ROTATION: Starters -- Point guard Steve Blake, Shooting guard Brandon Roy, Small forward Martell Webster, Power forward LaMarcus Aldridge, Center Greg Oden. Bench -- Forward Travis Outlaw, Guard Rudy Fernandez, Guard Andre Miller, Center Joel Przybilla.
PLAYER NOTES: --G Andre Miller had some great moments, dishing out 11 assists -- most by a Blazer this season -- while setting up Greg Oden and LaMarcus Aldridge for dunks on sensational passes. But Miller's shot was off; he made only 1-of-6 attempts from the field.
--G Steve Blake couldn't buy a shot, making only 2-of-10 a game after sinking 6-of-9 in a win at Oklahoma City.
--C Greg Oden was in foul trouble early again. He managed to stay on the court only 16 minutes, contributing eight points and nine boards.
MEDICAL WATCH:
--F Nicolas Batum had surgery Friday in Los Angeles to repair a torn right labrum. He'll be lost at least until the All-Star break.
--F Jeff Pendergraph underwent hip surgery in September. The rookie probably won't be available until around Christmas.
--G Patty Mills underwent surgery to repair a broken leg in July. His return won't happen for at least another two months.
