TRAIL BLAZERS 83, THUNDER 74
At Oklahoma City, Steve Blake scored 18 points and Brandon Roy finished with 16 as Portland earned a split of a two-game trip.
Roy made just four of his first 16 shots before finally finding a way to hurt Oklahoma City at the free throw line. While Kevin Durant continued to misfire on jump shots for the Thunder, Roy worked his way into the lane repeatedly to earn trips to the foul line and help Portland inch away.
His three-point play off a driving layup gave the Trail Blazers a 70-62 lead with 3:59 to play.
Russell Westbrook led Oklahoma City with 23 points but also matched his career-high with nine turnovers.
Jeff Green added 19 points and 11 rebounds, and Durant scored 16 points on 3-for-21 shooting as the Thunder shot just 34 percent.
