That it's been 10 years since game 7, or that it's been 20 years since the 1990 NBA finals?
 
for me... that is has been 33 yeas since we won a title :dunno:

I want another, and I want it now :ohno: LOL
 
33 years since the championship. I know that's longer than many of you have been alive, but I still remember how it felt and how we expected it to be just one of many that the Walton-led Blazers would win within a few years. Dreams can go poof pretty quickly in the NBA.

I hear ya. I was watching this game, below, from the sold-out Paramount Theater. Still remember running out onto Broadway, following the game, as if we'd just won the championship again..

In the 1978 season, (Lionel) Hollins twice beat the Bulls in heartbreaking fashion, including playing a key role in what is widely considered the best Blazers comeback ever.

Trailing the Bulls by four points at Memorial Coliseum, Portland scored with 16 seconds left to cut the lead to two and set the stage for Hollins.

After a timeout, Chicago inbounded at halfcourt, where Hall of Famer Norm Van Lier inbounded. Hollins stepped in front of his pass and raced down the court for a dunk to tie the game with seven seconds left. After another inbound at halfcourt, Bobby Gross tipped Van Lier's pass to Dave Twardzik, who fed Hollins for a game-winning layin with two seconds left.

"Besides winning the championship, that game versus Chicago when we came back and won, that is my best memory," Hollins said.
 
Also been 10 years since we won a playoff series.
