    I'm more tired of having the second best record of the league (behind the Pacers).

    That schedule looks rather easy. I think we can sweep. I'll do my part by attending the LAC, Miami, and OKC games.

    Then win a title. Something that 1990-91 team didn't do.

    I remember that team. the thing about it, it was a bunch of guys I cheered on for years and years. This blazers team just kind of jelled out of nowhere, so I hold more memories with that early 90s team. wouldn't mind beating the record, but shit, I remember fam shelling out like $30 a GAME to watch that shit on Blazers cable...such an exciting time....the perfect quarter!

    The 1990-91 Blazers had a record of 27-3, entering the 4th game in 5 nights on the road (2 back-2-backs).

    Portland lost their 4th game to the Bucks, and returned home to face the Fakers 2 days later, who they lost to.

    For this year's Blazers to pull ahead of the pace set by that 1990-91 team, they need to go 7-0 starting tomorrow night:

    @ Clev
    @ Min (2nd of a b2b, 4th game in 5 nights)
    - (2 days off)
    NO
    - (4 days off)
    LAC
    - (1 day off)
    MIA
    - (1 day off/travel)
    @NO
    @OKC (2nd of a b2b)


    That 1990-91 team finished 63-19, ironically perhaps losing their last game of the season @ Phx.

    Perfect quarter. From court side so there are a few talking segments. Just watching that gives me the chills

    Well the 90-91 team didn't make it to the finals, so we need to at least make it there.

    Just a throwback......

    [video=youtube;YLvTGBy-ESg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLvTGBy-ESg[/video]

    are we in one of the typical Blazers cycles of lofty expectations, only to be met with massive disappointment.

    COTTTAM I WISH NBA was still on NBC with COSTAS intros.

    I loved NBC's coverage of the NBA finals! Way better than ABC/ESPN
