Carmelo Anthony put up 27 points (9-of-16 FG, 6-of-7 FT), seven rebounds, three triples and one assist on Saturday as the Blazers fell to the Lakers 122-131 in Game 5, ending their post-season run.

Melo committed five turnovers and was slowed in spots thanks to his five fouls late in the game. The Blazers put up a strong effort, but in the end they didn't have enough to defeat the duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
