This is the Sports Illustrated article Mike & Mike referred to, in which this year's Blazers are referred to as only the coming attraction. Good read.

Arguably one of my favorite articles i've read this year... the compliments kept coming. Wow, great read. Strongly recommend this...

"They might be the deepest, most-talented team in the league," Popovich said.

There had to be a misunderstanding. Either Popovich thought I was asking about the Lakers or I misheard his answer about the Blazers.

No misunderstanding.

Deepest. Most talented.

The Portland Trail Blazers.

"I think so," Popovich said. "You look at some of those young players. I think that the Lakers fit together really well and they've got everything covered, and Phil's done a great job pulling them together. But when you look at six-seven-eight-nine-10 [in the rotation], Portland's got some hellacious depth. And like you said, Webster's not even on the court. Very athletic. Very long. Nate [McMillan] has done a great job with them. Defensively, they've gotten better and better as the year has gone on. They believe in themselves now. I think they're a monster."

Imagine when they get good.

It's just a sign that the rest of the league is aware of the impending doom.
