“I thought it was a good block,” McMillan said. “That game should have been over.”

“I don’t want to sound rude, but it doesn’t really matter now,” he said. “They made shots in overtime, and we didn’t, and they got some calls their way, and they win the game.”
Now having said that we all know full well Nate McMillan knows the NBA frowns on coaches criticizing officials, and he could incur a fine for saying that.

At the end of the day I guess the Blazers only really have themselves to blame. The call alone did not lose the game for Portland.

But it sure as hell helped.

What a game by Aldridge none the less though. Aldridge took advantage of note being double-teamed to score a season-high 39 points.
