Latest news and updates about the Trail Blazers
Despite a spirited 21-point comeback, the Portland Trail Blazers fell to the Detroit Pistons 102-110 on Monday night. The first half was sloppy, to put it kindly.

We got a few Blazer’s Edge staffers to write about that team. Kevin Lawler Don’t talk much about the 1999-2000 Portland Trail Blazers. It’s too painful. There are too […]
As the Portland Trail Blazers are about to host the Eastern Conference leading Detroit Pistons Monday night, the franchise has decided to honor its historical 1999-2000 incarnation.

The Portland Trail Blazers are facing off against the Detroit Pistons at home in the first game of a long five-game homestand. Portland is coming into this game off the back of two straight wins over the Sacramento Kings, and on a three-game win streak all together. On the other side, Detroit currently sits atop […]
Portland Trail Blazers wing Jerami Grant may miss another game with Achille soreness, this time against his old team the Detroit Pistons.

Three Portland Trail Blazers made the list… and in their view, none of them will command much of a return: Coming in at No. 19 was Robert Williams III: Trade Value: […]
Both of these teams played yesterday. The Houston Rockets had a matinee game against the Denver Nuggets (which Houston won, of course) and the Sacramento Kings lost at home against the Portland Trail Blazers. As I have mentioned before, the three-game trips to California have not always gone well for Ime Udoka’s Rockets, but they […]
The Portland Trail Blazers beat the Sacramento Kings 98-93 on Saturday evening, but that relatively-pedestrian score in a relatively-pedestrian game is not what people will remember from this outing ten months, or ten years, from now. Instead they’ll be talking about a dunk that had NOTHING to do with pedestrian. It was air-flighted in over […]
Lightning may never strike in the same place twice, but the 98-93 victory by the Portland Trail Blazers versus the Kings in Sacramento tonight suggests that it can definitely hit the same NBA team twice if that team changes locations. After a controversial triumph over the Kings two nights ago in Portland, the Blazers thundered […]
For the second game in a row, the Portland Trail Blazers and Sacramento Kings played a close contest into the closing minutes of the fourth period. Thursday night’s affair went into overtime before Portland emerged with a single-point victory. Today the Blazers did slightly better. They scored far fewer points but the margin of victory […]

Scoot Henderson is yet to take the court for the Portland Trail Blazers this season. The third-year point guard suffered what now appears to be a pretty severe left hamstring injury, sustained during a September offseason workout. It’s a shame for the 21-year-old who needs this season to silence his critics, including this writer, before […]
The Portland Trail Blazers could enter Saturday night’s rematch with the Sacramento Kings without Jerami Grant.

The NBA has released its Last Two Minute Report from the Portland Trail Blazers’ nail-biting 134-133 win over the Sacramento Kings on Thursday night, and it’s a vindicating one for Rip City fans.

The Portland Trail Blazers are rumored to be buyers in the current NBA Trade Season cycle. Looking to improve their roster, they’ll be strategizing to bring extra talent on board between now and the February 5th NBA trade deadline. Bringing on talent implies sending out talent as well. That brings up a discussion question that’s […]
The Portland Trail Blazers aren’t going to apologize for their 134-133 overtime win over the hobbled Sacramento Kings on Thursday night. They may have collapsed in the final minutes of regulation to lose an 18-point lead late at home. A referee’s questionable whistle may have swooped in like the Hand of God to rescue them […]
