We recently compiled a list of the
Top 10 Most Memorable Moments from the 2007-2008 season. But it was such a great season that we knew you, the fans, would have your own opinions on which plays were the most spectacular.
Here are your picks for the top moments from last season. If you haven't submitted your favorite moment,

I would have to say Outlaw's block on Kleiza but even more so was Roy's block on Carmelo on Denvers previous possession. That showed that we were a force to be reckoned with. Also the emphatic IN YOUR FACE for #10 helps.

The B-Roy ally-oop 3ptr when the shot clock was expiring and was passed the ball he caught & shot in mid air and still made the bucket.

Outlaw posterizes 76er's Carney
Devine D.
Block Party! Youre not invited! LA v. Blazers April 8th. LA GOT NOTHING!
Ben N.
Outlaw posterizes the guy on the Sixers. I was in the 4th row and I was awestruck! It was amazing!
Riley W.
Its too tough but the two outlaw dunks from Sergio were out of control and paints a picture for the future ! (Roy's All-Star moments also).
Michael
Well, Outlaw's dunk had to be one of my most memorable moments this season. It was in one word, sick, and showcases why we need to hold on to the incredible athleticism that is Travis Outlaw. He is going to blow up and become the next Ginobili. Just watch.
Elliot
Travis' game winner against Josh Smith in Atlanta.
That epitomized the strides hes made re: BBall IQ. Letting the clock wind down, staying calm cool & collected, stepping back from the defender and taking the shot. MR 4th Quarter CLUTCH!
Jeff R.
Outlaw puts stop on Denver, that was a great game
Dana H.
Brandon Roy"s "did you see that moment". I was in Portland on holidays from Australia and I got along to see that game. The atmosphere was great as they were right in the middle of "the streak". I will always be able to say yes I did see that! GO BLAZERS.
Phil C.
The shot that started the streak. But the most memorable part of it was Outlaws description of it afterward. "O my, thats going to get it. . . . " Travis does not say much but when he does it is priceless.
Ray
Travis Outlaw's winning shot against Memphis. It was a tough shot, Portland needed a win on the road, plus it got the winning steak started.
Danny L.
Brandon Roy switching hands to prevent the Bosh block was the most amazing thing I have ever seen, and I got to see it live. I was up in the 300 level, and I saw Roy driving and Bosh getting ready for what he probably thought was going to be a monster block. Roy deftly switched hands and laid it in. The best part was the stunned crowd, which took a half second to react. It was so awesome most of the crowd couldn't believe it. But then they realized hey, this IS Brandon Roy!
Eric W.
Travis's block in Denver was amazing. The clip here doesn't show it but before the block Klieza releases early, Travis looks around for him then starts running at a dead sprint, then blocks the shot. Perfect.
Joe
Watching Brandon Roy in the All-Star game gave me a lot of pride and made me happy to be a Blazer fan again.
Joe L.
It was actually one I didn't see...my brother told me about it and when I saw this list, I was sure it would be on there. It was a late season win against the Lakers at home and my brother said Brandon Roy did this cross over move on Luke Walton (I think) that almost broke his ankles. I wish I could have seen it!
Todd J.
Sergio to Outlaw for the behind the head dunk.
Art F.
Travis Outlaw's 4-point play to tie the game @ Toronto ranks in my top 10, even though they lost that game. They never quit, which perhaps is the signature of this team.
Chris
Can't choose, all great, I liked the players identifying their favorite!!
Karen J.
Travis Outlaws buzzer beaters, one in Memphis the other I think in Minnesota. Draining a three and getting fouled and getting the foul shot was AMAZING. T-Law is the Man.
Nate S.
Outlaws buzzer beater that started streak: Because he proved what my friends (Laker fans), said just before Outlaws final play: "Until the Blazers can win a close game, in the final seconds, they will not be a team to worry about!" Need I say anymore? Boom-chawka-laka!!!
Keith R.
13 straight win!!!!
Makoto
I think the whole season was memorable, just seeing the unexpected growth of such a young team... I'm proud to be a Blazer!
Kiss
The entire 2nd half of the home game against the Atlanta Hawks should be on the list. For how poor we played in the first half, the second half was a masterpiece. The scary part, is my favorite play is the defense that Roy played on Joe Johnson in the final seconds. What a game, what a season, what a team. Other teams should be scared of the footsteps coming behind them. Go Blazers!!!
Chris
When Brandon Roy got his first triple double right after his first all star selection
Howard P.
Travis Outlaws game winner to start the win streak
Tim D.
Jarrett wears his heart on his sleeve. Whether he's having an off-night or one of the best of his career, you can tell he really cares about his performance on the floor. When Jarrett hits a big shot, his emotion is strong and carries through to the team and the fans. Jarrett's character is a staple of the hard working Blazers team, and I love to see it pay off!

1) Learning at the Rose Garden Draft Party that KP is a genius! Dumping salary & Z-Bo to the Knicks and converting that trade into James Jones and Channing Frye!
2) 20 second sequence vs Kings (Nov 23) at Rose Garden. Blazers down by one, 84-83, with :25 to play. Blazers inbound after their timeout and Roy drives to rack & scores! But the defensive play shortly thereafter was the Memorable Moment. After a Kings timeout with 13 seconds to play, the Blazers pressure the Kings in the backcourt - Garcia receives a pass near halfcourt where Roy plays him beautifully and draws the offensive foul to ice the game! Outlaw free throws seal the game, but it was Roy taking the charge AT HALFCOURT which is truly a MEMORABLE MOMENT!

Brandon Roy V.S the Atlanta Hawks
Chris
Gotta be Outlaw's block. Probably a bit of a bias because I attended that game, but I hadn't seen the Rose Garden that alive in years!
Michael Z
Both games against New York. they were the best. New York definitely played hard as every NBA team should play despite their record they brought it each night against Portland. I was at Claudias bar in Hawthorne and Portland was way down at the half, just about everyone at the bar had thrown in the towel, but I kept the faith. Portland roared back coming from halftime and it turned out to be a great game. Randolph played well and hit some great shots and i wish him well he is a one of the top offensive threats in my opinion but I am glad with what we have now. Rip city!
Wilson L.
Against the Lakers, when Roy was fouled hard by Odom. I really like how the whole team, led by Aldridge of all people, stood up for their star. I know it wasn't a play, but it was my favorite moment of the season.
Gordon
When Roy made that shot against the nets
Michael
My most favorite moment was the B-Roy switch hand shot. It was just ooh and aahing and Jordan-Like. Plus Brandon is my favorite player
Dominic P.
I enjoyed all of the highlights but one I felt was missed up there was the shot outlaw hit in Josh Smiths face when time was expiring in Atlanta. Maybe its just because Im a huge Outlaw fan but I thought that showed some of his growing up this season cause usually there he would have went to the hole and it was almost like he knew Smith was thinking just that so he gave him the little fake then elevated right over him and stuck it. I was screaming all night from that one
James S.
Its hard from the shot that started it all to Roys hand switching layup but
it has to be this one.
Its a topper to our great season Travis back to back halfcourt alley-oops
Junior
The 13th game was my fav because we were down by like 10 to 18 or something and we came back and won also Travis Outlaw had the dunk of the year for the blazers left handed even. Go B - ROY for next years MVP
Darrell B.
Joel Przybilla getting 26 boards was my mom memorable game of the season. While all the other games are great right now. No one will remember them in 5 years. Joel tying the team record against the clippers will never be forgotten.
