Time out. The Stunt Team. You have to wonder why the blonde in the middle is smiling. Well, not really. She's a professional. But keep looking and you'll see why I wondered.

See what I mean?

DSC_0469p
She's still going.

DSC_0470p
She lands! Another goes airborne!

Suffice it to say, the girl on the left went airborne. Both of them got caught. The girl in the middle got popped back up. And here you see the end result of all of that hard, hard work. Amazing.

DSC_0485pHere's the dismount, I suppose you call it. Amazing.

This wide shot gives you an idea of the distance between the court and the camera. Pretty good lens!

DSC_0571p
A bit blurry, but here's what's happening. Six-foot-two-inch Cleveland Cavalier Daniel Gibson puts his hand in the face of six-foot-inch Portland Trail Blazer Patrick "Patty" Mills. Patty's the one who originated the the three goggles nickname. He's also He is one of the first Indigenous Australians to play basketball in the NBA. We love him here in Portland!

Six-foot-seven inch Gerald Wallace flies! He's our newest Blazer!

Gerald and the ball land on the floor at about the same second, it looks like. There we have another example of those blooming shorts.

The score at half time--Blazers 64, Cavaliers 34.

Come back tomorrow for the third quarter.
