Brandon Roy scored 28 points and the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Sacramento Kings 110-94 on Friday night for their third straight victory and the 400th coaching victory of Nate McMillan's career.

“I’m really pleased with these guys," said McMillan. "To face the Kings and Golden State, games we really needed, our guys came out with a business-like approach. They played the game from start to finish in a back-to-back. Sometimes letdown is written all over a game like this."

Ahead by 15 at the half, the Trail Blazers came out strong in the third quarter in building the lead to as high as 26 points. Following a quiet first half with two points, LaMarcus Aldridge scored 12 in the period as Portland went ahead 87-66.

Roy scored 20 first-half points and helped the Blazers assume a 61-46 by intermission.

“Tonight, I wanted to come out and be aggressive," said Roy. "Coming off a back-to-back, I wanted to come out and play hard and let the team know that that was last night and this is another game. Second half, late in the third quarter, I wanted to be patient and get guys involved." continue
