2.) Comeback Complete: Blazers Enter Into Tie for 8th Seed

Mar. 28th provided a crucial point of the season: The Blazers and Nuggets were only separated by a game, with both in action. Denver was set to take on New Orleans and Portland was ready to take on LA.

Before the Blazers started their game, Denver dropped their game to New Orleans and the playoffs were a win away.

With their destiny in their own hands, Portland took care of business.

Lillard led the way with 22 points, but the other contributors got a chance to shine as the starters sat. Allen Crabbe dropped in 18 points off the bench. Noah Vonleh had an impressive eight-point, 14 rebound performance. Meyers Leonard even got in the action with eight points.

The outcome set up the biggest game of the month, and the season, with Denver.

It did not disappoint, to say the least.
