Portland Trail Blazers Tickets
The Portland Trail Blazers have been bringing basketball to the Northwest since 1970. Thos first few seasons were difficult, but the team grew around Bill Walton. After Maurice Lucas was added to the team through the ABA dispersal draft, the Trail Blazers turned things around quickly. Portland finished the season 49-33, getting into the playoffs for the first team after posting its first winning record.
Walton was the focus of the team. His incredible defense and offense (whether rebounding, blocking shots, scoring, or passing) took the surprise team to the NBA championship, beating the Philadelphia 76ers in six games. Fans salivated over the possibility of a dynasty, but the oft injured Walton left the team in 1979, unhappy with the medical treatment he was receiving.
Lucas soon left and the Portland Trail Blazers had to start over. This time, the team quickly picked up key players like Clyde Drexler, Jim Paxson, Mychael Thompson, and Wayne Cooper. The team became a constant threat in the 1980s, but reached the NBA Finals in 1992 with Drexler, Kevin Duckworth, Jerome Kersey, Buck Williams, and Terry Porter. The team that had weathered the Houston Rockets, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Detroit Pistons met the Chicago Bulls in the finals.
Michael Jordan led the Bulls to victory in six games and that chapter with that roster ended. The team remained a playoff team, but first round losses were all that the postseason held for the Portland Trail Blazers until 1999. Fresh off the players strike, the Blazers went to the conference finals. Portland was back with players like Rasheed Wallace, Arvydas Sabonis, Scottie Pippen, and Damon Stoudamire. This time the Lakers and the Spurs blocked their path.
The team, unable to overcome the eventual champions seemingly every year, broke down into a dark period called the Jail Blazers. Since those days in the early years of the first decade of the 21st century, the team has moved on and started with a new collection of talent.

Portland Trail Blazers 2009-10 Season Preview
|
 The Portland Trail Blazers, a team that was already extremely deep and talented, still sought to improve themselves with the acquisitions of point guard Andre Miller and power forward Juwan Howard. If Greg Oden remains healthy while developing into a legitimate force at center, and star Brandon Roy along with Rudy Fernandez, Nicolas Batum, and Jerryd Bayless, all play to their high quality potential, expect the Blazers to play deep into the playoffs. While coach Nate McMillan's Blazers may have fallen short against Houston in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, for a team which had not made the postseason since 2003, the past season in Portland was still rated as an unqualified success. Brandon Roy continued to excite fans at the Rose Garden, en route to averaging 23 points and 5 assists per game, while leading Portland back to the playoffs. With the combo of Roy and forward LaMarcus Aldridge continuing to gel, the Trail Blazers have a strong foundation for the future, and onward and upward certainly seems to be the justified message in Portland. With Brandon Roy being signed for the next five years, if newly-signed point guard Andre Miller can blend into the mix, the Blazers could very well go deeper into the playoffs this year. Putting aside the crystal ball, the main thing that seems to be preventing Portland from being a true title contender is their situation at center; Greg Oden, once so imposing for Ohio State, is working like crazy in practice, and needs to regain the fearsome qualities which made the Blazers choose him with the first overall pick in the 2007 NBA Draft, over Kevin Durant. If this team is to become a member of the NBA's upper echelon, the center of attention needs to finally be the emergence of Oden and the continued improvement of Portland's young role players. This is a team on the move, so get your Rose Garden tickets and come watch the 2009-2010 Portland Trail Blazers as they climb the ladder to the NBA playoffs and challenge those ahead of them for the championship as well.
