    It's because at this point, they are considered the underdogs. If we advance, it will be all about what the Rockets have to do to beat the Lakers.

    This may be so. In the other thread, I mentioned that the NBA TV announcers were narrating the game as if they were from Portland TV. The bias or prejudice is blatant.

    remember chicago bulls three years ago with hinrich-gordon-deng ? It's not a good thing to overhype a young team before they prove something. Personally I like Blazers, but I'm getting sick of this media thing day-by-day.
