Forum friend Kris Kovisto has put together a great list of the 10 Top Blazer Moments of last year. It's pretty awesome! If you like it leave a comment here and I'll make sure he sees it. Those guys put in long hours of work on stuff like this and a little encouragement goes a long way.

What's your favorite moment? (besides "The Shot")
 
In his home state of Texas, Aldridge put the team on his back in Game 1, scoring a franchise playoff record 46 points (17-31 FG) to go along with 18 rebounds. The incredible performance also made LA the first NBA player to record 30-plus points, 15-plus rebounds and 2-plus blocked shots in a playoff game since Hakeem Olajuwon in 1987.
Hot Damn! That is Cray-Cray!

And then:

And just to prove that 46 points wasn't a fluke, Aldridge went out three nights later and netted 43 points (18-28 FG) to go along with eight rebounds and three blocked shots. Portland took Game 2 as well, heading back home with a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-seven series. LA joined Michael Jordan, Jerry West, Allen Iverson and Tracy McGrady in an exclusive club of NBA players to score 89-plus points in the first two games of a playoff series.
This is the stuff of legend. Somehow, it doesn't feel like Aldridge gets enough credit for his entire body of work that series.
