Historical Milestones
The Portland Trail Blazers are an NBA team that plays in the Western Conference of the NBA and they are part of the Norwest Division. Ever since 1995, the Trail Blazers have played their home games at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon. The Blazers came into the league as an expansion team in 1970 and would win the NBA Finals for the first time just seven years later in 1977. The first great Trailblazer team was that team of 1977, with star center Bill Walton leading the way. Walton averaged 18.2 points per game, with a crazy 15.2 rebounds and 5.5 assists in the playoffs that year leading the Blazers to their first title. Walton was the NBA Finals MVP for his performance. While the team did not successfully defend their title the next season, Walton continued to improve his game and won the MVP for the regular season.
Clyde Drexler was another great player in Trail Blazers history, and he had his great run with the team in the 1980s and 1990s. Drexler never won an NBA Finals, but he got his team to the Finals twice, in 1990 and 1992. Drexler ended up becoming a Hall of Famer and won a championship of his own with the Rockets after he left Portland. In 2006, LaMarcus Aldridge was drafted second overall by the Chicago Bulls and was promptly traded to the Blazers. Aldridge spent the best years of his career as the star player in Portland, where he was a four-time All-Star. Brandon Roy was a great player in Portland that unfortunately had his career shortened due to bad knees. At the height of his powers, he was a 20 point scorer for Portland and went to three straight All-Star games between 2008-2010. Now the Trail Blazers are led by one of the best backcourts in the NBA in Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum, as they look to win another NBA Championship.
