Owner Real Deal Posted November 19, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 http://sports.cbsimg.net/u/photos/basketball/nba/img21049166.jpg PORTLAND, Ore. -- Wesley Matthews was kind of taken aback when he was told that Portland's last three-game winning streak came in the Trail Blazers' first three games of last season. The Blazers had been unable to string a trio of wins together since then until Sunday night, when they beat the Chicago Bulls 102-94. "It feels good, getting our juices going, our confident going," said Matthews, who had 21 points. "We're finally playing like a team that knows how to win." The other two wins, a 103-89 victory at Sacramento before a 119-117 overtime victory over Houston at the Rose Garden on Friday, came after a three-game losing streak. As for it being the longest winning streak since the Blazers opened last season with three wins, Matthews shook his head. Portland finished the lockout season 28-39, capped by a seven-game losing streak. "Last season was such a debacle," he said. "I don't want to talk about it for the rest of my life." Nicolas Batum also scored 21 points and LaMarcus Aldridge added 18 points and 13 rebounds as all of Portland's starters were in double figures.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20121118_CHI@POR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
