    I watched the ESPN highlights and I was hoping for some love from ESPN. Sure enough, nothing new, ESPN showed the 23 point lead for mavs and then cut to a 4 point play where we tied it. ESPN made it sound like a casual win for the Blazers. If this win didn't get ESPN on our *****s, nothing will.

    We've always known what we have in Portland with our Trailblazers. The national media and what they think or report on in regards to the Blazers just doesn't matter to me. After 25+ years as a Blazer fan it's always been the same treatment by the press. I don't feel jilted by the lack of credit in the national spotlight anymore. Rip City Forever!!!!!!!!!!

    It's ok, ESPN is east coast bias to begin with.

    wow dude, you must of had the channel on PBS or something, i had to turn off the TV because on EVERY DAMN CHANNEL , ESPN, local news, NBA TV it was all about Portland. all portland.
    \Brandon Roy this

    Brandon Roy that

    Brandon Roy did, with a Brandon Roy, and a Brandon Roy swirl.....
    it was  wayy too much. stop lying and making it seem that portland is the child out of wedlock/bastard son its so easy to play the possum of the league.
    however it takes skill to be the lion, the king of the jungle, and its no surprise that portland isnt, because its fans hae already made up their minds on everything..........

    Didn't watch TV after the game, but if what you say is true Tay. It's about damn time. Because usually it's LeBron Jamesdid, with a LeBron James, and a LeBron James swirl...or Kevin Durant did, with a Kevin Durant, and a Kevin Durant swirl. You get the point.

    The night was historic in many respects...being the 3rd greatest playoff comeback, you have to talk about it.

    hahahaha. man you guys are tough to convince..
    i live in CA, Southern California to tell you the truth....

    i was out at a relatives who lives near palm springs, the local news, 11:30 pm, the guy did a special on the portland game, and for the 7th time that night, i relieved that epic 4th quarter.......

    They were trippin on ZBo 3 shot, but down here, in California, ESPN was all about Brandon Roy and the Portland Trailblazers, maybe ya'll should take it to city council " t.v. censorship revision" idk.

    like ask yourself, why would i lie or make something like this up. hahahaha

    Brandon re-wrote 'The Natural' with his performance in game 4.  Rest assured, Robert Redford won't be playing the lead however.  Now, all we can do is hope.  Hope that game 4 wasn't the end of his movie, but rather, the beginning.  Truly a storybook ending.  Difficult to write fiction any more compelling than that epic fourth.  Nice to see such positive things happen for an individual as deserving as any in his or her profession.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
