Davis Calls Trail Blazers "A Pack Of Roaches"

Late in the second quarter of last night's game, Ricky Davis told the Trail Blazers bench their team was "a pack of roaches." No one in Portland's locker room took that insult lightly.

Considering Martell Webster said about Davis' comment, "...if you have any pride, hearing something like that puts a chip on your shoulder," it should be no surprise that he was the one who both tied the game and gave the team its first lead in the 4th quarter. After a great start, the Wolves couldn't finish and lost to the "roaches", 88-86.

Ricky Davis' response after the game: "I'm a guy who likes to talk. I'm glad that motivated them."
