The Chase Is On

Welcome to the official Rip City Mafia blog, home of the Rip City Mafia and some of the best Blazers content you'll find on the web. This is a blog run by Blazer fans and thus, you'll be getting a fans perspective, which could appear to be a lil black and red at times lol. but if you're here you should like that anyways. So this is the official first blog of the site and what else could we be talking about? The playoff chase of course. Blazers magic number is down to 1, meaning if the Blazers win 1 more game or the Phoenix Suns lose 1 more game, the Blazers would clinch a playoff spot. that doesn't seem good enough anymore tho, i want home court and i think all of you do too. Right now the Blazers are sitting at the 4th spot in the west, just a half game ahead of the Houston rockets. with 7 games left in the regular season its veeeery possible that the Blazers could pull home court, which would be so helpful in the Blazers making it out of the first round, cuz we all know how rockin' the RG gets. The Blazers are also only a half game behind the Denver Nuggets for the Division title, which also would be amazing if we could pull off (keep an eye on the last game of the season against Denver). Tomorrows game is crucial to the Blazers making a strong finish to the season as a win would give us a little breathing room between us and the Rockets. Be sure to catch it and help root the Blazers on, it starts at 4 Pm and is on KGW. also, as a side note, there is a total of 4 people who will share writing responsibilities of this blog, the original 4 members of the Mafia. We will sign our names after each post so you can keep track of who writes what. We will be using our Mafia names which are; Doc, Mugzy, Dingo, and Mac. So welcome again to the new place to be for Blazers content and remember... Go Blazers!
