THE FACTS: Rudy Gay has hit his share of game-tying and game-winning shots during his career with the Memphis Grizzlies. Credit Portland's Nicolas Batum for studying those shots. Batum was well aware that Gay likes to go to his right in crunch-time moments. So, with 2.1 seconds left in Friday night's game, Batum forced Gay to go to his left as he launched a jumper that clanged off the rim to seal the Trail Blazers' 86-84 win at FedExForum. Portland has now won eight of its last 11 games after starting the year 9-12.
