The Blazers lost another close one on Friday, ugh. They battled back from a 22 point deficit and traded blows right until the final buzzer, but in the end it was a little known player named Yogi Ferrell, an undersized point guard on a 10 day rookie contract, who scored the killer blows. Yogi was […]

The last time these two teams met, just about two weeks ago in Charlotte, the Blazers got blown out by 22 points. This game on Blazers home turf was a much different affair. The crowd gave a warm cheer as former Blazer Nic Batum was introduced in Charlotte’s starting line up. Nic looked pretty good, […]

It’s always a little special when the Lakers come to town. The fans have fun because they get to yell “Beat LA!” and on this night there was a classy halftime celebration of the the legendary 1977 championship Blazers with most of the living members of that team present, including big Bill Walton. The Blazers […]

Sure, Cleveland was tired, having played the night before and arriving in snowbound Portland at 2:30 am. But so were the Blazers. They played the night before too, and got diverted to Seattle for a 3:30 am landing on their way home. So we’ll call it even. This was a nationally televised game, a big […]

“Well, it was a heck of game,” said coach Stotts at the post game press conference, shaking his head. He was right about that. The lead changed 14 times over the course of the night, with 11 ties. Both teams played well, and Portland shooting guard Alan Crabbe had a career night, scoring 30 points […]

The buzz in the Moda Center before this game was all about the return of Dame. He’d been out for five games with a sprained ankle and even though the Blazers looked pretty good without their star player, everyone wanted Lillard back. He had been listed as “probable” that afternoon and a loud ovation filled […]

The Trailblazers arrived home from an awful road trip having lost four in a row, including a heartbreaking one point loss to the evil LA Clippers the night before. OKC is a good team and apparently the Blazers hadn’t gotten back to Portland until 2 am so this second night of back-to-back games could have […]

The Miami Heat rolled into town a depleted squad with only 9 of their 15 players available. Still, they had their star guard Goran “The Dragon” Dragic, and kick-ass big man Hassan Whiteside, so our Blazers had their work cut out for them. The Blazers handled the job pretty well, all things considered, and came […]

It’s easy not to like the Rockets and their star guard James “The Beard” Harden. One way or another this team has ended up breaking the hearts of Blazer’s fans for years. Plus, Harden’s a serious flopper, as well as a frustratingly good shooter. Of course, Portland did get some very sweet revenge on this […]

It was Coach Stott’s birthday and everyone in Blazersland wanted to give him a win. The Blazers had returned from a punishing east coast road trip during which they lost four out of five, including one to this same New Orleans team. Fortunately things turned out better on this night and the Blazers beat a […]

Wow, this game was a real stinker for the Blazers. It was just one of those nights, as they say. Nothing really went right for our guys and Bulls led the entire game. The final score was 88-113 and it was never even close. The look on Dame’s face says it all Courtesy Trail Blazers […]

I’ll admit I’ve been waiting some time for a chance to use that “Blazers Smoke Nuggets” headline, and now that time has finally come. Our hometown Blazers did indeed smoke some tasty Nuggets on an early Sunday night game at the Moda Center. It was a somewhat sloppy effort, to be honest, but a super […]
