Redoing the Blazers 2019 Playoff Run
As the disappointing 2019-20 season pauses for the foreseeable future, it becomes hard not to reminisce about the Portland Trail Blazers improbable run in last year’s playoffs. From the trash-talking Thunder, to Damian Lillard’s 37-footer, to the quadruple overtime victory, to Game 7 CJ McCollum. Even though the Golden State Warriors swept Portland in the Western Conference Finals, the 2018-19 season became a part of franchise lore.
So let’s relive those moments with a little revisionist history. I’m going to adjust segments of last year’s postseason and you have to make the right decisions to advance the Blazers to the finals and win the championship. To start, we will travel back to April 10 to replay Game 82 against the Sacramento Kings.
