I've watched 4 games in Portland on 2 different occasions; my high school basketball team went on a "small" trip (Portland) every 2 years and a "big" trip (Orlando/LA) every other year. Thus, I've gotten to watch several Lakers/Clippers/Magic games when I was younger...Didn't hurt to play on the senior team in grade 10, nor did it hurt to coach the team in my year after graduation.

Anywho, the games in Portland were awesome...They have some of the most loyal fans in the NBA...Atmosphere is awesome, especially in the lower bowl, and their fans playfully hassle you if you're a fan of the opposition. All in all, it's an awesome experience.
I got to watch this game:
Nice to see Greg Oden play when he was actually somewhat healthy...poor guy.
