The 1991–92 Portland Trail Blazers season was the 22nd season for the Portland Trail Blazers in the National Basketball Association.[1] In the off-season, the Blazers signed undrafted rookie guard Robert Pack.[2][3] After losing three of their first four games, the team would quickly recover as they held a 32–14 record at the All-Star break.[4] The Blazers finished their season with a 57–25 record,[5] earning their second straight Pacific Division championship and 10th consecutive trip to the NBA Playoffs.[6]

Clyde Drexler averaged 25.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.8 steals per game, and was named to the All-NBA First Team, selected for the 1992 NBA All-Star Game,[7][8] and finished a distant second to Michael Jordan in the MVP ballot.[9][10][11] In addition, Terry Porter averaged 18.1 points, 5.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game, while Jerome Kersey provided the team with 12.6 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game, and Buck Williams contributed 11.3 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, and was named to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team. Sixth man Clifford Robinson averaged 12.4 points and 5.1 rebounds per game off the bench, while Kevin Duckworth provided with 10.7 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, and Danny Ainge contributed 9.7 points per game off the bench.[12]

The Blazers began their postseason run by defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 3–1 in the Western Conference First Round,[13][14][15] eliminating the Lakers for the first time since Portland's championship season of 1977; the Lakers had beaten the Blazers in four playoff series since then, including most recently the 1991 Western Conference finals. The Blazers proceeded to defeat the Phoenix Suns, 4–1 in the Western Conference Semi-finals,[16][17][18][19] and Karl Malone and John Stockton's Utah Jazz, 4–2 in the Western Conference finals,[20][21][22][23] earning their second trip to the NBA Finals in three years, and a matchup with the defending champion Chicago Bulls. The Blazers' dream of winning their second NBA title, however, was stifled by the Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen-led Bulls, who defeated the Blazers 4–2 and won their second straight NBA title.[24][25][26][27][28] Following the season, Ainge signed as a free agent with the Phoenix Suns,[29][30][31] and Pack was traded to the Denver Nuggets.[32][33][34]

For the season, the Blazers changed their primary logo, which showed the team name next to red and black lines curling into each other,[35] and redesigned their uniforms.[36][37] The logo and uniforms both remained in use until 2002.

As of 2024, this season was the last time the Trail Blazers had reached the NBA Finals.
