    Yes, that's why we picked a Laker game.

    Didn't we get blown the fuck out for the early 90s blazer night. I think that was against LA too?

    Oden also went down against Houston when they were wearing the 77' jerseys.

    All you Chicken Littles and Negative Nancies...

    Novemeber 3, 1989, the Portland Trail Blazers retired Bill Walton's jersey. I was there (still have two of the posters they gave to all of the fans in attendance). They beat the Sacramento Kings 114 - 96, went onto win, a then franchise record, 59 games and advanced to the NBA finals.

    Tonight they are honoring that entire team, not just one player. Championship coming soon!!! I can feel it!

    Special night jinxes? Is that what you call it when you're having troubles in the bedroom, Prez?

    Kinda sad (maddening too) that Blazers broadcasting not doing local broadcast on KGW or CSN. ESPN isn't going to show pre/half/post game stuff we'd all be interested in seeing.

    Lost opportunity!

    All the employees who broadcast the game don't want to miss out on the private reception with the players and pre/half/post game stuff.

    retired, while you work!
    After watching the Walton interview, I was filled with energy. I was hyper for the rest of the game and still am.

    I now understand his era's Blazer Mania, a maniacal energy. His energy transferred to his teammates, which won them games, and transferred to the fans.

    It's hard to perform when you are out of breath from inflating her.
