The 1990 Portland Trail Blazers were like a riddle; theoretically, this shouldn't have been the best Trail Blazers team.
In 1989, the team experienced failure, losing an important player ranked second on the team, and although new players were added in the summer, they were all unproven European players.
The overall structure of the team did not undergo any substantial change compared to before.
The team changed owners and management, including me, a "traitor" who came from Los Angeles all by myself—a term people from Los Angeles would occasionally use to refer to me even long afterwards.
Throughout the season I kept trying to make trades, hoping to bring a better frontcourt to the team, or to resolve our defensive issues in the backcourt.
