There’s plenty of reason for high-fiving (even some mild knuckle-bumping), as The Blazers beat up the New York Knicks last night, 92-86.

This “must win” game for The Knicks went terribly awry against a Blazers team that is still missing leading scorer Zach Randolph, who remains on bereavement leave. A delighted Paul Allen (sitting next to his very attractive girlfriend and the not-so-attractive Dan Aykroyd) watched as Brandon Roy scored 24 points and Jamal Magloire didn’t embarrass himself. The team (and possibly Randolph) travels to Hotlanta to play the Hawks tonight.
