    91 Portland probably should have beaten LA in the playoffs.
    91 Portland vs 91 Bulls may have been a closer matchup. Pippen and Grant were much better in 92 than 91.

    91 Portland won 63 games
    92 Portland 57

    On the other hand
    91 Bulls won 61
    92 they won 67.

    I believe the Blazers blew a 15 point 4th quarter lead in '92 vs the Bulls in game 6.

    Early 90s was the blazers
    2010’s was thunder
    2020’s Celtics

    Pretty much the Same exact teams…just a different generation

    Just history repeating itself

    Constantly #1 seed or seen as the best team on paper but always self destruct

    Facts, with MJ and Pippen in the bench at that. Smh.
