Number five?

As a Trail Blazers fan it brings a smile to my face, but I'm not sure I can agree... maybe I'm just being cautious?

I can see them being in the playoffs next season. Great team last season, full of young players, and full of potential. There shouldn't be an excuse not making the playoffs next season.

Protip: Preseason power rankings don't mean anything.

i grew up as a Blazers fan and abandoned them when the entire team had 56 illegitimate kids and a rap sheet longer than the Waterfront

I grew up watching every single game... then game the meltdown... They already had some shady people, but after 2000 they moved to just a class A shit-list of players who didn't try, got in trouble off court, and generally didn't care about the fans.

This last year, watching the videos, seeing their interviews and their competitive spirit (even when down, they kept playing and rarely got blown out) I have turned to following every move again.

Plus watching the GM do these trade deals is a lot of fun :D

Too bad for Brandon Rush, his face sunk when he got traded :[

if the Blazers didn't bother with such bags of shit as Rider and Stoudamire then it wouldn't have been so bad, but they were just inexcusable
