 113-107.

Baron Davis recorded 23 points and 11 assists and Chris Kaman posted 22 points and 16 rebounds for Los Angeles, which has dropped 15 of 17 overall. Eric Gordon and Drew Gooden each scored 17 in defeat.

"We hurt ourselves by not defending their bigs, we also hurt ourselves at the free throw line," said Clippers coach Kim Hughes.

Portland center Marcus Camby, who pulled down 15 rebounds at Sacramento, will be facing his former team tonight for the first time since the Feb. 16 trade that sent him to the pacific northwest for guard Steve Blake and forward Travis Outlaw.

The Blazers have won five of their past six games with the Clippers, including two of three this season.
