Yes, I know. I made this video a day before the lottery. It would be pretty damn incredible to pick the whole order of the draft lottery before it was drawn. Anyways, yes '77 was great and with the help of the events of May 22nd we will hopefully have many more "Best Days" to come.
Best Day in Blazer History?!?! I don't think so! June 5, 1977 the Blazer defeat the favored 76ers in Six Games to win their one and only NBA Championship. Now that's the best day in franchise history.
i said it on another vidoe, and i'll say it here. its a shame Blazers are gettin Oden. How many Blazers game's get televised nationwide? rarely any. So he'll be a hometown hero. He wont get into any allstar game anytime soon, i'll tell ya that.
nabi u dont know shit do you know why there werent many blazer games televised? maybe because they suck they got screwed over last year so its payback time he will be watched by many now that they actually got some talent especialy getting steve francis from ny they'll be good next year
Finally the basketball Gods have smiled upon on Portland and have resurrected RIP CITY! Its just gods way of rewarding Portland for not tanking games at the end of the season like some other teams, I'm not gonna mention names but we all know who they are. Not since Labron and Mellow have two draft picks have so much potential to make an immediate impact. I look forward to the day when the Portland Trail Blazers play ball in June!
As a Sonic fan, I am so happy to see the top 2 picks in the deepest draft since '84 go to the northwest. It will make the I-5 Rivalry one of the best in the league, something Stern should be happy to see. This makes it much more likely we stay here.
I saw the result on ESPNews, and had to look back at the screen a few times before I would believe it!!! Both potential picks have already expressed a desire to go all out for Portland.
I appreciate it, but I'm not going to take any responsiblity for what happened. This has been a long time coming for us Blazer fans. We have definitely had our ups and DOWNS... Now we get to ride this wave for years to come!!! AS KP put it, "RIP CITY IS BACK, BABY!"
just don't pass on a "jordan-type" player this time LOL! i doubt that will happen though but yesterday was good & bad for my lakers cuz the hawks got the 3rd pick which was good cuz then they don't give a high draft pick to the suns, but the bad was that the blazers got the #1 pick & they will be good next season.
you getting the #1 pick is not good for my lakers, but the suns not getting a high draft pick is LOL, anyways the pacific division is gonna be a mine-field next year.
NICE video .. NBA finals in Portland in 4 years .. if Zach goes and Darius goes we will be heading the right way .. Zach gets numbers but cant play "D" gotta go Zach !!
HELL YEAH, I LOVE THE PICTURE AT THE END, we are definitely going to pick Greg Oden no question, Jerry Moss- the lead event coordinator for the blazers and talent scou goes to my church, and they are trading Darius Miles, and might trade ZBoll hog... oh yeah theres no way were winning the championship, but well get to the playoffs
I slept throuigh the draft didnt want to watch it you know how our luck is. i have a dream and we got the 8th pick. woke up to a message saying yo portland got the #1. i confirmed it and i still think this is some type of joke. we NEVER get any slack or anythihng good coming for us. this video might have been THE lucky charm
You guys are lucky, but a serious question. Would drafting Durant not make more sense for this particular team as currently constructed. PG-Jack/Rodriguez SG-Roy SF-Durant PF-Randolph C-Aldridge As opposed to drafting Oden, which would lead them to have to trade Randolph or Aldridge because neither can play SF, or would have to come off the bench. PG-Jack/Rodriguez SG-Roy SF-? PF-Randolph-trade/Aldridge C-Oden Just saying, wondering what others think.
Aldridge would come off the bench regardless. We only started him at C because Przybilla got injured for the season. We need a Center more then we do SF. Pryzbilla's always injured.
I think all of us here in Portland, and Blazer fans everywhere had a feeling about this one!! Go Blazers, thanks for the feedback! Welcome, Mr. Oden!
Yes, it would. The Bowie pick was the right move. The consensus was to draft a dominant big man. Nobody predicted MJ to turn out how he did. It's an overrated blunder brought up by people who still call them the Jail Blazers.
unfortunately, steve francis is now again with the rockets, THEY NEED TO GIVE AWAY McGRADY HE'S A PIECE OF CRAP!

I think the "hope" here in Portland, is to draft Oden, trade Randolph for Rashard Lewis, and start Aldrige at PF.
PG - Jack/Rodriguez
SG - Roy/Jones/Webster
SF - Lewis/Udoka/Outlaw
PF - Aldrige/Outlaw/LaFrentz
C - Oden/Przybilla/ LaFrentz
