The Portland Trailblazers were cruising through Texas having beat the Spurs and Mavs back to back and then they get a Reality Check. That Check was last night in Clutch City as the Red Nation Rockets go Summer League Rules and put 126 Big One on Rip City for an "L" in Texas. Now the plot thickens as they have "Northwest Division Business" going Classified versus the Regulators as we are all knotted up at 31-10.
