The NBA as currently constituted tells you and the teams in it that you either win big or lose big, but anything shy of either is in the big picture a commitment to losing long-term - and that sucks.
Many fans of the Trail Blazers find themselves conflicted, as the team's recent victories aren’t just wins but rather a contradiction to the current league’s focus on either extreme of winning or losing.
While some might be discontent about the team's surprising success, it highlights a deeper issue with the league’s approach, placing undue pressure on teams to tread one of two extremes.
It's frustrating for fans to be put in a position where rooting for their team’s success feels counterproductive to the larger objective of building a competitive future.
