It looked like Portland would put the game away in the third quarter, taking a commanding 66-50 lead with just over four minutes left. After a tough first half, Brandon Roy carried the Blazers during a 20-6 run to oepn the third quarter, scoring 11 point during that stretch.
But Seattle managed to cut the lead to 70-62 at the end of the third. Kevin Durant leads Seattle with 19 points. No other starter is in double figures, which is a problem as the Blazers can focus their attention on Durant.
Seattle also is getting killed on the offensive boards, giving up 17 offensive rebounds to Portland.
