Oregon Is Faster
Not sure many of you had had the opportunity to watch this team. But it is awesome. Considering all they lost this off-season, these guys are competing for the 7th seed in the West.
Sure, they may get swept in the first round vs the Spurs (or GS) if they obtain that 7th seed, or the 8th seed, but kudos to Portland for not "tanking" and battling for a playoff spot, even though they may get swept right away.
It is refreshing to see a franchise actually trying their best to get into the last few spots of the playoffs. Shows they have pride and want a winning mindset. Now if only Portland's front office could give Lillard and co some big names to play with. LOTS of cap space to use, hopefully Neil Olshey spends this offseason.
Nonetheless, if you do get a chance to watch these guys, I recommend it. They are nothing special, but they are fun to watch because they young guys put their hearts on the line every night.
