Playoff time approaches
If the Blazers win in Houston this evening, or if Phoenix loses to Dallas this afternoon, the Blazers will make the pro basketball playoffs for the first time since the Bob "Nit" Whitsitt era, 2003. Somewhere in the closet we've got a Blazer flag, which has been collecting dust for many years. It could be time to break it out and fly it in front of the house.

I'm amazed this young team hasn't had an extended losing streak this season. The peaks and valleys haven't been too drastic... after a crushing or surprising loss, they always bounced back rather quickly.
We're likely to see 50+ wins, which has only happened 9 times in team history. If you put that in context of this team's experience level, it's quite impressive. I'm surprised this isn't the league story of the year. Maybe it will be when it's all said and done.
Go Blazers
