It’s been 47 years since the Portland Trail Blazers won the lone NBA Championship in franchise history. It’s been 24 since they were last in a serious hunt for a title. When the distance between relevant teams starts to span decades, fans can get a little antsy. That’s the subject of today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.

I am in my 30s and have been a fan of this franchise since a few years after the last time we made a legitimate run to the conference finals (Y2K). That team at least could call themselves one of the teams to beat if not THE team.
