Trail Blazers hand Spurs another setback
November 7, 2009
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -Brandon Roy had 24 points and five rebounds, Steve Blake added 15 points and the Portland Trail Blazers got a lift from their new-look lineup in a 96-84 win over the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night.
Richard Jefferson had 19 points, Manu Ginobili had 17, and Tim Duncan added 14 points and eight rebounds, but San Antonio lost Tony Parker to a sprained ankle and couldn?t overcome a lethargic first half, playing one night after a loss at Utah.
The Spurs (2-3) haven?t won on the road yet this season.
In an effort to shake up the Blazers' stagnant offense, coach Nate McMillan inserted Andre Miller into the starting lineup, placing him in an expanded backcourt along with Blake and Roy.
