Who should the Blazers want in the first round of the playoffs?
With only four games to go until the playoffs, the Blazers are in great position to secure home court advantage in the first round. Who is the most favorable matchup for Portland?
Earlier this week I posted a Twitter poll asking which team fans would want the Blazers play first round of the playoffs. Oklahoma City overwhelmingly won with 42% of the vote – sweeping the season series has Portland confident against its Northwest Division rivals.
Alright #RipCity, with only 4 games to play until the playoffs, who do you want to play in the first round?
