    The most decimated team in NBA history still managing to bang out wins while staying in the playoff hunt certainly is is worthy of such an article.

    Oh, yeah, we're the Blazers.....not the Celts, Lakers, or Cavs...who would have had an article weeks ago.

    Uhm, that only counts for the cover.....which this team would NEVER get short of wining the championship. Even that's debatable.

    I forget, weren't the 76ers on the cover the year we won? I do remember the entire SI story was about the 76ers not winning the title, and not about the Blazers winning it.

    Poor Celtics. How will they ever manage to deal with all of those booboos?

    Even after all these years, the 3rd and 4th covers make my blood boil. Lord, I hate that ass-hat.
