BLAZERS 85 MAGIC 95...RIP City looking for a "W" and MICKEY and MINNIE find themselves part of the "MOUSE Town MAGIC" Hoop Highlights...LOGO WATCH near International Drive with the O-MAGIC #MAGICnation #MAGUCfever #OMagicHoops

The Portland Trailblazers Check Engine Light has been On and then it went to Service Engine Soon. Now they lose in Mouse Town to the O-Magic and they have an Emissions Test Deadline among others things going on with that Blazer Mania Engine.

The Blazers having lost eight of their last eleven fell behind by 14 points after three frames after leading the Magic after one by the score of 26-23. Down by as much 16 in the 4th the Magic stun them Blazers sending them from at one point competing for the Northwest title to now falling into the back half of the Top Eight Teams in the West.  

The Magic wins 95-85 as Nikola Vucevic had 22 points and eleven boards behind Magic 3rd-year SF Tobias Harris. Harris came out of the Pen to get a game-high 25 points and haul in eleven Oranges. The O-Magic Back Court of Rook Star Victor Oladipo and Arron Affalo combined for 23 points, eight boards, and eleven helpers while committing eight turnovers. The Magic just got in front of the Blazers and Rip City could not recover.

The Blazers again without L-Train Aldridge have been struggling mightily as they have no real Inside Presence. Yes Big Robin Lopez led with 20 points and thirteen boards but that is few and far between as the Blazers don't get that Offensive Production every night from Lopez. Wes Matthews added 18 and Damian Lillard 17 as they were the only three Blazers in double figures. On a 2nd Night of a Back to Back Motel Swing as the Blazers lost in Miami last night 93-91...they needed this one in the worst way!

Blazers fall to 45-27 just a 1/2 game up on the #6 Warriors. The Magic headed for Lottery Heaven needs to lose a few more to get more Lottery Balls...what are they doing #Tank4Jabari.
