The Trail Blazers have been in business for over 40 years. Over that time a lot of players have donned the red, white & black. And over that same time span, styles and trends have changed right along with the players. As I've been collecting photos for the historical players to put in their photo galleries, I noticed the changes throughout the decades and started to think. Which Trail Blazer had the best hair style?

It was a tough decision between the flattop and Rasta's dreads, but I was a child of the early 90's and nothing was better than a flattop (heck, I even had one!) and nobody did it better than Mark Bryant.

SHAFT err I mean Sidney Wicks! Not only did he have that afro blown out but he had the side burns to boot.

Went with Big Red. Not only did it look like he hadn't had a trim in decades but he wore the fabric headband over his forehead. Bill really embraced the whole long hair, don't care mantra.

That's because the most awesome part of Brian Grants hair, is it made that haistyle available for your "create-a-player" in video games. Anybody could be the Rasta-Monsta!

Even before I saw the candidates my thought on best hair style was the Mark Bryant flat top. And then...there it was! Voted.

I am a fan of being the team to fear in the Western Conference!

all are good, but i just can't vote against Mark Bryant's flat top -- which is only enhanced by his goofy expression in that photo!

LaRue Martin had a better fro than Wicks. It was HUGE.

And I liked Uncle Cliffy's HTP more than Bryant's. But I think Cliff had those photos scrubbed from the web.

Originally, I wanted to put up a poll about which Blazer had the best flattop and I actually had Cliff's in mind. I knew he kept it really high and tight his rookie year but I couldn't find photos of that anywhere. While LaRue's fro was bigger, I think Wick's kept his in better proportion :D

Anyways, the voting has closed and Mark Bryant narrowly edged out Brian Grant for the best hairstyle! Thank you to everyone who voted.

Sug I would start with him outscoring Wesley Matthews. He also needs to get his FTA up and his FG% up and cut down the turnovers.

His defense was decent last year but not that good as he is either too weak or just unwil...

why is everyone high on Shabazz. He can''t shoot and he thinks he''s the next best thing to Lebron. His attitude is not positive.

I love hearing Mark Jackson talk he and Curry''s shooting got me believing they could win it all, but well you guys know
I dont get it?

Cmeese, you want to trade Aldridge too? Seems like you only care that the championships are under the Blazer name, and you''re willing to throw anyone under the bus to get it.

I love the Grit and Grind, and I love the Spurs timeless play. I think if the Spurs get to the finals, they will beat the heat, but they won''t beat the Grizzlies easily, and the Grizz can''t beat the Heat. I know it''s weird.
