The Trailblazers turned up the defense last night as they held the Hornets to 39.1% shooting from the floor in this game. Martell Webster led the way for the Blazers with 20 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. Jarrett Jack had a really solid game off of the bench with 20 points and 4 rebounds. Brandon Roy also played well as he finished up with 17 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. The Trailblazers are now 1-3 on the season.
The Trailblazers have decided to replace Jarrett Jack in the starting lineup with Steve Blake. Jack has not played well so far this season and it’s hurting the whole offense. Jack has played in 3 games this season and he’s averaging 24.7 minutes, 2.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Blake is a better shooter than Jack and that could open up some things inside for the Blazers front line. Blake has played in 3 games this season for the Blazers and he is averaging 26.3 minutes, 6.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game. This should improve the offense for the Blazers. It will be interesting to see Jarrett Jack handles his demotion to the bench because he could get his job back if he plays well.
