    For 29 teams, the last game is a loss.
    For 22 teams, the second round is a fantasy.

    Last year, the playoffs were so distant, it looked hopeless.

    This year, the Portland Trail Blazers were in the top eight. They were in the top eight during the regular season, and proved that was legitimate by being one of eight teams remaining in the playoffs. Yes, there are questions. Yes, there is some pain. But to go from one of the 14 outside looking in to one of the eight needing just a little bit more? That's pretty amazing.

    I'm going to take a while and just enjoy what we got this season.

    We got better. We proved the critics wrong. We proved ourselves legitimate.

    :cheers:

    Hear hear. Opening night on TNT, none of the four guys in the studio picked us to make the playoffs. Even LaMarcus only picked us to get the 7th seed, lol. Gotta raise our expectations next year.
