Some random things I enjoy about the blazers...

No I know that. I mean the fact that they block the shots that come after the whistle. It just makes me laugh, and imo, makes it appear that they're taking the game way more seriously than the opponent.

Joel is the master of it

When Darius let's his hair down.

I love that this is now the norm

As one West personnel man says: "Why are San Antonio, Phoenix and Dallas so nervous? Portland was supposed to be rebuilding and you see what they're doing. And the Lakers are for real, I'm telling you."

Adds one Western Conference scout: "I really don't want to pile on, but it feels like I'm watching the junior varsity when I have to go to a game [in the East]. The teams are worse, the games are worse and some of the arenas are half-empty."

What do I love?

Other teams are afraid of the Blazers.
Outside shooting!
Never giving up.
Oden interviews.
How much fun the players seem to be having.
Nate having success again.
Wins.

My favorites so far:

Travis Outlaw interviews

Charles Barkley McLovin

Brandon Roy's voice in general

The way LaMarcus Aldridge runs

Jarret Jack looking chineese ( no offense) when he squints his eyes

I like our logo. The pinwheel. People always ask me "wtf is that thing?" haha

I love Travis' jab step to fallaway jumper that is absolutely unguardable and goes in all the time.

Yea, I also love the Channing Frye shot swatting of shots that weren't going to count anyway.

One more that comes to mind is the way Sergio waves his arms to pump up the crowd when the Blazers go on a 4-0 run.

And the player introductions at the Rose Garden! Love that music, the procession from the tunnel to center court of the Blazerdancers, the fans going crazy when Roy is introduced... gets me pumped every time.
