That 89-92 blazers squad was deceptively good. Everyone on the team looked like an old ass buster at the rec, but they could ball. Kersey, buck williams and duckworth especially looked wack as hell but were good then.

If so, RIP.
If not, lets make this an appreciation thread.

that team is the posterchild for bad timing....they had to face Magic's Lakers, Isiah's Pistons, and Mike's Bulls

:sad::sad: Goddammit. Just got to work n saw this.

No lie I was at my parents' place this past weekend n saw the '87 all-star Saturday VHS tape sitting in the collection. That was when an unknown Kersey came outta nowhere n challenged Mike for the crown. I remember Rick Barry, color commentating, had him as his dark horse before the competition even started. Prolly watched that tape 200 times as a kid.

R.I.P. Big Kerss

I think I Had that same video breh. :ohhh: Seen it a million times

Dang...I just watched him in that Sam Bowie doc on SECN. Not even low key, Blazers had mad talent back then...too bad they had some all-time squads in their way, though.

As an aside, I'd never seen the actual injury that basically triggered all those leg problems later in Bowie's career. No wonder it did...that looked so awkward and painful.

:rip:, #25.
