Blazers go up 2-1 after 140-137 win in 4 OTs over Denver
PORTLAND, Ore. — Rodney Hood checked back into the game, a fresh body among the weary ones all over the court.
Eager for post-season redemption after struggling in the playoffs last year, Hood got his chance Friday night.
All he had to do was wait until an NBA post-season record-tying fourth overtime.
Hood hit the key 3-pointer with 18.6 seconds left and the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Denver Nuggets 140-137 to take a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.
