  • They were the bad boys of the Northwest. A collection of players and characters tossed together in haphazard fashion; collectively forming teams that became infamous despite limited success.This is the story behind Portland's Jail Blazers era.

    The Jail Blazers title was overall well earned, but it always struck me as weird that Rasheed was the figure head between the weed charge and the fact he was kinda right a lot of the times about the refs.
    The fact that he then ended up a key piece of one of the most functional teams in the 2000s and even tried to deescalate the Malice at the Palace I feel backs up my belief that Sheed was done dirty.

    You see a lot of pro athletes talk about how tough there neighborhood was growin' up. "If u gonna make it in the hood, u gotta join a gang or be a dealer. To make it outta the hood, u gotta be a rapper, or a ball player." Then we see these young incredibly talented players go to Portland Oregon of all places and find themselves in more trouble than they got in back in the neighborhoods they say were so rough.
    Imagine tellin that to a young kid with great potential - "Don't be gettin involved with those street gangs kid. Just focus on your school & your game. Because someday you'll be an adult in a gang called the Portland TrailBlazers. And you'll get to witness some of the same violence & be in just as much legal trouble as if you were in a gang. But at least you'll make alotta money."

    The jail blazers era was more Portland fans pretending to take a moral stance over the character of the players on their roster, when the reality was they were frustrated with their team clearly eroding from being legit contenders the previous few seasons. They just never seemed to fully recover from their 4th quarter collapse in game 7 of the WCF at LA. The team gradually regressed the following seasons and once it got to the point where it began to be a struggle just to make it to the playoffs, that’s when Portland fans started complaining about their off the court issues.

      No doubt. Rasheed was a saint compared to some of the other guys cause his worst offense was smoking weed yet he's the first guy people think of when they hear Jail Blazers. Granted it's probably because he was the star of that team but still.
